Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Her primary areas of study are Ecology, Floodplain, Hydrology, Ecosystem and Habitat. Her work in Floodplain covers topics such as Arid which are related to areas like Ephemeral key, Water resource management and Littoral zone. Flood pulse concept, Flood myth and Hydrograph are subfields of Hydrology in which her conducts study.

The various areas that Fran Sheldon examines in her Flood pulse concept study include Range and Ecology. Her Ecosystem study incorporates themes from Biodiversity, Wetland and Environmental resource management. As part of one scientific family, Fran Sheldon deals mainly with the area of Habitat, narrowing it down to issues related to the Biological dispersal, and often Structural basin, Spatial variability, Spatial ecology and Fauna.

Her most cited work include:

  • Flow variability and the ecology of large rivers (601 citations)
  • A perspective on dryland river ecosystems (358 citations)
  • Mechanistic effects of low-flow hydrology on riverine ecosystems: ecological principles and consequences of alteration (163 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Hydrology, Ecosystem, Environmental resource management and Habitat. Floodplain, Invertebrate, Riparian zone, Biodiversity and Benthic zone are the core of her Ecology study. Her study in Hydrology, Water resources, Catchment hydrology, Flood myth and Water quality is done as part of Hydrology.

Her Ecosystem research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Range, Ecology and Nutrient. As part of the same scientific family, she usually focuses on Environmental resource management, concentrating on River ecosystem and intersecting with Flood pulse concept. Her Habitat research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Spatial ecology, Ephemeral key and Biological dispersal.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (54.69%)
  • Hydrology (31.25%)
  • Ecosystem (21.09%)

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

  • Ecology (54.69%)
  • Ecosystem (21.09%)
  • Fishery (5.47%)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Ecosystem, Fishery, Biodiversity and STREAMS. Her Ecology study is mostly concerned with Riparian zone, Benthic zone, Species richness, Regeneration and Shrub. The study incorporates disciplines such as Environmental resource management, Vegetation, Dominance and Nutrient, Eutrophication in addition to Ecosystem.

Her Environmental resource management research incorporates themes from River ecosystem and Complex adaptive system. Her work deals with themes such as Elevation, Alpine climate and Habitat, which intersect with Fishery. Her Biodiversity research includes themes of Arid, Protected area and Revegetation.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Research priorities for freshwater mussel conservation assessment (56 citations)
  • Recovery of decomposition rates and decomposer invertebrates during rain forest restoration on disused pasture (7 citations)
  • Changes in foliage projective cover and its implications for mapping groundwater dependent vegetation across a precipitation gradient (7 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Fran Sheldon spends much of her time researching Ecosystem, Vegetation, Arid, Ordination and Fishery. Her study in Ecosystem is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Environmental resource management and Complex adaptive system. Her studies deal with areas such as Forestry, Reforestation, Pasture and Litter as well as Vegetation.

Her research integrates issues of Gamma diversity, Biome, Distance decay, Biological dispersal and Rarefaction in her study of Arid. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Zoology, Range and Shrimp.
