Andrew J. McElrone

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Botany
• Ecology
• Optics

His primary scientific interests are in Botany, Xylem, Water transport, Hydraulic conductivity and Horticulture. His Botany study combines topics in areas such as Tomography and Tension. The Xylem study combines topics in areas such as X-ray microtomography, Dehydration, Water stress, Artificial intelligence and Vitis vinifera.

His work carried out in the field of Vitis vinifera brings together such families of science as Orientation, Dorsum and Pattern recognition. His Hydraulic conductivity study incorporates themes from Biophysics and Three dimensional imaging. In general Horticulture study, his work on Pith, Germ tube and Conidium often relates to the realm of Systemic embolism and Phyllosticta minima, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

His most cited work include:

• The Dynamics of Embolism Repair in Xylem: In Vivo Visualizations Using High-Resolution Computed Tomography (274 citations)
• Variation in xylem structure and function in stems and roots of trees to 20 m depth (194 citations)
• Measurement of vulnerability to water stress‐induced cavitation in grapevine: a comparison of four techniques applied to a long‐vesseled species (172 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Xylem, Botany, Horticulture, Water transport and Hydraulic conductivity. Andrew J. McElrone combines subjects such as Transpiration, Root pressure, Woody plant, Vitis vinifera and Cavitation with his study of Xylem. His research investigates the connection between Botany and topics such as Biophysics that intersect with problems in Chloroplast.

Andrew J. McElrone works mostly in the field of Horticulture, limiting it down to topics relating to Canopy and, in certain cases, Atmospheric sciences. His research integrates issues of Drought stress, Pith, Bark and Seedling in his study of Hydraulic conductivity. His Stomatal conductance research integrates issues from Biomass and Water-use efficiency.

He most often published in these fields:

• Xylem (81.53%)
• Botany (54.14%)
• Horticulture (50.96%)

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

• Xylem (81.53%)
• Horticulture (50.96%)
• Canopy (21.02%)

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

Andrew J. McElrone mainly focuses on Xylem, Horticulture, Canopy, Water transport and Evapotranspiration. The Xylem study which covers Vitis vinifera that intersects with Abiotic stress and Root pressure. Andrew J. McElrone has researched Horticulture in several fields, including Hydraulic conductivity and Riparia.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Biomass, Cavitation, Shoot and Soil saturation in addition to Canopy. His Evapotranspiration research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sensible heat, Eddy covariance and Hydrology. His Stomatal conductance study introduces a deeper knowledge of Botany.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• In vivo pressure gradient heterogeneity increases flow contribution of small diameter vessels in grapevine. (18 citations)
• In vivo pressure gradient heterogeneity increases flow contribution of small diameter vessels in grapevine. (18 citations)
• Functional Status of Xylem Through Time (17 citations)

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

• Botany
• Ecology
• Optics

Andrew J. McElrone mainly investigates Xylem, Canopy, Horticulture, Water transport and Vineyard. His studies in Xylem integrate themes in fields like Flow, Volumetric flow rate and Pressure gradient. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cavitation, Viability staining and Soil saturation.

Many of his research projects under Horticulture are closely connected to Water discharge and Elongation with Water discharge and Elongation, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His work deals with themes such as Riparia, Root pressure, Abiotic stress and Vitis vinifera, which intersect with Rootstock. The various areas that Andrew J. McElrone examines in his Vineyard study include Radiation, Pyranometer and Goodness of fit.
