  • 2012 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

Edith B. Allen is affiliated with the University of California, Riverside in the United States. Their research focuses primarily on environmental science and earth and planetary sciences, with particular attention to subfields including nature and landscape conservation, ecology, global and planetary change, paleontology, and anthropology.

The scientist's work covers a range of topics centered around ecological and environmental dynamics. Key research areas include:

  • Ecology and vegetation dynamics studies
  • Rangeland and wildlife management
  • Fire effects on ecosystems
  • Archaeology and ancient environmental studies
  • Pleistocene-era hominins and archaeology
  • Geology and paleoclimatology research
  • Rangeland management and livestock ecology

Edith B. Allen has published in various scientific outlets, with frequent contributions in the following venues:

  • Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)
  • Global Ecology and Conservation
  • Ecosphere
  • Global Change Biology
  • Terra Latinoamericana

Recent publications demonstrate a broad involvement in ecological and environmental conservation topics. Notable papers include:

  • Challenges and opportunities for grassland restoration: A global perspective of best practices in the era of climate change (2023, Global Ecology and Conservation)
  • Declines in native forb richness of an imperiled plant community across an anthropogenic nitrogen deposition gradient (2020, Ecosphere)
  • Nitrogen deposition suppresses ephemeral post-fire plant diversity (2024, Global Change Biology)
  • Glomeromycotina Guild Spore Abundance Correlates with Soil Organic Carbon in Homegardens and Seasonal Forests in Yucatan, Mexico (2024, Terra Latinoamericana)
  • Invasive grass density negatively impacts chaparral seedling establishment (2023, Restoration Ecology)

The scientist frequently collaborates with several researchers, with multiple joint publications with:
