Abstract:
Using bibliometric methods and combining the Chinese Science Citation Database (CSCD), this paper analyzes the distributions of the published articles number, major research institutions, the discipline, journal types, and academic influence of the severe convective weather research works. The result shows that the number of articles on the theme of severe convective weather appeared a growing trend since 2000, especially after 2008. At the research competitiveness point and according to distribution of high yield authors, published works from the Institute of Amospheric Physics (CAS) and the Nanjing University of Information Science & Technology were obviously more than others in meteorology and atmospheric sciences. The study of severe convective weather become one of the hot meteorological topics in the past 10 years with increases of extreme weather events.
