Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Statistics
  • Climate change
  • Meteorology

His primary areas of study are Climatology, Meteorology, Climate model, Climate change and Initialization. His Climatology research integrates issues from Magnitude, Predictability and Greenhouse gas. His work carried out in the field of Greenhouse gas brings together such families of science as Copenhagen Accord, Atmosphere, Representative Concentration Pathways, Carbon sequestration and Forcing.

In the field of Meteorology, his study on Mixed layer overlaps with subjects such as Intrusion. His research integrates issues of El Niño Southern Oscillation, Wave speed, Advection, Earth system science and Biogeochemistry in his study of Climate model. Many of his research projects under Climate change are closely connected to Ocean gyre with Ocean gyre, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

His most cited work include:

  • The North American multimodel ensemble: Phase-1 seasonal-to-interannual prediction; phase-2 toward developing intraseasonal prediction (509 citations)
  • Carbon emission limits required to satisfy future representative concentration pathways of greenhouse gases (509 citations)
  • Contribution of land surface initialization to subseasonal forecast skill: first results from a multi-model experiment. (265 citations)

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

William J. Merryfield mostly deals with Climatology, Meteorology, Climate model, Atmospheric sciences and Climate change. His Climatology research includes themes of Predictability and Precipitation. William J. Merryfield interconnects Thermocline and Geostrophic wind in the investigation of issues within Meteorology.

His Climate model research includes elements of Atmosphere, Sea surface temperature, Magnitude, El Niño Southern Oscillation and Ocean current. As a part of the same scientific family, William J. Merryfield mostly works in the field of Atmospheric sciences, focusing on Turbulence and, on occasion, Buoyancy, Inviscid flow and Classical mechanics. His studies deal with areas such as Wind stress, Weather and climate and Downwelling, Upwelling as well as Climate change.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (65.00%)
  • Meteorology (22.00%)
  • Climate model (21.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Climatology (65.00%)
  • Climate model (21.00%)
  • Predictability (12.00%)

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

Climatology, Climate model, Predictability, Atmospheric sciences and Prediction system are his primary areas of study. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both General Circulation Model and Climate change. His study in Climate change is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both North Atlantic oscillation, Errors-in-variables models and Mode.

His work deals with themes such as Hindcast, Northern Hemisphere and Coupling, which intersect with Climate model. His Predictability research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sea ice, Correlation, Earth system science and Mean radiant temperature. As a part of the same scientific study, William J. Merryfield usually deals with the Atmospheric sciences, concentrating on Snow and frequently concerns with Statistical model, Teleconnection and Pacific–North American teleconnection pattern.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Robust skill of decadal climate predictions (38 citations)
  • CAUSES: On the Role of Surface Energy Budget Errors to the Warm Surface Air Temperature Error Over the Central United States (35 citations)
  • CAUSES: Attribution of Surface Radiation Biases in NWP and Climate Models near the U.S. Southern Great Plains (34 citations)

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

  • Statistics
  • Climate change
  • Climatology

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Climatology, Climate model, Atmospheric circulation, Precipitation and Attribution. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Tropical rainfall and Atmospheric pressure. His Atmospheric circulation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as North Atlantic oscillation, Errors-in-variables models, Climate change and Mode.

He has researched Precipitation in several fields, including Solar variation, Forecast skill, Lead and Sea level.
