Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

Oceanography
Glacier
Sea ice

Ice shelf, Oceanography, Sea ice, Antarctic sea ice and Ice sheet are his primary areas of study. His biological study focuses on Continental shelf. Iceberg is the focus of his Sea ice research.

His Antarctic sea ice study deals with Antarctic ice sheet intersecting with Remote sensing, Geomorphology, Glacier and Sea surface temperature. Ice sheet is often connected to Ice stream in his work. His Melt pond study in the realm of Arctic ice pack connects with subjects such as Materials science.

His most cited work include:

Ice-Shelf Melting Around Antarctica (630 citations)
Rapid Bottom Melting Widespread near Antarctic Ice Sheet Grounding Lines (419 citations)
Stronger ocean circulation and increased melting under Pine Island Glacier ice shelf (392 citations)

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

Stanley S. Jacobs mostly deals with Oceanography, Ice shelf, Sea ice, Antarctic sea ice and Ice sheet. His research integrates issues of Glacier and Climatology in his study of Oceanography. His Ice shelf research incorporates themes from Iceberg, Front, Sea surface temperature, Meltwater and Geomorphology.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Sea ice, Thermohaline circulation are connected with Ocean current and other disciplines. His research in Antarctic sea ice is mostly focused on Fast ice. His Continental shelf research incorporates elements of Bottom water, Salinity, Circumpolar deep water and Bathymetry.

He most often published in these fields:

Oceanography (89.02%)
Ice shelf (63.41%)
Sea ice (47.56%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2017)?

Oceanography (89.02%)
Ice shelf (63.41%)
Ice stream (21.95%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Oceanography, Ice shelf, Ice stream, Sea ice and Ice sheet. His research in Oceanography intersects with topics in Glacier and Climatology. His Ice shelf research includes elements of Iceberg and Front.

Stanley S. Jacobs combines subjects such as Bay, Ocean current and Forcing with his study of Sea ice. His Ice sheet research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Meltwater, Glacier morphology and Glacier ice accumulation. While the research belongs to areas of Glacier ice accumulation, Stanley S. Jacobs spends his time largely on the problem of Ice tongue, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Glacier mass balance.

Between 2010 and 2017, his most popular works were:

Ice-Shelf Melting Around Antarctica (630 citations)
Stronger ocean circulation and increased melting under Pine Island Glacier ice shelf (392 citations)
Origin and Evolution of Water Masses Near the Antarctic continental Margin: Evidence from H218O/H216O Ratios in Seawater (253 citations)

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

Oceanography
Glacier
Climate change

Stanley S. Jacobs focuses on Oceanography, Ice sheet, Ice shelf, Ice stream and Sea ice. His studies link Sedimentation with Oceanography. His work in the fields of Sea ice, such as Arctic ice pack and Melt pond, overlaps with other areas such as Materials science.

His Continental shelf study combines topics in areas such as Seawater and Water mass. He interconnects Iceberg, Ice tongue, Geomorphology, Blue ice and Glacier ice accumulation in the investigation of issues within Glacier morphology. He is investigating Antarctic ice sheet as part of his inquiry into Cryosphere and Climatology.
