2015 - Fellow of American Geophysical Union (AGU)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Statistics
  • Optics

Internal wave, Geophysics, Internal tide, Energy flux and Turbulence are his primary areas of study. His research integrates issues of Breaking wave, Baroclinity, Richardson number and Geodesy in his study of Internal wave. His Geodesy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Diel vertical migration, Meteorology, Shoal and Sonar.

His studies deal with areas such as Surface wave and Ocean current as well as Geophysics. His Internal tide study is concerned with Oceanography in general. His Turbulence study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Climatology, Thermal diffusivity, Atmospheric sciences and Dissipation.

His most cited work include:

  • Diurnal cycling: Observations and models of the upper ocean response to diurnal heating, cooling, and wind mixing (935 citations)
  • Surface Heat Budget of the Arctic Ocean (426 citations)
  • From tides to mixing along the Hawaiian ridge. (275 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal wave, Oceanography, Geophysics, Sonar and Geodesy. His Internal wave research integrates issues from Thermocline, Climatology, Baroclinity and Turbulence. In the subject of general Climatology, his work in Sea ice is often linked to Environmental science, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

The Turbulence study combines topics in areas such as Thermal diffusivity, Atmospheric sciences and Dissipation. Geomorphology is closely connected to Ridge in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Geophysics. His Geodesy study combines topics in areas such as Wavenumber and Buoyancy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal wave (54.23%)
  • Oceanography (24.65%)
  • Geophysics (23.94%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Internal wave (54.23%)
  • Oceanography (24.65%)
  • Monsoon (5.63%)

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

Robert Pinkel focuses on Internal wave, Oceanography, Monsoon, Bay and Geophysics. The concepts of his Internal wave study are interwoven with issues in Thermocline, Baroclinity and Geodesy. His work carried out in the field of Baroclinity brings together such families of science as Channel, Turbulence, Sonar and Barotropic fluid.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Transect and Instability. Robert Pinkel combines subjects such as Stratification, Mixed layer and Indian ocean with his study of Monsoon. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Turbulent mixing, Climate change, Climate model, Global climate and Broad bandwidth.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Climate Process Team on Internal Wave–Driven Ocean Mixing (97 citations)
  • ASIRI: An Ocean–Atmosphere Initiative for Bay of Bengal (34 citations)
  • Reflection of Linear Internal Tides from Realistic Topography: The Tasman Continental Slope (28 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Statistics
  • Optics

His primary scientific interests are in Internal wave, Oceanography, Bay, Monsoon and BENGAL. His work deals with themes such as Climatology, Mountain wave and Geodesy, which intersect with Internal wave. In his articles, he combines various disciplines, including Climatology and Environmental science.

Robert Pinkel interconnects Instability, Transect and Geophysics in the investigation of issues within Geodesy. His Stratification research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Winter monsoon, Indian ocean, Precipitation and Spatial variability. His Mesoscale meteorology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Halocline, Atmosphere, Predictability, Sea ice and The arctic.
