Paul W. Staten studies large-scale atmospheric circulation and how it is changing with the climate, with a particular focus on the tropics. His work examines phenomena such as the widening of the tropical belt, the Hadley cell (the pattern of rising and sinking air that shapes tropical and subtropical weather), and how natural variability compares with human-driven change. He also develops standardized tools and methods for measuring these atmospheric features.

Publication activity peaked around 2018 and has since settled into a steadier, moderate pace of roughly four papers per year.
