What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Oceanography
- Climate change
- Erosion
His primary areas of study are Oceanography, Coastal erosion, Sea level, Shore and Sea level rise.
His Coastal erosion study combines topics in areas such as Aerial photography, Inlet and Overwash.
The Sea level study combines topics in areas such as Greenhouse effect, Climate change and Wetland.
His research links Storm with Shore.
His Storm research integrates issues from Hydrology and Beach nourishment.
In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Sea level rise, Storm wave, Threatened species and Barrier island is strongly linked to Global warming.
His most cited work include:
- Global Warming and Coastal Erosion (479 citations)
- Reconstruction of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina: A research perspective (410 citations)
- Historical Shoreline Change: Error Analysis and Mapping Accuracy (354 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Oceanography, Shore, Coastal erosion, Sea level and Hydrology.
The various areas that Stephen P. Leatherman examines in his Oceanography study include Coastal plain and Longshore drift.
His research on Shore also deals with topics like
- Physical geography which intersects with area such as Aerial photography,
- Bay which connect with Marsh.
His Coastal erosion research incorporates elements of Storm, Beach nourishment, Plage and Accretion.
In his research, Swash and Sedimentary rock is intimately related to Sediment, which falls under the overarching field of Hydrology.
His Sea level rise study which covers Global warming that intersects with Climatology and Threatened species.
He most often published in these fields:
- Oceanography (38.84%)
- Shore (34.71%)
- Coastal erosion (23.97%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2020)?
- Rip current (10.74%)
- Oceanography (38.84%)
- Shore (34.71%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Rip current, Oceanography, Shore, Beach safety and Hazard are his primary areas of study.
The study of Oceanography is intertwined with the study of Erosion in a number of ways.
His studies deal with areas such as Scale and Homo sapiens as well as Shore.
His Beach safety research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cartography, Submarine pipeline, Recreation and Internet privacy.
His Hazard research includes elements of Coastal flood, Coastal erosion and Coastal hazards.
His Sea level research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Range, Sea level rise, Greenhouse gas and Natural hazard.
Between 2009 and 2020, his most popular works were:
- Barrier Island Population along the U.S. Atlantic and Gulf Coasts (33 citations)
- Rip Currents and Beach Safety Education (25 citations)
- Airborne Laser Topographic Mapping: Applications to Hurricane Storm Surge Hazards (20 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Climate change
- Erosion
- Agriculture
Stephen P. Leatherman mostly deals with Rip current, Erosion, Beach safety, Shore and Environmental protection.
His Erosion study introduces a deeper knowledge of Hydrology.
His research in Beach safety intersects with topics in Submarine pipeline, Archaeology and Surf zone.
Stephen P. Leatherman combines topics linked to Physical oceanography with his work on Shore.
His Environmental protection research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Economic impact analysis, Litter and Tourism.
His Hazard study incorporates themes from Coastal flood, Coastal erosion and Flood insurance, National Flood Insurance Program.
