Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Statistics
  • Hydrology

Thian Yew Gan mainly investigates Climatology, Precipitation, Surface runoff, Hydrology and Climate change. The concepts of his Climatology study are interwoven with issues in Streamflow and Representative Concentration Pathways. His Precipitation study combines topics in areas such as Greater horn and Scale.

His work deals with themes such as Drainage basin, Flood myth and Land-use planning, which intersect with Surface runoff. His work carried out in the field of Hydrology brings together such families of science as Calibration and Climate effects. He combines subjects such as Runoff curve number, Flooding and Anomaly with his study of Climate change.

His most cited work include:

  • Hydrologic sensitivities of the Sacramento‐San Joaquin River Basin, California, to global warming (336 citations)
  • A framework for broad‐scale classification of hydrologic response units on the Boreal Plain: is topography the last thing to consider? (243 citations)
  • Hydroclimatic trends and possible climatic warming in the Canadian Prairies (233 citations)

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

His main research concerns Climatology, Precipitation, Climate change, Hydrology and Streamflow. His Climatology research incorporates themes from Global warming and Meteorology. The Precipitation study combines topics in areas such as Storm, Climate model, Evapotranspiration and Spatial variability.

His Climate change study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Physical geography and Water resources. His Hydrology and Drainage basin, Surface runoff, Hydrology, Snowmelt and Watershed investigations all form part of his Hydrology research activities. His Drainage basin research integrates issues from Snow and Hydrological modelling.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (56.63%)
  • Precipitation (34.18%)
  • Climate change (26.02%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Climatology (56.63%)
  • Precipitation (34.18%)
  • Global warming (11.73%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Climatology, Precipitation, Global warming, Climate change and Evapotranspiration. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Downscaling and Scale. His Precipitation research includes elements of Atmospheric circulation, Effects of global warming and El Niño Southern Oscillation.

His studies in Global warming integrate themes in fields like Atmospheric moisture, Middle latitudes, Trend analysis and Water resources. His Climate change research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Hydrology, Streamflow and Atmospheric sciences. Thian Yew Gan works in the field of Hydrology, namely Surface runoff.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Elevated increases in human-perceived temperature under climate warming (49 citations)
  • Urbanization and climate change implications in flood risk management: Developing an efficient decision support system for flood susceptibility mapping. (41 citations)
  • Multi-criteria approach to develop flood susceptibility maps in arid regions of Middle East (39 citations)

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

  • Statistics
  • Climate change
  • Hydrology

His primary scientific interests are in Climatology, Precipitation, Climate change, Global warming and Physical geography. The study incorporates disciplines such as Storm, Evapotranspiration and Arctic in addition to Climatology. Thian Yew Gan has researched Precipitation in several fields, including Westerlies, Moisture, STREAMS and Spatial variability.

Thian Yew Gan has included themes like Runoff curve number, Flooding, Anomaly and Land-use planning in his Climate change study. His research investigates the link between Global warming and topics such as Middle latitudes that cross with problems in Biome, Marine ecosystem, Apparent temperature and Wind speed. The various areas that Thian Yew Gan examines in his Physical geography study include Deforestation, Climate model, Land use, land-use change and forestry and Ecosystem services.
