Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Hydrology
  • Erosion

Thomas Dunne mainly focuses on Hydrology, Sediment, Floodplain, Surface runoff and Drainage basin. His Hydrology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Hydraulic conductivity and Sediment transport. Thomas Dunne combines subjects such as Erosion and Amazon rainforest with his study of Sediment.

His study looks at the relationship between Floodplain and fields such as Overbank, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. When carried out as part of a general Surface runoff research project, his work on Hydrograph is frequently linked to work in Macropore, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His work carried out in the field of Drainage basin brings together such families of science as Foreland basin, Ecology, Fluvial, River ecosystem and Riparian zone.

His most cited work include:

  • Water in environmental planning (1667 citations)
  • Partial Area Contributions to Storm Runoff in a Small New England Watershed (867 citations)
  • The Network Dynamics Hypothesis: How Channel Networks Structure Riverine Habitats (647 citations)

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

Thomas Dunne mainly investigates Hydrology, Sediment, Geomorphology, Floodplain and Surface runoff. Hydrology is closely attributed to Sediment transport in his research. His research in Sediment intersects with topics in Amazon basin and Levee.

His Geomorphology study combines topics in areas such as Flow, Subsurface flow and Hydrology. Thomas Dunne has included themes like Routing, Fluvial, Amazon rainforest, Discharge and Bank erosion in his Floodplain study. His Surface runoff study incorporates themes from Soil water, Streamflow and Groundwater.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hydrology (64.97%)
  • Sediment (29.30%)
  • Geomorphology (21.02%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Hydrology (64.97%)
  • Sediment (29.30%)
  • Geomorphology (21.02%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Hydrology, Sediment, Geomorphology, Sinuosity and Dead sea. The Hydrology study combines topics in areas such as Sediment transport and Debris flow. His Sediment study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Floodplain, Flood myth, Flow and Spring.

The various areas that Thomas Dunne examines in his Floodplain study include Ecosystem, Environmental impact assessment, Greenhouse gas and Siltation. He interconnects Spatial ecology, Hydraulic conductivity, Topographic gradient and Subsurface flow in the investigation of issues within Geomorphology. His Sinuosity study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Channel and Amazon basin.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Damming the rivers of the Amazon basin (267 citations)
  • The potential impact of new Andean dams on Amazon fluvial ecosystems. (80 citations)
  • Sediment Budgets as an Organizing Framework in Fluvial Geomorphology (64 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Erosion
  • Hydrology

Thomas Dunne focuses on Hydrology, Sediment, Floodplain, Sinuosity and Geomorphology. His studies in Hydrology integrate themes in fields like Splash and Sediment transport. His studies deal with areas such as Fluvial, Erosion control and Sediment yield as well as Sediment transport.

His research in Sediment is mostly concerned with Sedimentary budget. His study in Floodplain is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Amazon rainforest, Environmental impact assessment, Environmental degradation, Sustainability and Vulnerability index. His Sinuosity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Channel, Alluvial river, Flow routing and Deposition.
