Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Meteorology
  • Thermodynamics
  • Climate change

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Meteorology, Planetary boundary layer, Atmospheric model, Mesoscale meteorology and Energy balance. His research integrates issues of Urban area and Boundary layer in his study of Meteorology. His study in Planetary boundary layer is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Atmospheric sciences and Urban climatology.

His Atmospheric model research includes themes of Computational science, Fortran, Computer simulation, Sea breeze and Adiabatic process. His Mesoscale meteorology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Scale and Numerical weather prediction. The Energy balance study combines topics in areas such as Hydrology, Microclimate, Vegetation and Earth's energy budget.

His most cited work include:

  • A PHYSICALLY-BASED SCHEME FOR THE URBAN ENERGY BUDGET IN ATMOSPHERIC MODELS (880 citations)
  • The Meso-NH Atmospheric Simulation System. Part I: adiabatic formulation and control simulations (679 citations)
  • A Global Database of Land Surface Parameters at 1-km Resolution in Meteorological and Climate Models (560 citations)

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

Valéry Masson focuses on Meteorology, Urban heat island, Urban climate, Atmospheric sciences and Planetary boundary layer. The study incorporates disciplines such as Energy balance and Urban climatology in addition to Meteorology. As a part of the same scientific study, Valéry Masson usually deals with the Urban heat island, concentrating on Climatology and frequently concerns with Climate model.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Global warming, Physical geography and Environmental planning. His Atmospheric sciences research incorporates themes from Atmosphere, Aerosol, Snow, Latent heat and Radiative transfer. His work on Convective Boundary Layer as part of general Planetary boundary layer study is frequently linked to Mediterranean sea, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Meteorology (40.58%)
  • Urban heat island (23.91%)
  • Urban climate (22.46%)

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

  • Meteorology (40.58%)
  • Urban climate (22.46%)
  • Atmospheric model (14.49%)

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

Valéry Masson mainly focuses on Meteorology, Urban climate, Atmospheric model, Urban heat island and Weather Research and Forecasting Model. His work deals with themes such as Resolution and Boundary layer, which intersect with Meteorology. The concepts of his Boundary layer study are interwoven with issues in Atmospheric models, Convection, Eddy and Mesoscale meteorology.

His Urban climate study combines topics in areas such as Atmospheric sciences and Environmental planning. Within one scientific family, Valéry Masson focuses on topics pertaining to Scale under Atmospheric model, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Urban canopy and Prescribed burn. His Urban heat island research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Grid, Air quality index and Scale.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Comparison between local climate zones maps derived from administrative datasets and satellite observations (23 citations)
  • Pathway using WUDAPT's Digital Synthetic City tool towards generating urban canopy parameters for multi-scale urban atmospheric modeling (20 citations)
  • Early adaptation to heat waves and future reduction of air-conditioning energy use in Paris (7 citations)

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

  • Meteorology
  • Climate change
  • Thermodynamics

His primary areas of investigation include Urban climate, Climate change, Urbanization, Environmental planning and Atmospheric sciences. His work carried out in the field of Urban climate brings together such families of science as Urban heat island, Thermal comfort, Radiative transfer and Atmosphere. His Urban heat island research includes elements of Grid, Atmospheric model, Air quality index and Scale.

Valéry Masson has researched Urbanization in several fields, including Identification, Urban planning and Ecosystem services. As part of his studies on Environmental planning, Valéry Masson frequently links adjacent subjects like Urban climatology. His Atmospheric sciences study incorporates themes from Heat wave and Air conditioning.
