David A. Mortensen

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Ecology
• Agriculture
• Statistics

His primary areas of study are Weed, Agronomy, Weed control, Agroforestry and Ecology. His Weed study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Foxtail and Statistics. His research in the fields of Poaceae, Abutilon, Sunflower and Tillage overlaps with other disciplines such as Geostatistics.

David A. Mortensen combines subjects such as Environmental quality and Setaria viridis with his study of Weed control. The Agroforestry study combines topics in areas such as Agriculture, Cropping system, Crop rotation, Spatial stability and Linear interpolation. David A. Mortensen interconnects Biological dispersal and Population size in the investigation of issues within Ecology.

His most cited work include:

• Color Indices for Weed Identification Under Various Soil, Residue, and Lighting Conditions (622 citations)
• Arctic tundra: A source or sink for atmospheric carbon dioxide in a changing environment? (286 citations)
• A framework for evaluating ecosystem services provided by cover crops in agroecosystems (246 citations)

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

David A. Mortensen mostly deals with Agronomy, Weed, Weed control, Ecology and Cover crop. His Weed research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Agroforestry, Agriculture and Monoculture. He has researched Weed control in several fields, including Sunflower, Soil fertility, Crop rotation, Competition and Glyphosate.

His research investigates the connection between Ecology and topics such as Biological dispersal that intersect with problems in Conyza canadensis. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cash crop, Biomass, Secale, Biomass and No-till farming in addition to Cover crop. His work on Poaceae is typically connected to Binary image as part of general Botany study, connecting several disciplines of science.

He most often published in these fields:

• Agronomy (59.76%)
• Weed (46.95%)
• Weed control (28.66%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

• Agronomy (59.76%)
• Cover crop (17.68%)
• Weed (46.95%)

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

Agronomy, Cover crop, Weed, Sowing and Tillage are his primary areas of study. His studies in Agronomy integrate themes in fields like No-till farming and Ecophysiology. His Cover crop research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biomass, Soil fertility, Cash crop and Ecosystem services.

His work carried out in the field of Weed brings together such families of science as Weed control and Agroecology. His Sowing research includes elements of Monoculture, Red Clover, Growing season and Seeding. David A. Mortensen has researched Tillage in several fields, including Soil organic matter, Soil carbon, Crop yield and Crop.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• Agriculture in 2050: Recalibrating Targets for Sustainable Intensification (233 citations)
• Achieving Diverse Cover Crop Mixtures: Effects of Planting Date and Seeding Rate (50 citations)
• Weed Suppression in Cover Crop Monocultures and Mixtures (48 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

• Ecology
• Agriculture
• Statistics

His primary scientific interests are in Cover crop, Agronomy, Weed, Agriculture and Sowing. In the subject of general Agronomy, his work in Forage and Weed control is often linked to Rotation and Yield, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His research in Weed intersects with topics in Biomass, Legume and Soil fertility.

The various areas that David A. Mortensen examines in his Agriculture study include Discipline, Ecology and Transdisciplinarity. David A. Mortensen combines subjects such as Ecology and Ecosystem services with his study of Discipline. His studies deal with areas such as Monoculture, Red Clover, Secale, Seeding and Avena as well as Sowing.
