Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Hydrology

His main research concerns Hydrology, Surface runoff, Drainage basin, Bedrock and Watershed. Hydrology is frequently linked to Biogeochemical cycle in his study. His studies deal with areas such as Water table, Subsurface flow and Precipitation as well as Surface runoff.

His Drainage basin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Acid neutralizing capacity, Surface water and STREAMS. His multidisciplinary approach integrates Bedrock and Trench in his work. His biological study deals with issues like Storm, which deal with fields such as Terrain, Range, Runoff curve number and Runoff model.

His most cited work include:

  • Who needs environmental monitoring (351 citations)
  • Hot Spots and Hot Moments in Riparian Zones: Potential for Improved Water Quality Management (326 citations)
  • The role of bedrock topography on subsurface storm flow (295 citations)

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

Hydrology, Watershed, Drainage basin, Nitrate and Environmental chemistry are his primary areas of study. His Hydrology research focuses on Soil water and how it connects with Ecosystem and Hydrology. His Watershed research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Methylmercury and Mountain research.

His Drainage basin research includes themes of Ecology, Wetland, Precipitation and Surface water. His Nitrate study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Deposition, Acid rain, Atmospheric sciences, Water quality and Nutrient. His Surface runoff study incorporates themes from Bedrock, Water table and Subsurface flow.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hydrology (53.05%)
  • Watershed (21.95%)
  • Drainage basin (20.73%)

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

  • Environmental chemistry (17.68%)
  • Nitrate (18.29%)
  • Hydrology (53.05%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Environmental chemistry, Nitrate, Hydrology, Watershed and STREAMS. His research investigates the connection with Environmental chemistry and areas like Contamination which intersect with concerns in Soil test. His research in Nitrate intersects with topics in Acid rain, Atmospheric sciences and Groundwater.

His work often combines Hydrology and Vegetation type studies. Douglas A. Burns works mostly in the field of Watershed, limiting it down to topics relating to Nutrient and, in certain cases, Bay and Estuary. The various areas that Douglas A. Burns examines in his STREAMS study include Soil water, Acid neutralizing capacity, Fishery, Spatial ecology and Wetland.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Decreased atmospheric nitrogen deposition in eastern North America: Predicted responses of forest ecosystems. (46 citations)
  • River network saturation concept: factors influencing the balance of biogeochemical supply and demand of river networks (35 citations)
  • Watershed 'Chemical Cocktails': Forming Novel Elemental Combinations in Anthropocene Fresh Waters. (26 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Hydrology

Douglas A. Burns spends much of his time researching Nitrate, Biogeochemical cycle, Atmospheric sciences, Environmental chemistry and Acid rain. Douglas A. Burns has researched Biogeochemical cycle in several fields, including Watershed, Water quality and Biogeochemistry. His Environmental chemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Soil water, Soil chemistry, Acid neutralizing capacity, Groundwater and Sulfur dioxide.

His Acid rain research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Surface water and Spatial variability. His Surface water study is focused on Hydrology in general. His study connects Growing season and Hydrology.
