Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Climatology
  • Oceanography

Tim Cowan focuses on Climatology, Climate change, La Niña, Forcing and Sea surface temperature. His work deals with themes such as Oceanography and Atmospheric sciences, which intersect with Climatology. Tim Cowan works mostly in the field of Climate change, limiting it down to topics relating to El Niño Southern Oscillation and, in certain cases, Natural disaster, as a part of the same area of interest.

Tim Cowan interconnects Monsoon and Holocene in the investigation of issues within Sea surface temperature. His Indian Ocean Dipole study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Global warming and Global change. In general Climate model study, his work on Coupled model intercomparison project often relates to the realm of South Pacific convergence zone, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

His most cited work include:

  • Teleconnection Pathways of ENSO and the IOD and the Mechanisms for Impacts on Australian Rainfall (246 citations)
  • The response of the Southern Annular Mode, the East Australian Current, and the southern mid‐latitude ocean circulation to global warming (225 citations)
  • Evidence of impacts from rising temperature on inflows to the Murray‐Darling Basin (176 citations)

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

Tim Cowan mostly deals with Climatology, Climate change, Climate model, Sea surface temperature and Forcing. The study incorporates disciplines such as Global warming, Atmospheric sciences and Coupled model intercomparison project in addition to Climatology. His studies in Climate change integrate themes in fields like Weather and climate and Sea level.

His study in Climate model is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Thermocline, Indian ocean, Ocean current and Thermohaline circulation. His Sea surface temperature research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Atmospheric circulation, La Niña, Precipitation and Surface runoff. His Forcing study incorporates themes from East Asian Monsoon, Anomaly and Greenhouse gas.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (117.95%)
  • Climate change (55.56%)
  • Climate model (57.26%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Climatology (117.95%)
  • Climate model (57.26%)
  • Forcing (41.03%)

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

Climatology, Climate model, Forcing, Dust bowl and Climate change are his primary areas of study. His work on El Niño Southern Oscillation as part of his general Climatology study is frequently connected to Northern australia, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His studies deal with areas such as Greenhouse warming, Internal variability and Coupled model intercomparison project as well as El Niño Southern Oscillation.

His work investigates the relationship between Climate model and topics such as Greenhouse gas that intersect with problems in Sensible heat. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Sea surface temperature, Atmospheric circulation and Atmospheric model. His work carried out in the field of Sea surface temperature brings together such families of science as Weather and climate, Proxy, Thermohaline circulation, North Atlantic oscillation and Monsoon.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Insights from CMIP6 for Australia's future climate (26 citations)
  • Insights from CMIP6 for Australia's future climate (26 citations)
  • Causes of climate change over the historical record (20 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Climatology
  • Oceanography

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Climatology, Climate model, Climate change, Rapid intensification and Term. Tim Cowan specializes in Climatology, namely Forcing. His Forcing research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Global warming and Sensible heat.

His Climate model research includes elements of Teleconnection, Sea level and Greenhouse gas. His Future climate study, which is part of a larger body of work in Climate change, is frequently linked to Range, bridging the gap between disciplines. He combines subjects such as Atmospheric model, Weather and climate, Atmospheric circulation and Precipitation with his study of Sea surface temperature.
