Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Global warming
  • Meteorology

Climatology, Climate model, Greenhouse gas, Climate change and Atmospheric sciences are his primary areas of study. His Climatology research integrates issues from Global warming, Meteorology and Abrupt climate change. His study in Climate model is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Thermohaline circulation and Atmospheric temperature.

His work deals with themes such as Atmosphere, Evaporation and Forcing, which intersect with Greenhouse gas. His Greenhouse effect study, which is part of a larger body of work in Climate change, is frequently linked to Political science and Population, bridging the gap between disciplines. Warren M. Washington studies Atmospheric sciences, namely Troposphere.

His most cited work include:

  • Atmospheric brown clouds: impacts on South Asian climate and hydrological cycle. (1001 citations)
  • The Importance of Land-Cover Change in Simulating Future Climates (762 citations)
  • Intercomparison and interpretation of climate feedback processes in 19 atmospheric general circulation models (732 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Climatology, Climate model, Atmospheric sciences, Climate change and Forcing. Warren M. Washington has researched Climatology in several fields, including Global warming, Greenhouse gas and Precipitation. As part of the same scientific family, Warren M. Washington usually focuses on Climate model, concentrating on Abrupt climate change and intersecting with Climate state.

His research in Atmospheric sciences intersects with topics in Cloud feedback, Atmosphere and Monsoon. In his research on the topic of Climate change, Climate system and General Circulation Model is strongly related with Meteorology. His Forcing research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Radiative forcing and Cloud forcing.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (72.22%)
  • Climate model (36.81%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (36.81%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2016)?

  • Climatology (72.22%)
  • Climate model (36.81%)
  • Climate change (30.56%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Climatology, Climate model, Climate change, Atmospheric sciences and Global warming. Warren M. Washington is studying Forcing, which is a component of Climatology. The various areas that he examines in his Climate model study include Earth system science, Volcanism, Greenhouse gas and Atmospheric temperature.

His work deals with themes such as Glacial period and Environmental resource management, which intersect with Climate change. His Atmospheric sciences research includes elements of Atmosphere and Heat wave. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Mixed layer and Hurricane intensity.

Between 2004 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • Atmospheric brown clouds: impacts on South Asian climate and hydrological cycle. (1001 citations)
  • The Importance of Land-Cover Change in Simulating Future Climates (762 citations)
  • How much more global warming and sea level rise (522 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Global warming
  • Meteorology

His primary areas of study are Climatology, Climate model, Atmospheric sciences, Greenhouse gas and Climate change. His Climatology research integrates issues from Meteorology and Abrupt climate change. His studies deal with areas such as Volcano, Climate variation and Future climate as well as Climate model.

The Atmospheric sciences study combines topics in areas such as Community Climate System Model and Climate sensitivity. His Greenhouse gas research incorporates elements of Greenhouse effect, Sea surface temperature and Water vapor. Climate change and Monsoon are commonly linked in his work.
