What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Ecosystem
- Biodiversity
His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Taiga, Charcoal, Holocene and Physical geography.
His Taiga study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Boreal, Forest management, Secondary forest, Fire frequency and General Circulation Model.
He has researched Charcoal in several fields, including Radiocarbon dating, Botany, Palynology, Soil water and Landscape ecology.
His study in Holocene is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Paleoclimatology, Picea abies and Tree line, Plant community, Vegetation.
His research on Physical geography frequently links to adjacent areas such as Fire regime.
His studies deal with areas such as Global warming, Climate change and Climatology as well as Fire regime.
His most cited work include:
- Climate and human influences on global biomass burning over the past two millennia (550 citations)
- Changes in Fire Regimes Since the Last Glacial Maximum: An Assessment Based on a Global Synthesis and Analysis of Charcoal Data (466 citations)
- Predictability of biomass burning in response to climate changes (291 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Christopher Carcaillet mainly investigates Ecology, Holocene, Physical geography, Vegetation and Charcoal.
In Holocene, he works on issues like Quaternary, which are connected to Cenozoic.
His studies in Physical geography integrate themes in fields like Biomass, Glacial period and Radiocarbon dating.
His Vegetation research includes themes of Disturbance and Taiga.
His research investigates the connection between Taiga and topics such as Boreal that intersect with issues in Dendrochronology.
The various areas that he examines in his Charcoal study include Botany, Soil water, Sediment, Sedimentary charcoal and Prehistory.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (90.82%)
- Holocene (52.04%)
- Physical geography (40.31%)
