Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Statistics
  • Oceanography
  • Meteorology

Robert A. Holman spends much of his time researching Meteorology, Shore, Swash, Shoal and Remote sensing. Robert A. Holman combines subjects such as Elevation, Plage and Geodesy with his study of Meteorology. His Geodesy research incorporates themes from Wavelength, Range and Wave setup.

His work carried out in the field of Swash brings together such families of science as Soil science, Sediment transport, Wave height, Hydrology and Breaking wave. The Shoal study combines topics in areas such as Bar, Field and Flexibility. His Remote sensing research includes elements of Sampling, Ground truth, Drifter and Calibration.

His most cited work include:

  • Empirical parameterization of setup, swash, and runup (716 citations)
  • Practical use of video imagery in nearshore oceanographic field studies (437 citations)
  • The spatial and temporal variability of sand bar morphology (372 citations)

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

Robert A. Holman mostly deals with Surf zone, Bathymetry, Remote sensing, Meteorology and Shore. The study incorporates disciplines such as Submarine pipeline, Wave setup, Amplitude, Seismology and Breaking wave in addition to Surf zone. The various areas that Robert A. Holman examines in his Submarine pipeline study include Shoal and Atmospheric sciences.

His study focuses on the intersection of Shoal and fields such as Geodesy with connections in the field of Swash. His work on Remote sensing as part of general Remote sensing research is frequently linked to Argus and Image processing, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. He has included themes like Elevation, Bar, Beach morphodynamics and Plage in his Meteorology study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Surf zone (24.85%)
  • Bathymetry (24.26%)
  • Remote sensing (21.89%)

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

  • Bathymetry (24.26%)
  • Oceanography (18.34%)
  • Surf zone (24.85%)

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

His primary areas of study are Bathymetry, Oceanography, Surf zone, Meteorology and Shore. His research in Bathymetry intersects with topics in Geodesy, Inversion, Ground truth, Remote sensing and Data assimilation. His research in Geodesy intersects with topics in Scale, Structural basin and Shoal.

Robert A. Holman works mostly in the field of Ground truth, limiting it down to topics relating to Algorithm and, in certain cases, Swash, as a part of the same area of interest. His work on Storm, Submarine pipeline and Inlet as part of general Oceanography study is frequently linked to Delta, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. The concepts of his Meteorology study are interwoven with issues in Pixel and Flow.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • cBathy: A robust algorithm for estimating nearshore bathymetry (104 citations)
  • Remote Sensing of the Nearshore (85 citations)
  • Shoreline variability from days to decades: Results of long‐term video imaging (41 citations)

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

  • Statistics
  • Oceanography
  • Optics

Bathymetry, Remote sensing, Shore, Data assimilation and Surf zone are his primary areas of study. The Bathymetry study combines topics in areas such as Algorithm, Surface wave, Ocean current and Velocity factor. He incorporates Remote sensing and Argus in his studies.

His Shore study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Light intensity, Annual cycle, Longshore drift and Forcing. His Data assimilation research integrates issues from Remote sensing, Empirical orthogonal functions, Wave height, Wavenumber and Ground truth. His Surf zone research includes themes of Seismology and Dispersion.
