Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climatology
  • Meteorology
  • Tropical cyclone

Serge Janicot mainly focuses on Climatology, Monsoon, Intertropical Convergence Zone, Atmospheric circulation and Sea surface temperature. By researching both Climatology and West africa, he produces research that crosses academic boundaries. His study in Monsoon is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Tropical Atlantic, Phenology and Wet season.

His work in Intertropical Convergence Zone addresses subjects such as Convergence zone, which are connected to disciplines such as Composite analysis, Anticyclone and Tropical wave. He interconnects Hadley cell and Moisture advection in the investigation of issues within Atmospheric circulation. His Sea surface temperature research is included under the broader classification of Oceanography.

His most cited work include:

  • The West African Monsoon Dynamics. Part II: The “Preonset” and “Onset” of the Summer Monsoon (387 citations)
  • Seasonality and atmospheric dynamics of the teleconnection between African rainfall and tropical sea‐surface temperature: Atlantic vs. ENSO (279 citations)
  • Abrupt shift of the ITCZ over West Africa and intra‐seasonal variability (232 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Climatology, Monsoon, Intertropical Convergence Zone, Sea surface temperature and Atmospheric circulation. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Atmospheric sciences and Precipitation. His Monsoon study introduces a deeper knowledge of Oceanography.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Zonal and meridional, North Atlantic oscillation, Global warming, Anomaly and Equator in addition to Sea surface temperature. Serge Janicot focuses mostly in the field of Atmospheric circulation, narrowing it down to matters related to Hadley cell and, in some cases, Moisture advection. His Teleconnection study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Mediterranean sea and Wet season.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (80.00%)
  • Monsoon (53.00%)
  • Intertropical Convergence Zone (22.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2020)?

  • Climatology (80.00%)
  • Oceanography (20.00%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (21.00%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Climatology, Oceanography, Atmospheric sciences, Monsoon and Precipitation. His work on Atmospheric circulation and Sea surface temperature is typically connected to Sensitivity and Probabilistic logic as part of general Climatology study, connecting several disciplines of science. In his study, Zonal and meridional, Pressure gradient and Anomaly is strongly linked to Equator, which falls under the umbrella field of Atmospheric circulation.

The various areas that Serge Janicot examines in his Atmospheric sciences study include Climate pattern, Climate model and Water vapor. His Monsoon research incorporates elements of Climate change and Tropics. His study on Precipitation also encompasses disciplines like

  • Weather Research and Forecasting Model which connect with Atmospheric model, Tropical Atlantic, Radiosonde and Microphysics,
  • Forcing and Global warming most often made with reference to Water cycle.

Between 2013 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Frequency of extreme Sahelian storms tripled since 1982 in satellite observations (132 citations)
  • Variability and predictability of West African droughts: a review on the role of sea surface temperature anomalies. (105 citations)
  • Recent climatological trend of the Saharan heat low and its impact on the West African climate (29 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Meteorology
  • Climatology

Atmospheric sciences, Climatology, Climate change, Climate model and Monsoon are his primary areas of study. His Atmospheric sciences study incorporates themes from Climate pattern, Water vapor and Water cycle. His studies deal with areas such as Atmosphere and Oceanography as well as Climatology.

His Climate change research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ocean current and Seasonality. The Climate model study combines topics in areas such as Global warming, Storm and Satellite imagery. His Monsoon study combines topics in areas such as Precipitation, Atmospheric models and Numerical weather prediction.
