Overview

Bruce A. Roundy is affiliated with Brigham Young University in the United States. Their research primarily spans the field of Environmental Science, with a strong focus on Ecology. Subfields of particular emphasis include Ecology, Global and Planetary Change, Nature and Landscape Conservation, Plant Science, and Environmental Chemistry.

The scientist's recent publications demonstrate a concentration on ecosystem dynamics and environmental effects over time. Notable papers include:

  • Plant functional groups and species contribute to ecological resilience a decade after woodland expansion treatments (2021, Ecosphere)
  • Effects of elevation and selective disturbance on soil climate and vegetation in big sagebrush communities (2021, Ecosphere)
  • Long-term effects of tree expansion and reduction on soil climate in a semiarid ecosystem (2020, Ecosphere)
  • Sagebrush recovery patterns after fuel treatments mediated by disturbance type and plant functional group interactions (2021, Ecosphere)
  • Treatment longevity and changes in surface fuel loads after pinyon-juniper mastication (2020, Ecosphere)

Frequent co-authors include Alexandra K. Urza, Jeanne C. Chambers, Stanley G. Kitchen, James D. McIver, and James B. Grace, each collaborating on multiple publications.

Publication venues reflect a focus on ecological and environmental research, with the majority of papers published in Ecosphere.
