Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Climate change

David Medvigy mostly deals with Climatology, Ecosystem, Climate change, Terrestrial ecosystem and Productivity. His research investigates the connection with Climatology and areas like Dry season which intersect with concerns in Precipitation, Tropical savanna climate, Tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests and Tropical ecology. His Ecosystem research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Vegetation, Atmospheric sciences, Phenology and Deciduous.

His study explores the link between Atmospheric sciences and topics such as Ecology that cross with problems in Carbon sequestration. His research in the fields of Climate model overlaps with other disciplines such as Realism. His Productivity research incorporates elements of Forest dynamics, Field and Biosphere.

His most cited work include:

  • Mechanistic scaling of ecosystem function and dynamics in space and time: Ecosystem Demography model version 2 (321 citations)
  • Mechanistic scaling of ecosystem function and dynamics in space and time: Ecosystem Demography model version 2 (321 citations)
  • Vegetation demographics in Earth System Models: A review of progress and priorities. (220 citations)

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

David Medvigy mainly investigates Atmospheric sciences, Climatology, Ecology, Amazon rainforest and Ecosystem. His Atmospheric sciences research incorporates elements of Atmosphere, Permafrost, Arctic, Vegetation and Methane. His Climatology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Climate change, Climate model, Phenology, Precipitation and Dry season.

His work deals with themes such as Primary production and Boreal, which intersect with Climate change. His Amazon rainforest research integrates issues from Teleconnection and Mesoscale meteorology. His Ecosystem study incorporates themes from Productivity and Biosphere.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Atmospheric sciences (26.89%)
  • Climatology (31.93%)
  • Ecology (28.57%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Ecology (28.57%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (26.89%)
  • Biogeochemistry (4.20%)

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

David Medvigy focuses on Ecology, Atmospheric sciences, Biogeochemistry, Carbon cycle and Biomass. His work on Ecosystem services, Tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, Competition and Climate change as part of general Ecology study is frequently connected to Tree, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. His research integrates issues of Methane emissions, Anaerobic oxidation of methane and Arctic in his study of Atmospheric sciences.

He has included themes like Spatial ecology, Secondary succession, Ecosystem and Forest dynamics in his Biogeochemistry study. David Medvigy interconnects Biosphere model and Earth system science in the investigation of issues within Ecosystem. His studies deal with areas such as Reforestation, Nitrogen fixation, Ecological succession, Carbon sequestration and Carbon sink as well as Carbon cycle.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A reversal in global terrestrial stilling and its implications for wind energy production (56 citations)
  • A catastrophic tropical drought kills hydraulically vulnerable tree species (27 citations)
  • The biophysics, ecology, and biogeochemistry of functionally diverse, vertically and horizontally heterogeneous ecosystems: the Ecosystem Demography model, version 2.2 – Part 1: Model description (22 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Climate change

David Medvigy mainly focuses on Biogeochemistry, Biomass, Ecosystem, Wind power and Wind speed. His Biogeochemistry study combines topics in areas such as Carbon cycle, Vegetation, Plant functional type, Terrestrial ecosystem and Earth system science. His Biomass study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, Deciduous, Canopy and Evergreen.

His Ecosystem research includes themes of Soil texture, Ecology, Atmospheric sciences and Secondary succession. His Wind power research incorporates themes from Meteorology and Surface wind speed.
