Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Ecology
  • Mechanical engineering

His primary areas of study are Reef, Coral reef, Oceanography, Mechanics and Ecology. His work on Fringing reef as part of general Reef study is frequently linked to Wave setup, bridging the gap between disciplines. His research integrates issues of Breaking wave, Benthic zone, Sea level and Geomorphology in his study of Coral reef.

His study in Mechanics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Gravity current, Canopy and Optics. In the field of Ecology, his study on Seagrass overlaps with subjects such as Biological dispersal and Population density. His Global warming research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Coral bleaching, Anthozoa and La Niña.

His most cited work include:

  • Global warming and recurrent mass bleaching of corals (1241 citations)
  • Spatial and temporal patterns of mass bleaching of corals in the Anthropocene. (696 citations)
  • Spectral wave dissipation over a barrier reef (226 citations)

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

Ryan J. Lowe mostly deals with Oceanography, Reef, Coral reef, Fringing reef and Mechanics. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Oceanography, Shore is strongly linked to Sediment transport. His Reef study also includes

  • Breaking wave that connect with fields like Wave height,
  • Benthic zone that intertwine with fields like Seagrass.

Ryan J. Lowe works in the field of Coral reef, focusing on Coral bleaching in particular. His biological study deals with issues like Canopy, which deal with fields such as Attenuation and Drag. His Submarine pipeline research integrates issues from Storm and Upwelling.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (59.79%)
  • Reef (42.78%)
  • Coral reef (31.96%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Oceanography (59.79%)
  • Reef (42.78%)
  • Coral reef (31.96%)

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

Ryan J. Lowe focuses on Oceanography, Reef, Coral reef, Submarine pipeline and Breaking wave. The Oceanography study combines topics in areas such as Seagrass and El Niño Southern Oscillation. He works mostly in the field of Reef, limiting it down to topics relating to Water level and, in certain cases, Coastal erosion, as a part of the same area of interest.

His Coral reef study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Climate change and Effects of global warming on oceans. His work carried out in the field of Submarine pipeline brings together such families of science as Wave model, Swash and Wave height. The various areas that Ryan J. Lowe examines in his Breaking wave study include Shoaling and schooling, Mechanics, Kondratiev wave and Bathymetry.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Seasonal and interannual variability of the wave climate at a wave energy hotspot off the southwestern coast of Australia (14 citations)
  • Towards modelling the future risk of cyclone wave damage to the world's coral reefs. (7 citations)
  • Steps to develop early warning systems and future scenarios of storm wave-driven flooding along coral reef-lined coasts (5 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Ecology
  • Mechanical engineering

His primary scientific interests are in Coral reef, Oceanography, Submarine pipeline, Great barrier reef and Storm. His Coral reef study incorporates themes from Typhoon and Tropical cyclone. The concepts of his Submarine pipeline study are interwoven with issues in Wave model, Shore and Wave height.

His Wave height research includes themes of Sediment transport, Sediment, Swash and Geomorphology. His work investigates the relationship between Storm and topics such as Coastal flood that intersect with problems in Reef. His Reef research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Coastal erosion and Water level.
