Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Optics
  • Statistics
  • Meteorology

Atmospheric sciences, Troposphere, Radiative transfer, Atmospheric radiative transfer codes and Meteorology are his primary areas of study. As part of his studies on Atmospheric sciences, Robert Spurr frequently links adjacent subjects like Aerosol. His study in Troposphere is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cloud fraction, Stratosphere, Water vapor and Atmospheric chemistry.

His work deals with themes such as Rayleigh scattering, Remote sensing and Raman spectroscopy, which intersect with Radiative transfer. The Remote sensing study combines topics in areas such as Wavelength and Trace gas. His studies deal with areas such as Scattering, Ordinate and Computation as well as Atmospheric radiative transfer codes.

His most cited work include:

  • An improved retrieval of tropospheric nitrogen dioxide from GOME (312 citations)
  • Ring effect studies: Rayleigh scattering, including molecular parameters for rotational Raman scattering, and the Fraunhofer spectrum. (311 citations)
  • Air mass factor formulation for spectroscopic measurements from satellites: Application to formaldehyde retrievals from the Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment (253 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Remote sensing, Meteorology, Radiative transfer, Aerosol and Atmospheric sciences. His research in Remote sensing intersects with topics in Ozone Monitoring Instrument, Spectrometer, Trace gas and Nadir. His Meteorology research incorporates themes from Cloud top and Differential optical absorption spectroscopy.

Robert Spurr usually deals with Radiative transfer and limits it to topics linked to Scattering and Polarization. His Aerosol research includes themes of Optimal estimation and Hyperspectral imaging. He interconnects Atmosphere and Atmospheric chemistry in the investigation of issues within Atmospheric sciences.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Remote sensing (57.89%)
  • Meteorology (32.63%)
  • Radiative transfer (32.11%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Remote sensing (57.89%)
  • Aerosol (24.21%)
  • Meteorology (32.63%)

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

Remote sensing, Aerosol, Meteorology, Ozone Monitoring Instrument and Radiative transfer are his primary areas of study. Robert Spurr is interested in Radiance, which is a branch of Remote sensing. His work carried out in the field of Aerosol brings together such families of science as Satellite remote sensing, Spectroradiometer, Atmospheric sciences and Ultraviolet.

His research in the fields of Chemical transport model overlaps with other disciplines such as Submarine pipeline. The concepts of his Meteorology study are interwoven with issues in Optimal estimation and Hyperspectral imaging. His studies in Radiative transfer integrate themes in fields like Light scattering, Computational physics, Mathematical physics, Artificial neural network and Ordinate.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Tropospheric emissions: Monitoring of pollution (TEMPO) (143 citations)
  • High-Resolution Satellite-Derived PM2.5 from Optimal Estimation and Geographically Weighted Regression over North America (137 citations)
  • Using the OMI aerosol index and absorption aerosol optical depth to evaluate the NASA MERRA Aerosol Reanalysis (118 citations)

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

  • Optics
  • Meteorology
  • Statistics

Robert Spurr focuses on Meteorology, Remote sensing, Ozone Monitoring Instrument, Atmospheric sciences and Aerosol. His study in Remote sensing is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Differential optical absorption spectroscopy, Plume and Moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Ozone Monitoring Instrument, narrowing it down to issues related to the Spectrometer, and often Inversion.

Robert Spurr combines subjects such as Mineral dust and Geographically Weighted Regression with his study of Atmospheric sciences. His Aerosol research incorporates themes from Optimal estimation and Radiative transfer. His Troposphere research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Albedo and Trace gas.
