Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Meteorology
  • Climate change

Tom P. Rippeth focuses on Turbulence, Dissipation, Oceanography, Mechanics and Turbulence kinetic energy. Particularly relevant to Turbulence modeling is his body of work in Turbulence. His study on Dissipation is intertwined with other disciplines of science such as Stratification, Water column and Buoyancy.

As a part of the same scientific family, Tom P. Rippeth mostly works in the field of Stratification, focusing on Atmospheric sciences and, on occasion, Climatology. His Arctic geoengineering and Halocline study in the realm of Oceanography connects with subjects such as Nitrate, Phytoplankton and Environmental science. His research integrates issues of Acoustic Doppler current profiler and Meteorology in his study of Mechanics.

His most cited work include:

  • The Vertical Structure of Turbulent Dissipation in Shelf Seas (194 citations)
  • Comparing the performance of the Mellor‐Yamada and the κ‐ε two‐equation turbulence models (153 citations)
  • Phytoplankton distribution and survival in the thermocline (151 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Oceanography, Turbulence, Stratification, Environmental science and Atmospheric sciences. His study on Thermocline, Internal tide, Continental shelf and Fjord is often connected to Nitrate as part of broader study in Oceanography. In the field of Turbulence, his study on Turbulence kinetic energy and Turbulence modeling overlaps with subjects such as Dissipation and Mixing.

Within one scientific family, Tom P. Rippeth focuses on topics pertaining to Acoustic Doppler current profiler under Turbulence kinetic energy, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Reynolds stress. His Stratification research incorporates themes from Climatology, Convection, Water column and Buoyancy. His Atmospheric sciences research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Arctic and Latitude.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (48.89%)
  • Turbulence (25.56%)
  • Stratification (25.56%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Oceanography (48.89%)
  • Arctic (8.89%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (22.22%)

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

Tom P. Rippeth spends much of his time researching Oceanography, Arctic, Atmospheric sciences, Sea ice and Environmental science. His Arctic research incorporates elements of Halocline and Climate change. His Atmospheric sciences study incorporates themes from Turbulence, Atmosphere, Instability and Buoyancy.

The various areas that Tom P. Rippeth examines in his Turbulence study include Buoy, Acoustic Doppler current profiler, Seabed and Latitude. His work in Sea ice covers topics such as Internal wave which are related to areas like Isopycnal, Water column, Baroclinity and Slack water. Tom P. Rippeth combines subjects such as Stratification and Surface boundary layer, Boundary layer with his study of Thermocline.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Tide-mediated warming of Arctic halocline by Atlantic heat fluxes over rough topography (78 citations)
  • Ocean nutrient pathways associated with the passage of a storm (28 citations)
  • Wind-driven mixing at intermediate depths in an ice-free Arctic Ocean (27 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Classical mechanics
  • Climate change

Tom P. Rippeth focuses on Oceanography, Arctic, Sea ice, Turbulence and Arctic ice pack. His work in the fields of Oceanography, such as Arctic geoengineering and Arctic sea ice decline, overlaps with other areas such as Nitrate, Surface layer and Photic zone. Ocean heat content, Arctic dipole anomaly, Thermohaline circulation and Vertical mixing is closely connected to Halocline in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Arctic.

His study with Sea ice involves better knowledge in Climatology. His Climatology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Ice sheet and Tidal Model. His Turbulence research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Buoy, Atmospheric sciences and Latitude.
