Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Photosynthesis

Daniel A. Sims focuses on Environmental science, Remote sensing, Vegetation, Eddy covariance and Enhanced vegetation index. Environmental science and Ecosystem are two areas of study in which Daniel A. Sims engages in interdisciplinary work. His research combines Normalized Difference Vegetation Index and Remote sensing.

Daniel A. Sims works on Vegetation which deals in particular with Photochemical Reflectance Index. In his study, Photosynthetic pigment, Biological system and Xanthophyll is strongly linked to Red edge, which falls under the umbrella field of Photochemical Reflectance Index. His study looks at the intersection of Eddy covariance and topics like Photosynthetically active radiation with Carbon cycle and Biometeorology.

His most cited work include:

  • Relationships between leaf pigment content and spectral reflectance across a wide range of species, leaf structures and developmental stages (1916 citations)
  • The biochemical and molecular basis for photosynthetic acclimation to elevated atmospheric CO2 (387 citations)
  • Estimation of vegetation water content and photosynthetic tissue area from spectral reflectance: a comparison of indices based on liquid water and chlorophyll absorption features (386 citations)

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

His main research concerns Environmental science, Remote sensing, Photosynthesis, Botany and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index. Daniel A. Sims has included themes like Photochemical Reflectance Index, Chaparral and Vegetation in his Remote sensing study. His work in Photochemical Reflectance Index addresses issues such as Red edge, which are connected to fields such as Xanthophyll, Biological system, Photosynthetic pigment, Anthocyanin and Chlorophyll.

His Photosynthesis research integrates issues from Carbon dioxide and Respiration. His Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Mesocosm and Animal science. His Normalized Difference Vegetation Index research includes themes of Canopy and Hyperspectral imaging.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental science (51.16%)
  • Remote sensing (41.86%)
  • Photosynthesis (60.47%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2018)?

  • Environmental science (51.16%)
  • Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (27.91%)
  • Deciduous (13.95%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Environmental science, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, Deciduous, Remote sensing and Canopy. In his research, he undertakes multidisciplinary study on Environmental science and Moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer. His work in the fields of Photochemical Reflectance Index overlaps with other areas such as Enhanced vegetation index and Bidirectional reflectance distribution function.

His Deciduous research incorporates themes from Ecosystem and Agronomy. The concepts of his Remote sensing study are interwoven with issues in Carbon dioxide flux and Carbon flux. His Canopy research includes elements of Spectral signature, Terrestrial ecosystem, Vegetation and Stomatal conductance.

Between 2008 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Chronic water stress reduces tree growth and the carbon sink of deciduous hardwood forests. (109 citations)
  • Seasonal and inter-annual variation in view angle effects on MODIS vegetation indices at three forest sites (49 citations)
  • SpecNet revisited: bridging flux and remote sensing communities (47 citations)
