Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

An De Schrijver mostly deals with Ecology, Throughfall, Soil pH, Terrestrial ecosystem and Fagus sylvatica. When carried out as part of a general Ecology research project, his work on Vegetation, Forb and Plant community is frequently linked to work in Specific leaf area, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His Throughfall research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Hydrology and Deciduous.

His Soil pH study incorporates themes from Forest floor, Nutrient cycle, Secondary succession and Agronomy. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Alder and Alnus glutinosa. His study in Fagus sylvatica is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Canopy and Interception.

His most cited work include:

  • Latitudinal gradients as natural laboratories to infer species' responses to temperature (217 citations)
  • Rainfall partitioning into throughfall, stemflow, and interception within a single beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) canopy: influence of foliation, rain event characteristics, and meteorology (168 citations)
  • Influences of evergreen gymnosperm and deciduous angiosperm tree species on the functioning of temperate and boreal forests (163 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Agronomy, Throughfall, Forestry and Plant litter. His research in Plant community, Ecosystem, Vegetation, Biomass and Deciduous are components of Ecology. His studies deal with areas such as Nutrient, Soil water, Topsoil and Restoration ecology as well as Agronomy.

His Throughfall research includes themes of Hydrology, Beech, Fagus sylvatica and Deposition. His Forestry research integrates issues from Forest ecology, Ecological succession and Temperate climate. An De Schrijver interconnects Soil acidification, Decomposition, Biogeochemical cycle, Species diversity and Forest floor in the investigation of issues within Plant litter.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (46.03%)
  • Agronomy (41.27%)
  • Throughfall (17.46%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Agronomy (41.27%)
  • Ecology (46.03%)
  • Plant community (17.46%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Agronomy, Ecology, Plant community, Restoration ecology and Vegetation. His Nardus, Litter and Germination study, which is part of a larger body of work in Agronomy, is frequently linked to Phosphorus, bridging the gap between disciplines. The Litter study combines topics in areas such as Forest floor, Fagus sylvatica, Lumbricidae and Soil acidification.

His research ties Botany and Ecology together. His Plant community course of study focuses on Ecosystem and Land use. An De Schrijver has included themes like Juniper, Juniperus communis and Grazing in his Vegetation study.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Tree Species Identity Shapes Earthworm Communities (29 citations)
  • Beyond plant–soil feedbacks: mechanisms driving plant community shifts due to land-use legacies in post-agricultural forests. (28 citations)
  • Mixing effects on litter decomposition rates in a young tree diversity experiment (20 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

His primary areas of study are Plant litter, Forest floor, Agronomy, Ecology and Abundance. The study incorporates disciplines such as Fagus sylvatica, Picea abies, Lumbricidae, Soil pH and Litter in addition to Forest floor. His Picea abies research incorporates elements of Soil type, Humus, Forest management, Deciduous and High forest.

The various areas that An De Schrijver examines in his Agronomy study include Vegetation, Restoration ecology and Intensive farming. He studies Biodiversity, a branch of Ecology. His Abundance study combines topics in areas such as Old-growth forest, Temperate rainforest, Herbivore, Plant community and Abiotic component.
