Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Meteorology
  • Climatology

His primary scientific interests are in Climatology, Oceanography, Ocean current, Sea surface temperature and Meteorology. Tong Lee has included themes like Global warming, Climate change and Tropical pacific in his Climatology study. Many of his research projects under Oceanography are closely connected to High resolution with High resolution, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

He interconnects Ekman transport, Ocean general circulation model, Heat transfer, Southern Hemisphere and Current in the investigation of issues within Ocean current. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Atmosphere, Anomaly and Wave train. His work in Ocean heat content addresses issues such as Sea ice thickness, which are connected to fields such as Salinity.

His most cited work include:

  • Increasing intensity of El Niño in the central‐equatorial Pacific (514 citations)
  • Understanding ENSO Diversity (488 citations)
  • El Niño and its relationship to changing background conditions in the tropical Pacific Ocean (287 citations)

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

Tong Lee spends much of his time researching Climatology, Oceanography, Salinity, Ocean current and Sea surface temperature. His study in Climatology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Meteorology and Data assimilation. His Oceanography study frequently links to related topics such as Throughflow.

His study focuses on the intersection of Salinity and fields such as Satellite with connections in the field of Remote sensing. His research in Ocean current intersects with topics in Plume and Ocean general circulation model. He works mostly in the field of Mixed layer, limiting it down to concerns involving Advection and, occasionally, Thermocline and Forcing.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (59.39%)
  • Oceanography (35.53%)
  • Salinity (21.83%)

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

  • Oceanography (35.53%)
  • Water cycle (8.12%)
  • Mesoscale meteorology (7.11%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Oceanography, Water cycle, Mesoscale meteorology, Sea surface salinity and Salinity. His Water cycle research incorporates themes from Throughflow, Argo, Precipitation, Ocean current and Surface runoff. His Mesoscale meteorology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Atmospheric sciences, Boundary current and Latitude.

His Salinity research includes themes of Earth observation, Satellite, Sea ice thickness, Water content and Remote sensing. His Atmospheric forcing research is classified as research in Climatology. His study in Climatology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Deep sea and Weather forecasting.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Satellite salinity observing system: Recent discoveries and the way forward (35 citations)
  • The tropical Atlantic observing system (29 citations)
  • Sea surface salinity estimates from spaceborne L-band radiometers: An overview of the first decade of observation (2010–2019) (21 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Meteorology
  • Climate change

His scientific interests lie mostly in Oceanography, Remote sensing, Remote sensing, Satellite and Climate change. His Oceanography study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Throughflow and Precipitation. His Satellite study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Salinity.

His studies deal with areas such as Argo, Climatology and Boundary current as well as Salinity. His research investigates the connection between Climate change and topics such as Ocean observations that intersect with problems in Global warming, Climate model, Thermal energy storage and Thermohaline circulation. His research investigates the connection with Global warming and areas like Water cycle which intersect with concerns in Ocean current, Surface runoff, Biogeochemistry and Monsoon.
