Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Statistics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Eddy covariance, Ecosystem, Climatology, Carbon cycle and Ecosystem respiration. The Eddy covariance study combines topics in areas such as Primary production, Stomatal conductance, Hydrology, Evapotranspiration and Carbon sink. Ankur R. Desai combines subjects such as Biometeorology and Covariance with his study of Hydrology.

His Evapotranspiration study combines topics in areas such as Moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer, Atmospheric sciences, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index and Transpiration. His Ecosystem study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Climate change and Biosphere. Soil water is closely connected to Water content in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Climatology.

His most cited work include:

  • Ecosystem carbon dioxide fluxes after disturbance in forests of North America (622 citations)
  • Comprehensive comparison of gap-filling techniques for eddy covariance net carbon fluxes (601 citations)
  • Evaluation of remote sensing based terrestrial productivity from MODIS using regional tower eddy flux network observations (516 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Atmospheric sciences, Eddy covariance, Ecosystem, Carbon cycle and Climatology. His Atmospheric sciences research incorporates elements of Atmosphere, Canopy and Carbon flux. His biological study focuses on Ecosystem respiration.

The concepts of his Ecosystem study are interwoven with issues in Productivity, Boreal, Climate change and Wetland. Ankur R. Desai has researched Wetland in several fields, including Peat and Water table. As part of his studies on Carbon cycle, Ankur R. Desai frequently links adjacent subjects like Biosphere.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Atmospheric sciences (38.44%)
  • Eddy covariance (27.03%)
  • Ecosystem (19.52%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Atmospheric sciences (38.44%)
  • Eddy covariance (27.03%)
  • Ecosystem (19.52%)

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

Ankur R. Desai focuses on Atmospheric sciences, Eddy covariance, Ecosystem, Biogeosciences and Climate change. His Atmospheric sciences research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biome, Atmosphere, FluxNet and Wetland. The various areas that he examines in his Biome study include Carbon cycle and Chlorophyll fluorescence.

Ankur R. Desai integrates Eddy covariance and Flux in his research. His Ecosystem research is classified as research in Ecology. His Climate change research integrates issues from Soil water and Phenology.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Solar‐induced chlorophyll fluorescence is strongly correlated with terrestrial photosynthesis for a wide variety of biomes: First global analysis based on OCO‐2 and flux tower observations (95 citations)
  • The FLUXNET2015 dataset and the ONEFlux processing pipeline for eddy covariance data (67 citations)
  • Contrasting responses of autumn-leaf senescence to daytime and night-time warming (50 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Statistics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Atmospheric sciences, Eddy covariance, Ecosystem, Flux and FluxNet. The study incorporates disciplines such as Primary production, Vapour Pressure Deficit, Carbon sink, Methane and Biome in addition to Atmospheric sciences. Many of his research projects under Primary production are closely connected to Oxygen isotope ratio cycle and δ18O with Oxygen isotope ratio cycle and δ18O, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

His work in Ecosystem respiration addresses issues such as Database, which are connected to fields such as Climate change. His studies deal with areas such as Peat, Evapotranspiration, Carbon cycle and Spatial variability as well as Eddy covariance. His Ecosystem study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biosphere and Earth science.
