Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Meteorology
  • Tropical cyclone
  • Climatology

Richard H. Johnson mainly investigates Climatology, Environmental science, Precipitation, Convection and Atmospheric sciences. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Wind shear and Atmosphere. His Precipitation study is concerned with the field of Meteorology as a whole.

His Mesoscale meteorology and Rain gauge study in the realm of Meteorology connects with subjects such as Prospectus, Development team and Research program. His Convection research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Depth sounding, Diurnal cycle and Tropopause. His Atmospheric sciences study incorporates themes from Madden–Julian oscillation, Subsidence and Intertropical Convergence Zone.

His most cited work include:

  • Trimodal Characteristics of Tropical Convection (638 citations)
  • Organizational Modes of Midlatitude Mesoscale Convective Systems (341 citations)
  • Kinematic and Thermodynamic Characteristics of the Flow over the Western Pacific Warm Pool during TOGA COARE (245 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Climatology, Convection, Environmental science, Atmospheric sciences and Meteorology. His work carried out in the field of Climatology brings together such families of science as Depth sounding and Precipitation. His study in Convection is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Wind shear, Cloud cover, Inflow, Advection and Diurnal cycle.

His work in Atmospheric sciences addresses issues such as Atmosphere, which are connected to fields such as Western Hemisphere Warm Pool. His Squall line, Squall, Radiosonde and Mesohigh study, which is part of a larger body of work in Meteorology, is frequently linked to Line, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Mesoscale meteorology research integrates issues from Storm and Middle latitudes.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (58.85%)
  • Convection (34.37%)
  • Environmental science (33.85%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Climatology (58.85%)
  • Environmental science (33.85%)
  • Convection (34.37%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Richard H. Johnson focuses on Climatology, Environmental science, Convection, Atmospheric sciences and Dynamo. The study incorporates disciplines such as Equator, Indian ocean and Precipitation in addition to Climatology. He has included themes like Troposphere, Diurnal cycle, Water vapor and Outflow in his Convection study.

His research integrates issues of Madden–Julian oscillation, Sea surface temperature and Mesoscale meteorology in his study of Atmospheric sciences. The concepts of his Depth sounding study are interwoven with issues in Planetary boundary layer and Intertropical Convergence Zone. His studies in Meteorology integrate themes in fields like Climate model and Field.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The ``Year'' of Tropical Convection (May 2008-April 2010): Climate Variability and Weather Highlights (144 citations)
  • Structure and Properties of Madden–Julian Oscillations Deduced from DYNAMO Sounding Arrays (142 citations)
  • The Great Colorado Flood of September 2013 (129 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Meteorology
  • Tropical cyclone
  • Oceanography

Richard H. Johnson mostly deals with Convection, Environmental science, Climatology, Atmospheric sciences and Madden–Julian oscillation. His study on Convective storm detection is often connected to Ridge as part of broader study in Convection. Climatology is frequently linked to Advection in his study.

The various areas that Richard H. Johnson examines in his Atmospheric sciences study include Graupel, Precipitation and Bow echo. His Madden–Julian oscillation study combines topics in areas such as Depth sounding, Equator, Radiative forcing and Radiative cooling. His Monsoon research incorporates themes from Trough, Storm and Troposphere.
