Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Paleontology
  • Ecosystem

Annie Vincens mainly investigates Holocene, Ecology, Palynology, Vegetation and Climate change. The concepts of her Holocene study are interwoven with issues in Environmental change, Climatology and Paleoclimatology. All of her Ecology and Arid and Woodland investigations are sub-components of the entire Ecology study.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Glacial period, Last Glacial Maximum, Steppe, Biome and Mediterranean climate in addition to Palynology. Her studies in Vegetation integrate themes in fields like Pollen and Grassland. Her research in the fields of Global warming overlaps with other disciplines such as Environmental science.

Her most cited work include:

  • Phytoliths: indicators of grassland dynamics during the late Holocene in intertropical Africa (289 citations)
  • Biome reconstruction from pollen and plant macrofossil data for Africa and the Arabian peninsula at 0 and 6000 years (261 citations)
  • Pollen‐based biome reconstruction for southern Europe and Africa 18,000 yr bp (209 citations)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Vegetation, Pollen, Ecology, Holocene and Physical geography. Her Vegetation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Palynology, Sediment, Dry season, Plateau and Woodland. Her work is dedicated to discovering how Pollen, Oceanography are connected with Tephra and other disciplines.

Her study in Holocene is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Climatology, Monsoon, Paleoclimatology, Environmental change and Quaternary. Her work investigates the relationship between Climatology and topics such as Glacial period that intersect with problems in Biodiversity. Her Physical geography study also includes

  • Hydrology, which have a strong connection to Deposition,
  • Rainforest which is related to area like Transect.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Vegetation (32.32%)
  • Pollen (31.31%)
  • Ecology (31.31%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2014-2018)?

  • Sediment core (14.14%)
  • Oceanography (19.19%)
  • Biome (21.21%)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Sediment core, Oceanography, Biome, Environmental science and Pollen. In most of her Biome studies, her work intersects topics such as Climatology. Her studies deal with areas such as Glacial period, Climate change, Charcoal, Vegetation and Physical geography as well as Pollen.

Her Glacial period study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Palynology, Glacier and Bog. Her Vegetation research includes themes of Arid, Forest ecology and Biogeography. Her work deals with themes such as Deciduous, Holocene and Ecological threshold, which intersect with Physical geography.

Between 2014 and 2018, her most popular works were:

  • Past and future global transformation of terrestrial ecosystems under climate change (116 citations)
  • The ACER pollen and charcoal database: a global resource to document vegetation and fire response to abrupt climate changes during the last glacial period (21 citations)
  • Waxing and waning of forests: Late Quaternary biogeography of southeast Africa (18 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Paleontology
  • Ecosystem

Annie Vincens mostly deals with Pollen, Vegetation, Climate change, Ecology and Earth science. The Pollen study combines topics in areas such as Ecological threshold, Rainforest, Physical geography and Charcoal. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Climatology, Steppe and Disturbance.

Her Climate change study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Glacial period and Ecosystem. Her Ecosystem study combines topics in areas such as Global warming, Deciduous and Holocene. Her Earth science research integrates issues from Sedimentation, Erosion, Weathering, East African Rift and Terrestrial ecosystem.
