Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Climate change
  • Climatology

Climatology, Oceanography, Sea level, Rossby wave and Thermohaline circulation are his primary areas of study. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Global warming, Current and Tropical pacific. Ice sheet, Monsoon, Sea surface temperature, Mixed layer and Ekman transport are subfields of Oceanography in which his conducts study.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Annual cycle and Empirical orthogonal functions. His study focuses on the intersection of Rossby wave and fields such as Kelvin wave with connections in the field of Wind stress. Weiqing Han has included themes like Climate change and Ocean current in his Thermohaline circulation study.

His most cited work include:

  • Dynamics of the East India Coastal Current: 2. Numerical solutions (194 citations)
  • Patterns of Indian Ocean sea-level change in a warming climate (160 citations)
  • Surface Kuroshio path in the Luzon Strait area derived from satellite remote sensing data (157 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Climatology, Oceanography, Sea surface temperature, Indian ocean and Sea level. His study in Ocean general circulation model extends to Climatology with its themes. In Ocean general circulation model, Weiqing Han works on issues like Rossby wave, which are connected to Current.

The concepts of his Sea surface temperature study are interwoven with issues in Madden–Julian oscillation and Convection. His studies deal with areas such as Thermal and Indian summer monsoon as well as Indian ocean. His work carried out in the field of Mixed layer brings together such families of science as Wind stress, Atmospheric sciences and Upwelling.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (75.51%)
  • Oceanography (49.66%)
  • Sea surface temperature (20.41%)

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

  • Oceanography (49.66%)
  • Indian ocean (19.73%)
  • Climatology (75.51%)

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

Weiqing Han spends much of his time researching Oceanography, Indian ocean, Climatology, Sea level and Sea surface temperature. His study in the field of Salinity and Tropical pacific is also linked to topics like Boreal. His study on Indian ocean also encompasses disciplines like

  • Ocean dynamics which intersects with area such as Mooring and Tropical cyclone,
  • Rossby wave, which have a strong connection to Baroclinity, Ocean general circulation model and Ocean current,
  • Upwelling, which have a strong connection to Global change,
  • Ocean heat content most often made with reference to El Niño Southern Oscillation.

His Climatology research includes elements of Sea level rise, Climate model and Current. His Sea level study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Current and Forcing. His Sea surface temperature research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in East Asian Monsoon and Internal variability.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Towards comprehensive observing and modeling systems for monitoring and predicting regional to coastal sea level (21 citations)
  • Indian Ocean Warming Trend Reduces Pacific Warming Response to Anthropogenic Greenhouse Gases: An Interbasin Thermostat Mechanism (19 citations)
  • Impacts of Basin-Scale Climate Modes on Coastal Sea Level: a Review (16 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Climate change
  • Climatology

Weiqing Han mainly investigates Indian ocean, Climatology, Sea level, El Niño Southern Oscillation and Oceanography. Weiqing Han focuses mostly in the field of Indian ocean, narrowing it down to matters related to Ocean dynamics and, in some cases, Sea surface temperature. His research in Climatology is mostly focused on Forcing.

His Sea level research integrates issues from Global warming, Global and Planetary Change, Climate change, Current and Land ice. The study incorporates disciplines such as Ocean heat content, Rossby wave and Upwelling in addition to El Niño Southern Oscillation. His Salinity study combines topics in areas such as Stratification and Bay.
