Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Meteorology
  • Astronomy

His primary areas of investigation include Atmospheric sciences, Mesosphere, Gravity wave, Thermosphere and Amplitude. His Atmospheric sciences research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Atmosphere, Solstice, Latitude and Southern Hemisphere. His Mesosphere study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Wave propagation, Remote sensing, Atmospheric circulation and Kelvin wave.

His work deals with themes such as Momentum transfer, Wavelength and Geophysics, which intersect with Gravity wave. His Thermosphere study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Mesopause and Zonal and meridional. His work deals with themes such as Equinox, Equator and Atmospheric tide, which intersect with Amplitude.

His most cited work include:

  • Empirical wind model for the upper, middle and lower atmosphere (594 citations)
  • An empirical model of the Earth's horizontal wind fields: HWM07 (402 citations)
  • Mesospheric Momentum Flux Studies at Adelaide, Australia: Observations and a Gravity Wave–Tidal Interaction Model (342 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Atmospheric sciences, Mesosphere, Thermosphere, Gravity wave and Atmosphere. His Atmospheric sciences research integrates issues from Amplitude, Climatology and Latitude. His study in the field of Mesopause is also linked to topics like Environmental science.

His work investigates the relationship between Thermosphere and topics such as Meteor that intersect with problems in Meteoroid. The concepts of his Gravity wave study are interwoven with issues in Wavelength, Troposphere and Geophysics. Robert A. Vincent has included themes like Satellite and Altitude in his Atmosphere study.

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2021)?

  • Atmospheric sciences (56.87%)
  • Gravity wave (29.77%)
  • Meteor (12.98%)

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

Robert A. Vincent mainly focuses on Atmospheric sciences, Gravity wave, Meteor, Climatology and Thermosphere. Robert A. Vincent combines topics linked to Latitude with his work on Atmospheric sciences. His Gravity wave research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Wavelength, Atmosphere, Geophysics, Mesopause and Phase velocity.

His study focuses on the intersection of Geophysics and fields such as Gravitational wave with connections in the field of Meteorology. Robert A. Vincent has researched Climatology in several fields, including Amplitude, Solstice and Wavenumber. His research in Thermosphere tackles topics such as Polar which are related to areas like Coupling, Equator and Vertical velocity.

Between 2009 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Recent developments in gravity‐wave effects in climate models and the global distribution of gravity‐wave momentum flux from observations and models (335 citations)
  • Amplification of the quasi-two day wave through nonlinear interaction with the migrating diurnal tide (53 citations)
  • Radiosonde observations of gravity waves in the lower stratosphere over Davis, Antarctica (32 citations)

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

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Meteorology
  • Astronomy

Atmospheric sciences, Gravity wave, Mesosphere, Meteor and Wavelength are his primary areas of study. His work carried out in the field of Gravity wave brings together such families of science as Momentum transfer, Mechanics, Meteorology and Geophysics. His research on Mesosphere often connects related areas such as Thermosphere.

His Thermosphere research includes themes of Mesopause and Planetary science. Robert A. Vincent interconnects Satellite and Microwave Limb Sounder in the investigation of issues within Meteor. As part of the same scientific family, Robert A. Vincent usually focuses on Wavelength, concentrating on Internal wave and intersecting with Stratosphere, Quasi-biennial oscillation, Wave packet and Radiosonde.
