Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Meteorology
  • Statistics

Robert M. Key spends much of his time researching Oceanography, Ocean current, Carbon cycle, Climatology and World Ocean Circulation Experiment. His work on Water column and Water mass as part of general Oceanography study is frequently connected to Alkalinity, Flux and Anthropogenic factor, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. His Carbon cycle research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Seawater and Aragonite.

Robert M. Key works mostly in the field of Aragonite, limiting it down to topics relating to Carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere and, in certain cases, Revelle factor and Ocean acidification. His studies in World Ocean Circulation Experiment integrate themes in fields like Oceanic carbon cycle and Meteorology. His study looks at the relationship between Meteorology and topics such as Atmospheric sciences, which overlap with Hydrography and Sink.

His most cited work include:

  • Anthropogenic ocean acidification over the twenty-first century and its impact on calcifying organisms (3173 citations)
  • The oceanic sink for anthropogenic CO2. (2770 citations)
  • A global ocean carbon climatology: Results from Global Data Analysis Project (GLODAP) (1227 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Oceanography, Climatology, Hydrography, Seawater and Alkalinity. Robert M. Key has researched Oceanography in several fields, including Carbon cycle and Biogeochemical cycle. His biological study deals with issues like Meteorology, which deal with fields such as Cruise.

His Hydrography research includes elements of Consistency, Arctic, Data set and The arctic. His study in Ocean current focuses on World Ocean Circulation Experiment in particular. His World Ocean Circulation Experiment research incorporates themes from Oceanic carbon cycle and Ocean heat content, Thermohaline circulation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (57.97%)
  • Climatology (26.81%)
  • Hydrography (16.67%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Atmospheric sciences (10.87%)
  • Dissolved organic carbon (12.32%)
  • Oceanography (57.97%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Atmospheric sciences, Dissolved organic carbon, Oceanography, Alkalinity and Salinity. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Ancillary data, Hydrography and Carbon sink. In his research, Sea surface temperature, Lead and Ocean deoxygenation is intimately related to Biogeochemical cycle, which falls under the overarching field of Dissolved organic carbon.

His biological study focuses on Upwelling. Robert M. Key integrates Alkalinity with Climatology in his research. The various areas that Robert M. Key examines in his Climatology study include Pacific ocean, Carbon cycle and Ocean acidification.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The oceanic sink for anthropogenic CO2 from 1994 to 2007 (148 citations)
  • GLODAPv2.2019 – an update of GLODAPv2 (32 citations)
  • Current CaCO3 dissolution at the seafloor caused by anthropogenic CO2 (27 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Meteorology
  • Climate change

His main research concerns Salinity, Atmospheric sciences, Biogeochemical cycle, Global Ocean Data Analysis Project and Dissolved organic carbon. The concepts of his Atmospheric sciences study are interwoven with issues in Hydrography, Total inorganic carbon and Sink. He has included themes like Sea surface temperature, Lead and Ocean deoxygenation in his Biogeochemical cycle study.

His research in Global Ocean Data Analysis Project intersects with topics in World Ocean Atlas and Carbon cycle. His Dissolved organic carbon research entails a greater understanding of Oceanography. Specifically, his work in Seawater is concerned with the study of Ocean acidification.
