Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Ecosystem

Andrea Buffagni focuses on Water Framework Directive, Environmental resource management, Water quality, Ecology and Invertebrate. She studied Water Framework Directive and Environmental monitoring that intersect with Cumulative effects and Sampling design. Her Water quality research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Rare species and Nutrient.

Her study on Benthic zone is often connected to Aquatic animal as part of broader study in Ecology. Her Benthic zone research incorporates elements of Riffle, Habitat, STREAMS and Species richness. Her research in Invertebrate intersects with topics in Riparia and Tributary, Main river.

Her most cited work include:

  • The Development of a System to Assess the Ecological Quality of Streams Based on Macroinvertebrates – Design of the Sampling Programme within the AQEM Project (180 citations)
  • The STAR project: context, objectives and approaches (170 citations)
  • A comparative analysis of restoration measures and their effects on hydromorphology and benthic invertebrates in 26 central and southern European rivers (122 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Water Framework Directive, Habitat, Benthic zone and Invertebrate. Andrea Buffagni has included themes like Sampling and Environmental resource management in her Water Framework Directive study. Her work on River management as part of general Environmental resource management study is frequently linked to Directive, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Her work in the fields of River ecosystem overlaps with other areas such as Context. Her Benthic zone research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Water quality, Multidimensional scaling and Abiotic component. As a part of the same scientific family, Andrea Buffagni mostly works in the field of Invertebrate, focusing on STREAMS and, on occasion, Mediterranean Basin and Nutrient.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (56.86%)
  • Water Framework Directive (45.10%)
  • Habitat (39.22%)

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

  • Habitat (39.22%)
  • Benthic zone (29.41%)
  • Ecology (56.86%)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Habitat, Benthic zone, Ecology, Drainage basin and Water Framework Directive. In her study, Alpha diversity, Substrate, Beta diversity and Community structure is inextricably linked to Multidimensional scaling, which falls within the broad field of Habitat. Invertebrate, Abundance, Species richness, Riffle and Lake ecosystem are among the areas of Ecology where the researcher is concentrating her efforts.

Andrea Buffagni interconnects Channel, Principal component analysis, Regression and Spearman's rank correlation coefficient in the investigation of issues within Invertebrate. Her Drainage basin research integrates issues from Throughfall, Agricultural pollution, Dissolved organic carbon and Nitrate. Her Water Framework Directive study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Water resource management, Abiotic component, STREAMS, Flood myth and Levee.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Dynamic of nitrogen and dissolved organic carbon in an alpine forested catchment: atmospheric deposition and soil solution trends (4 citations)
  • Groundwater-dependent ecosystems as transfer vectors of nitrogen from the aquifer to surface waters in agricultural basins: The fontanili of the Po Plain (Italy) (3 citations)
  • The ratio of lentic to lotic habitat features strongly affects macroinvertebrate metrics used in southern Europe for ecological status classification (3 citations)
