What is she best known for?
The fields of study she is best known for:
Her primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Litter, Forest floor, Decomposition and Nutrient.
Her study connects Microbial population biology and Ecology.
Her Litter study combines topics in areas such as Forestry, Pinus contorta and Plant litter.
Her biological study deals with issues like Botany, which deal with fields such as Biomass.
Her studies in Forest floor integrate themes in fields like Soil biology, Western Hemlock, Agronomy, Tsuga and Clearcutting.
Her Decomposition study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Litter, Animal science and Lignin.
Her most cited work include:
- Litter decomposition: what controls it and how can we alter it to sequester more carbon in forest soils? (529 citations)
- Soil moisture is the major factor influencing microbial community structure and enzyme activities across seven biogeoclimatic zones in western Canada (489 citations)
- The influence of the forest canopy on nutrient cycling. (338 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Ecology, Agronomy, Forest floor, Nutrient and Forestry are her primary areas of study.
Ecology is closely attributed to Microbial population biology in her study.
Her study explores the link between Agronomy and topics such as Botany that cross with problems in Biomass.
Her studies deal with areas such as Soil biology, Humus, Mineralization, Forest ecology and Litter as well as Forest floor.
Her work in Nutrient addresses issues such as Animal science, which are connected to fields such as Decomposition.
Her study in Forestry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Woody plant and Nitrogen cycle.
She most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (39.75%)
- Agronomy (28.57%)
- Forest floor (28.57%)
What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Agronomy (28.57%)
- Soil water (19.88%)
- Forest ecology (9.94%)
In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:
Cindy E. Prescott spends much of her time researching Agronomy, Soil water, Forest ecology, Nutrient and Ecosystem.
Her Agronomy research includes themes of Forest floor, Forest management and Thinning.
Her Forest floor research incorporates elements of Soil organic matter, Biomass, Terrestrial ecosystem and Deciduous.
Her Soil water research focuses on subjects like Reforestation, which are linked to Forest restoration.
Her work on Plant litter as part of general Nutrient research is frequently linked to Moisture, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.
Plant community is a subfield of Ecology that Cindy E. Prescott tackles.
Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:
- Tamm Review: Influence of forest management activities on soil organic carbon stocks: A knowledge synthesis (35 citations)
- Forest adaptation to climate change—is non-management an option? (23 citations)
- Surplus Carbon Drives Allocation and Plant–Soil Interactions (17 citations)
In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
Her scientific interests lie mostly in Ecosystem, Forest management, Agronomy, Soil water and Production.
The subject of her Ecosystem research is within the realm of Ecology.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Climate change, Tree species and Environmental resource management in addition to Forest management.
Her research in Agronomy intersects with topics in Forest floor, Forest ecology, Terrestrial ecosystem and Topsoil.
The Soil water study combines topics in areas such as Denitrification, Denitrifying bacteria, Microbial population biology, Nitrogen cycle and Nutrient cycle.
Her Production study spans across into subjects like Photosynthesis, Microorganism and Nutrient.
