What is she best known for?
The fields of study she is best known for:
- Ecology
- Ecosystem
- Habitat
Alison J. Hester focuses on Ecology, Herbivore, Vegetation, Ecosystem and Plant community.
Ecology is a component of her Biodiversity, Woodland, Trampling, Grassland and Homogenization studies.
Her work carried out in the field of Herbivore brings together such families of science as Calluna and Grazing.
Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Arctic vegetation, Range, Betula pubescens and Ecotone.
Her work in Vegetation covers topics such as Ecological succession which are related to areas like Soil chemistry, Shrubland and Soil water.
The concepts of her Plant community study are interwoven with issues in Foraging and Moorland.
Her most cited work include:
- REVIEW: The management of wild large herbivores to meet economic, conservation and environmental objectives (338 citations)
- A collaboratively-derived science-policy research agenda (183 citations)
- Interspecific defoliation responses of trees depend on sites of winter nitrogen storage (148 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Alison J. Hester mostly deals with Ecology, Herbivore, Grazing, Vegetation and Calluna.
Her Biodiversity, Ecosystem, Plant community, Habitat and Moorland study are her primary interests in Ecology.
Her Herbivore research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Betula pubescens, Foraging, Competition, Ecotone and Taiga.
In her research, Canopy and Fraxinus is intimately related to Agronomy, which falls under the overarching field of Betula pubescens.
Her Grazing course of study focuses on Agroforestry and Forage.
Her research on Vegetation also deals with topics like
- Common spatial pattern which intersects with area such as Shrub,
- Ecological succession that intertwine with fields like Soil chemistry.
She most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (56.82%)
- Herbivore (36.36%)
- Grazing (25.00%)
What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?
- Ecology (56.82%)
- Biodiversity (14.77%)
- Ecosystem services (6.82%)
In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:
Her primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Biodiversity, Ecosystem services, Forb and Species richness.
Her work in the fields of Ecology, such as Vegetation, Tree species and Soil properties, overlaps with other areas such as Discourse analysis and Environmental governance.
Alison J. Hester is studying Ecotone, which is a component of Vegetation.
Her research integrates issues of Generalist and specialist species, Habitat, Extinction debt and Salix herbacea in her study of Forb.
The various areas that Alison J. Hester examines in her Extinction debt study include Dominance, Plant community, Grassland and Species diversity.
Alison J. Hester frequently studies issues relating to Moorland and Species richness.
Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:
- Forty years of change in Scottish grassland vegetation: Increased richness, decreased diversity and increased dominance (24 citations)
- Defining and delivering resilient ecological networks: nature conservation in England (23 citations)
- Climate, pollution and grazing drive long-term change in moorland habitats (21 citations)
In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Ecosystem
- Habitat
Alison J. Hester mainly investigates Forb, Species richness, Biodiversity, Ecology and Spatial network.
Her study on Forb is covered under Vegetation.
Her studies deal with areas such as Habitat, Grassland, Species diversity, Dominance and Extinction debt as well as Species richness.
Her Spatial network research covers fields of interest such as Adaptive management, Ecological network, Protected area, Network theory and Environmental planning.
Adaptive management and Context are two areas of study in which Alison J. Hester engages in interdisciplinary work.
