Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Tsuga, Understory, Hemlock woolly adelgid and Black birch. His study in Dendrochronology extends to Ecology with its themes. Tsuga and Green warbler are two areas of study in which David A. Orwig engages in interdisciplinary research.

His Hemlock woolly adelgid research includes themes of Woodpecker, Warbler, Empidonax and Nuthatch, Sitta carolinensis. His Black birch research incorporates themes from Forest floor, Derodontidae, Ecosystem services and Tsuga caroliniana. His study in Ecosystem is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Aquatic ecosystem and Introduced species.

His most cited work include:

  • Loss of foundation species: consequences for the structure and dynamics of forested ecosystems (1299 citations)
  • FOREST RESPONSE TO THE INTRODUCED HEMLOCK WOOLLY ADELGID IN SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND, USA (414 citations)
  • CTFS-ForestGEO: A worldwide network monitoring forests in an era of global change (319 citations)

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

David A. Orwig focuses on Ecology, Tsuga, Hemlock woolly adelgid, Ecosystem and Disturbance. Invasive species, Introduced species, Old-growth forest, Basal area and Black birch are the primary areas of interest in his Ecology study. David A. Orwig combines subjects such as Forestry and Woody plant with his study of Introduced species.

His Tsuga research incorporates elements of Range, Coarse woody debris, Secondary forest, Foundation species and Understory. David A. Orwig has researched Hemlock woolly adelgid in several fields, including Forest floor, Herbivore and Salvage logging. David A. Orwig interconnects Environmental resource management, Tropics and Threatened species in the investigation of issues within Ecosystem.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (84.31%)
  • Tsuga (40.20%)
  • Hemlock woolly adelgid (33.33%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Ecology (84.31%)
  • Hemlock woolly adelgid (33.33%)
  • Ecosystem (23.53%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Hemlock woolly adelgid, Ecosystem, Disturbance and Forestry. In the field of Invasive species, Infestation and Tsuga David A. Orwig studies Hemlock woolly adelgid. His Infestation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Canopy, Understory and Atmospheric sciences.

His Forest ecology study in the realm of Ecosystem interacts with subjects such as Family forest. His research investigates the link between Disturbance and topics such as Logging that cross with problems in Forest inventory and Woodland. His studies in Forestry integrate themes in fields like Biomass and Woody plant.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Global importance of large‐diameter trees (138 citations)
  • Fine-scale perspectives on landscape phenology from unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) photography (53 citations)
  • Direct and indirect effects of climate on richness drive the latitudinal diversity gradient in forest trees (26 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

David A. Orwig mainly investigates Ecology, Temperate forest, Species richness, Disturbance and Abundance. He undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Ecology and Term through his research. The concepts of his Temperate forest study are interwoven with issues in Temperate rainforest, Canopy, Deciduous, Lidar and Crown.

His Species richness study incorporates themes from Biomass, Biodiversity, Woody plant and Biome. The Abundance study combines topics in areas such as Niche differentiation, Global biodiversity, Species diversity and Basal area. His work in Rank abundance curve covers topics such as Species distribution which are related to areas like Hemlock woolly adelgid, Ordinal data, Relative abundance distribution and Range.
