Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Meteorology
  • Optics
  • Thunderstorm

His primary areas of investigation include Meteorology, Thunderstorm, Storm, Mesoscale meteorology and Convection. Meteorology is closely attributed to Radar in his research. His Thunderstorm research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Geophysics, Atmospheric sciences, Lightning, Atmospheric electricity and Altitude.

Thomas C. Marshall focuses mostly in the field of Geophysics, narrowing it down to matters related to Heat lightning and, in some cases, Space charge and Electric potential. He studies Lightning, namely Runaway breakdown. His Mesoscale meteorology research integrates issues from Mesocyclone and Precipitation.

His most cited work include:

  • Electric field magnitudes and lightning initiation in thunderstorms (190 citations)
  • Electrical structure in thunderstorm convective regions 3. Synthesis (163 citations)
  • Effects of charge and electrostatic potential on lightning propagation (145 citations)

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

Thomas C. Marshall mainly investigates Lightning, Meteorology, Thunderstorm, Storm and Environmental science. His work carried out in the field of Lightning brings together such families of science as Astrophysics, Flash, Computational physics and Remote sensing. His Flash study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Pulse and Geodesy.

His work on Atmospheric electricity, Convection, Mesoscale meteorology and Precipitation as part of general Meteorology research is frequently linked to Charge density, bridging the gap between disciplines. The study incorporates disciplines such as Atmospheric sciences, Geophysics and Altitude in addition to Thunderstorm. Thomas C. Marshall conducted interdisciplinary study in his works that combined Storm and Electric potential energy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Lightning (65.12%)
  • Meteorology (57.36%)
  • Thunderstorm (46.51%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Lightning (65.12%)
  • Meteorology (57.36%)
  • Cloud to ground (5.43%)

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

Thomas C. Marshall mainly focuses on Lightning, Meteorology, Cloud to ground, Thunderstorm and Environmental science. Thomas C. Marshall interconnects Seismology, Computational physics, Flash and Geodesy in the investigation of issues within Lightning. His biological study focuses on Storm.

The various areas that Thomas C. Marshall examines in his Storm study include Radar and Altitude. He has included themes like Waveform, Radar reflectivity, Reflectivity and Astrophysics in his Thunderstorm study. His work in Waveform addresses subjects such as Amplitude, which are connected to disciplines such as Pulse, Atomic physics, Terrestrial gamma-ray flash and Gamma ray.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A study of lightning flash initiation prior to the first initial breakdown pulse (20 citations)
  • Initial Electric Field Changes of Lightning Flashes in Two Thunderstorms (15 citations)
  • Initiation locations of lightning flashes relative to radar reflectivity in four small Florida thunderstorms (10 citations)

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

  • Optics
  • Electrical engineering
  • Meteorology

His main research concerns Lightning, Environmental science, Meteorology, Thunderstorm and Cloud to ground. Many of his studies on Lightning apply to Flash as well. His multidisciplinary approach integrates Environmental science and Pulse in his work.

His Storm, Radar reflectivity and Altitude study in the realm of Meteorology connects with subjects such as Mature stage. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Radar and Astrophysics. His work deals with themes such as Upper-atmospheric lightning, Lightning strike, Amplitude, Lightning channel and Waveform, which intersect with Astrophysics.
