Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

Ecology
Ecosystem
Botany

Barbara J. Bentz focuses on Ecology, Dendroctonus, Mountain pine beetle, Bark beetle and Climate change. Her study brings together the fields of Data analysis and Ecology. Her Dendroctonus research integrates issues from PEST analysis, Phloem, Pinus contorta and Introduced species.

Her research on Mountain pine beetle also deals with topics like

Range which is related to area like Cold hardening,
Larva which intersects with area such as Insect. Her study in the field of Dendroctonus rufipennis is also linked to topics like Outbreak. Barbara J. Bentz does research in Climate change, focusing on Global warming specifically.

Her most cited work include:

Cross-scale Drivers of Natural Disturbances Prone to Anthropogenic Amplification: The Dynamics of Bark Beetle Eruptions (1193 citations)
Climate Change and Bark Beetles of the Western United States and Canada: Direct and Indirect Effects (841 citations)
Tree mortality from drought, insects, and their interactions in a changing climate (337 citations)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Mountain pine beetle, Dendroctonus, Bark beetle and Climate change. Her work on Range, Pinus contorta, Host and Disturbance is typically connected to Outbreak as part of general Ecology study, connecting several disciplines of science. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Agroforestry, Habitat, Biological dispersal and Phenology.

Her Dendroctonus study also includes

Phloem most often made with reference to Curculionidae,
Bristlecone Pine which is related to area like Limber pine. Her studies in Bark beetle integrate themes in fields like Bark, Resistance and Infestation. Her studies deal with areas such as Ecosystem, Cold hardening and Seasonality as well as Climate change.

She most often published in these fields:

Ecology (81.29%)
Mountain pine beetle (67.63%)
Dendroctonus (41.73%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

Ecology (81.29%)
Mountain pine beetle (67.63%)
Dendroctonus (41.73%)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Mountain pine beetle, Dendroctonus, Climate change and Bark beetle. Barbara J. Bentz conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Ecology and Outbreak through her works. The Mountain pine beetle study combines topics in areas such as Agroforestry, Bristlecone Pine, Reproductive success and Diapause.

Her Dendroctonus study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Range, Integrated pest management, Phenology, Curculionidae and Pinus contorta. Her Climate change research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Population growth, Ecosystem and Habitat. Her work carried out in the field of Bark beetle brings together such families of science as Biological dispersal and Bark.

Between 2013 and 2021, her most popular works were:

Tree mortality from drought, insects, and their interactions in a changing climate (337 citations)
Observed and anticipated impacts of drought on forest insects and diseases in the United States (160 citations)
Interactions among the Mountain Pine Beetle, Fires, and Fuels (98 citations)
