Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Archaeology

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Agriculture, Archaeology, Crop, Agronomy and Agroforestry. Her study in Agriculture is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Old World and Environmental protection. Her work on Shifting cultivation and Poppy as part of general Archaeology research is often related to Social geography and Settlement, thus linking different fields of science.

Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Land use and Agricultural science. Amy Bogaard interconnects Isotopes of nitrogen, δ15N and Isotopes of carbon in the investigation of issues within Agronomy. Her research in Agroforestry intersects with topics in Animal husbandry and Herding.

Her most cited work include:

  • The plant traits that drive ecosystems: Evidence from three continents (1075 citations)
  • The impact of manuring on nitrogen isotope ratios in cereals: archaeological implications for reconstruction of diet and crop management practices (386 citations)
  • Crop manuring and intensive land management by Europe’s first farmers (261 citations)

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

Amy Bogaard focuses on Agriculture, Archaeology, Crop, Agroforestry and Agronomy. Her study with Agriculture involves better knowledge in Ecology. In the subject of general Archaeology, her work in Herding, Prehistory and Shifting cultivation is often linked to Settlement and Shore, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

Her Agroforestry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Land use, Domestication, Arid, Agroecology and Subsistence agriculture. Her study looks at the intersection of Agronomy and topics like δ13C with Isotope analysis. Her research in Weed focuses on subjects like Sowing, which are connected to Intensive farming.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Agriculture (46.32%)
  • Archaeology (25.00%)
  • Crop (19.85%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Agriculture (46.32%)
  • Agroforestry (19.12%)
  • Archaeology (25.00%)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Agriculture, Agroforestry, Archaeology, Bronze Age and Prehistory. Her studies deal with areas such as Period, Economic history, Iron Age and Crop as well as Agriculture. Her Crop study contributes to a more complete understanding of Agronomy.

Her Agroforestry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Mediterranean climate, Subsistence economy, Agroecology and Paleoethnobotany. Her Dendrochronology, Excavation and Herding study in the realm of Archaeology interacts with subjects such as Cultural variation. Her δ15N research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Isotope analysis, Mainland, Ecology and Land management.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • The farming-inequality nexus: new insights from ancient Western Eurasia (17 citations)
  • The Preservation and Interpretation of δ34S Values in Charred Archaeobotanical Remains (11 citations)
  • Comparing ancient inequalities: the challenges of comparability, bias and precision (9 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Archaeology

Agriculture, Herding, Bronze Age, Agricultural revolution and Economic history are her primary areas of study. Her Agriculture research includes themes of Period, Iron Age and Economic geography. Her Herding study introduces a deeper knowledge of Archaeology.

Her Archaeology study combines topics in areas such as Range, Fodder and Isotope study. Her studies deal with areas such as δ13C, Agroecology and Hittite language as well as Bronze Age. Her studies in δ13C integrate themes in fields like Agronomy, Manure, Crop and Vegetation.
