Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Photosynthesis

His scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Mediterranean climate, Xylem, Fagaceae and Evergreen. Botany is closely attributed to Agronomy in his research. His work in Mediterranean climate addresses subjects such as Coppicing, which are connected to disciplines such as Thinning.

Eustaquio Gil-Pelegrín works mostly in the field of Xylem, limiting it down to topics relating to Deserts and xeric shrublands and, in certain cases, Phenotypic plasticity. Eustaquio Gil-Pelegrín works mostly in the field of Fagaceae, limiting it down to concerns involving Hydraulic conductivity and, occasionally, Tree species, Plant physiology and Velutina. His Evergreen research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ballota and Transpiration.

His most cited work include:

  • Effects of a severe drought on Quercus ilex radial growth and xylem anatomy (190 citations)
  • Cavitation, stomatal conductance, and leaf dieback in seedlings of two co‐occurring Mediterranean shrubs during an intense drought (185 citations)
  • Functional groups in Quercus species derived from the analysis of pressure–volume curves (135 citations)

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

Eustaquio Gil-Pelegrín spends much of his time researching Botany, Ecology, Photosynthesis, Mediterranean climate and Agronomy. His research in Botany intersects with topics in Ballota and Horticulture. His work on Adaptation, Climate change and Logging as part of general Ecology study is frequently linked to Water transport and Abies alba, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

The Photosynthesis study combines topics in areas such as Chloroplast and Deschampsia antarctica. His work carried out in the field of Mediterranean climate brings together such families of science as Coppicing, Arid and Water stress. His Xylem study combines topics in areas such as Hydraulic conductivity, Range, Deserts and xeric shrublands and Fagaceae.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (54.08%)
  • Ecology (25.51%)
  • Photosynthesis (25.51%)

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

  • Photosynthesis (25.51%)
  • Ecology (25.51%)
  • Botany (54.08%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Photosynthesis, Ecology, Botany, Agronomy and Mediterranean climate. Eustaquio Gil-Pelegrín has researched Photosynthesis in several fields, including Hydraulic conductivity, Colobanthus quitensis, Deschampsia antarctica and Abscisic acid. Many of his studies on Botany involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Chloroplast.

His Agronomy research incorporates elements of Ecosystem and Transpiration. In his research on the topic of Mediterranean climate, Photosynthetic capacity is strongly related with Evergreen. His studies in Stomatal conductance integrate themes in fields like Temperate climate, Vapour Pressure Deficit, Seasonality, photoperiodism and Xylem.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Physico-chemical properties of plant cuticles and their functional and ecological significance. (75 citations)
  • Cell‐level anatomical characteristics explain high mesophyll conductance and photosynthetic capacity in sclerophyllous Mediterranean oaks (65 citations)
  • Oaks Physiological Ecology. Exploring the Functional Diversity of Genus Quercus L. (31 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Photosynthesis

Eustaquio Gil-Pelegrín mainly focuses on Botany, Photosynthesis, Ecology, Mediterranean climate and Sclerophyll. Stomatal conductance, Plant Physiological Phenomena, Herbaceous plant, Absorption of water and Deciduous are the primary areas of interest in his Botany study. His Stomatal conductance research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Agronomy, Twig, Ecosystem, Xylem and Ecotone.

His study in Photosynthesis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Colobanthus quitensis and Deschampsia antarctica. Eustaquio Gil-Pelegrín regularly ties together related areas like Ecophysiology in his Ecology studies. His studies deal with areas such as Limiting factor, Southern Hemisphere, Leaf size and Evergreen as well as Mediterranean climate.
