Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Erosion
  • Statistics
  • Hydrology

Hydrology, Surface runoff, Erosion, Sediment and Shrubland are his primary areas of study. Anthony J. Parsons studies Rill, a branch of Hydrology. His Surface runoff research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Infiltration, Gulch, Desert pavement and Storm.

His Erosion research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Arid, Current, Watershed and Vegetation. His biological study deals with issues like Geomorphology, which deal with fields such as Aridity index, Desert and Arid zone. In his research on the topic of Sediment, Plot is strongly related with Drainage basin.

His most cited work include:

  • Geomorphology of Desert Environments (310 citations)
  • Plot-scale studies of vegetation, overland flow and erosion interactions: case studies from Arizona and New Mexico (246 citations)
  • Scale relationships in hillslope runoff and erosion (191 citations)

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

Anthony J. Parsons mostly deals with Hydrology, Surface runoff, Erosion, Sediment and Arid. His studies deal with areas such as Shrubland, Sediment transport and Soil science as well as Hydrology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Flow and Spatial variability.

As part of the same scientific family, Anthony J. Parsons usually focuses on Erosion, concentrating on Vegetation and intersecting with Field. His Sediment study incorporates themes from Drainage basin, Aeolian processes and Flume. His Arid study combines topics in areas such as Ecosystem, Resistance and Soil water balance.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hydrology (57.32%)
  • Surface runoff (40.24%)
  • Erosion (25.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2020)?

  • Hydrology (57.32%)
  • Erosion (25.00%)
  • Soil science (12.80%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Hydrology, Erosion, Soil science, Sediment and Surface runoff. His research in the fields of Drainage basin overlaps with other disciplines such as Spacetime. His Erosion research incorporates themes from Current, Splash and Remote sensing.

As a part of the same scientific family, Anthony J. Parsons mostly works in the field of Soil science, focusing on Sediment transport and, on occasion, Settling. His research in Surface runoff intersects with topics in Vegetation and Vegetation type. Anthony J. Parsons interconnects Shrubland, Soil test, Grassland, Physical geography and Arid in the investigation of issues within Vegetation type.

Between 2010 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • What can we learn about soil erosion from the use of 137Cs (127 citations)
  • Connectivity in dryland landscapes: shifting concepts of spatial interactions (110 citations)
  • Introduction to special issue on connectivity in water and sediment dynamics (63 citations)

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

  • Erosion
  • Statistics
  • Hydrology

Anthony J. Parsons spends much of his time researching Erosion, Sediment transport, Sediment, Hydrology and Soil science. The concepts of his Erosion study are interwoven with issues in Shrubland, Vegetation type, Soil test, Grassland and Current. His work carried out in the field of Sediment brings together such families of science as Drainage basin, Aeolian processes and Fluvial.

Anthony J. Parsons works mostly in the field of Aeolian processes, limiting it down to topics relating to Geochemistry and, in certain cases, Surface runoff, as a part of the same area of interest. His study on Hydrology is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Empirical research. His Soil science research includes themes of Settling, Suspended load, Hyperconcentrated flow and Bedform.
