Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Meteorology
  • Hydrology
  • Drainage basin

Tobias Jonas mainly focuses on Snow, Atmospheric sciences, Climatology, Hydrology and Physical geography. His work on Snow hydrology as part of general Snow research is often related to Spatial variability, thus linking different fields of science. In his study, Bulk density is inextricably linked to Water equivalent, which falls within the broad field of Atmospheric sciences.

His Climatology research includes elements of Climate model and Snow cover. His study in the fields of Surface water under the domain of Hydrology overlaps with other disciplines such as Chemistry, Flux and Eddy covariance. In his research, Northern Hemisphere, Snowpack and Hydrometeorology is intimately related to Atmospheric temperature, which falls under the overarching field of Physical geography.

His most cited work include:

  • Evaluation of forest snow processes models (SnowMIP2) (244 citations)
  • Estimating Snow Water Equivalent Using Snow Depth Data and Climate Classes (238 citations)
  • Estimating the snow water equivalent from snow depth measurements in the Swiss Alps (213 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Snow, Atmospheric sciences, Snowmelt, Climatology and Snowpack. His Snow research integrates issues from Hydrology, Surface runoff and Remote sensing. His work in Atmospheric sciences addresses subjects such as Shortwave radiation, which are connected to disciplines such as Shortwave and Radiometer.

His research in Snowmelt tackles topics such as Precipitation which are related to areas like Glacier. His study in Climatology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Physical geography, Climate model and Snow cover. The concepts of his Snowpack study are interwoven with issues in Energy balance and Thermal energy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Snow (72.13%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (31.97%)
  • Snowmelt (23.77%)

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

  • Snow (72.13%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (31.97%)
  • Remote sensing (18.03%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Snow, Atmospheric sciences, Remote sensing, Climatology and Tree canopy. He has included themes like Energy balance, Precipitation, Water resources, Lidar and Shortwave in his Snow study. In general Atmospheric sciences, his work in Albedo is often linked to Surface and Scale linking many areas of study.

His Lidar data study in the realm of Remote sensing interacts with subjects such as Resolution and Physics based. His research in Climatology intersects with topics in Channel and Backscatter. He focuses mostly in the field of Snowmelt, narrowing it down to topics relating to Surface water and, in certain cases, Surface runoff.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Snow depth variability in the Northern Hemisphere mountains observed from space. (39 citations)
  • Comparing aerial lidar observations with terrestrial lidar and snow‐probe transects from NASA's 2017 SnowEx campaign (19 citations)
  • Revisiting Snow Cover Variability and Canopy Structure Within Forest Stands: Insights From Airborne Lidar Data (17 citations)

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

  • Meteorology
  • Hydrology
  • Geometry

Tobias Jonas spends much of his time researching Snow, Remote sensing, Lidar, Atmospheric sciences and Physics based. Tobias Jonas has included themes like Shortwave, Energy balance and Lidar data in his Snow study. His Shortwave study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Forest floor, Direct insolation, Outgoing longwave radiation and Shortwave radiation.

His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Snow hydrology and Energy balance. His research on Lidar data frequently links to adjacent areas such as Snow cover. His Spatial variability research incorporates Scale, Northern Hemisphere, Water resources, Surface runoff and Physical geography.
