Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Her primary scientific interests are in Atmospheric sciences, Deposition, Mineral dust, Meteorology and Hydrology. Her Atmospheric sciences study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Peninsula. Her work deals with themes such as Mediterranean climate, Mediterranean ecosystem and Particulates, which intersect with Mineral dust.

Her Particulates research focuses on Climatology and how it relates to Precipitation. Her studies deal with areas such as Kaolinite, Clay minerals and Seasonality as well as Meteorology. Her Hydrology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Environmental chemistry, Evergreen and Acid rain.

Her most cited work include:

  • Mineralogical composition of African dust delivered by red rains over northeastern Spain (236 citations)
  • Wet and dry African dust episodes over eastern Spain (201 citations)
  • Characterisation of TSP and PM2.5 at Izaña and Sta. Cruz de Tenerife (Canary Islands, Spain) during a Saharan Dust Episode (July 2002) (163 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Mediterranean climate, Deposition, Hydrology, Environmental chemistry and Precipitation. Her Mediterranean climate study deals with Nitrate intersecting with Baseflow. Her study in Deposition is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Biogeochemical cycle, Particulates, Ecosystem, Pollution and Evergreen.

Her Hydrology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Throughfall, Soil water and Tree canopy. Anna Avila focuses mostly in the field of Environmental chemistry, narrowing it down to matters related to Trace element and, in some cases, Mineralogy. Her Precipitation research includes elements of Streamflow and Weathering.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Mediterranean climate (38.20%)
  • Deposition (37.08%)
  • Hydrology (34.83%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2020)?

  • Mediterranean climate (38.20%)
  • Deposition (37.08%)
  • Environmental chemistry (24.72%)

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

Anna Avila mainly focuses on Mediterranean climate, Deposition, Environmental chemistry, Ecosystem and Atmospheric sciences. Her Mediterranean climate research incorporates elements of Habitat, Throughfall, Canopy, Climate change and Temperate rainforest. Her Throughfall research integrates issues from Hydrology, Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria, Nitrification and Nitrate.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Particulates, Pollution, Biogeochemical cycle and Evergreen in addition to Deposition. Her studies examine the connections between Environmental chemistry and genetics, as well as such issues in Air pollution, with regards to Arid and STREAMS. Her research in Atmospheric sciences intersects with topics in Mineral dust and Nitrogen deposition.

Between 2016 and 2020, her most popular works were:

  • Early stage litter decomposition across biomes (83 citations)
  • Ecological impacts of atmospheric pollution and interactions with climate change in terrestrial ecosystems of the Mediterranean Basin: Current research and future directions (59 citations)
  • Quantifying Dry and Wet Deposition Fluxes in Two Regions of Contrasting African Influence: The NE Iberian Peninsula and the Canary Islands (13 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Mediterranean climate, Climate change, Deposition, Pollution and Atmosphere are her primary areas of study. Her Mediterranean climate study incorporates themes from Biodiversity and Particulates. Her Climate change research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Decomposition, Ecosystem, Ecosystem services, Environmental monitoring and Air pollution.

She has researched Deposition in several fields, including Throughfall, Canopy, Tree canopy, Hydrology and Forest ecology. Anna Avila has included themes like Atmospheric sciences, Mineral dust, Plume, Mineralogy and Evergreen in her Pollution study. Her Atmosphere research includes themes of Environmental chemistry, Biome, Terrestrial ecosystem and Litter.
