Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Remote sensing

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Environmental science, Remote sensing, Phenology, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index and Ecosystem. Deciduous, Evergreen, Spatial ecology, Terrestrial ecosystem and Canopy architecture are fields of study that intersect with his Environmental science research. His Deciduous course of study focuses on Primary production and Forest ecology.

His Remote sensing study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Boreal, Enhanced vegetation index and Hemispherical photography, Canopy, Leaf area index. His work carried out in the field of Phenology brings together such families of science as Climate change and Growing season. Alemu Gonsamo interconnects Meteorology, Precipitation and Moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer in the investigation of issues within Normalized Difference Vegetation Index.

His most cited work include:

  • Satellite chlorophyll fluorescence measurements reveal large‐scale decoupling of photosynthesis and greenness dynamics in boreal evergreen forests (126 citations)
  • Interannual variability of net ecosystem productivity in forests is explained by carbon flux phenology in autumn (96 citations)
  • Land surface phenology from optical satellite measurement and CO2 eddy covariance technique (81 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Environmental science, Remote sensing, Phenology, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index and Leaf area index. His Environmental science research overlaps with other disciplines such as Ecosystem, Climate change, Growing season, Vegetation and Terrestrial ecosystem. Alemu Gonsamo has included themes like Enhanced vegetation index, Hemispherical photography, Canopy, Meteorology and Moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer in his Remote sensing study.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Northern Hemisphere and Deciduous in addition to Phenology. His Normalized Difference Vegetation Index research incorporates themes from Algorithm, Inversion and Thematic Mapper. His Leaf area index research includes elements of Land cover and Satellite imagery.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental science (84.15%)
  • Remote sensing (50.00%)
  • Phenology (35.37%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2020)?

  • Environmental science (84.15%)
  • Climate change (31.71%)
  • Leaf area index (30.49%)

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

Alemu Gonsamo mainly investigates Environmental science, Climate change, Leaf area index, Terrestrial ecosystem and Phenology. The Climate change study combines topics in areas such as Northern Hemisphere, Physical geography, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index and Horticulture. His research in Normalized Difference Vegetation Index tackles topics such as Growing season which are related to areas like Energy budget.

His study looks at the intersection of Leaf area index and topics like Canopy with Evapotranspiration, Deciduous and Transpiration. Alemu Gonsamo works mostly in the field of Phenology, limiting it down to topics relating to Biome and, in certain cases, Land cover and Snow, as a part of the same area of interest. His Ecosystem research incorporates elements of Spatial heterogeneity and Vegetation.

Between 2017 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Contrasting responses of autumn-leaf senescence to daytime and night-time warming (50 citations)
  • Peak season plant activity shift towards spring is reflected by increasing carbon uptake by extratropical ecosystems. (33 citations)
  • Snow cover phenology affects alpine vegetation growth dynamics on the Tibetan Plateau: Satellite observed evidence, impacts of different biomes, and climate drivers (31 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Climate change

Climate change, Environmental science, Northern Hemisphere, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index and Phenology are his primary areas of study. His work deals with themes such as Precipitation, Energy budget and Evergreen, which intersect with Climate change. His Precipitation research includes themes of Land cover, Snow, Physical geography, Vegetation and Biome.

His Energy budget study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Albedo, Carbon cycle, Terrestrial ecosystem and Growing season. The concepts of his Evergreen study are interwoven with issues in Primary production, Canopy, Leaf area index, Deciduous and Evapotranspiration. His study in Ecology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Daytime and Drought stress.
