His Canopy research is included under the broader classification of Botany.
His Eddy covariance research incorporates elements of Sensible heat, Growing season and Water content.
As part of the same scientific family, he usually focuses on Ecology, concentrating on Forestry and intersecting with Chronosequence, Carbon sequestration, Carbon cycle and Carbon sink.
His work carried out in the field of Atmospheric sciences brings together such families of science as Vegetation, Stomatal conductance, Canopy conductance and Transpiration.
His most cited work include:
- Relationships among Maximum Stomatal Conductance, Ecosystem Surface Conductance, Carbon Assimilation Rate, and Plant Nitrogen Nutrition: A Global Ecology Scaling Exercise (554 citations)
- Leaf nitrogen, photosynthesis, conductance and transpiration : scaling from leaves to canopies (517 citations)
- Maximum conductances for evaporation from global vegetation types (513 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Francis M. Kelliher spends much of his time researching Soil water, Agronomy, Pasture, Atmospheric sciences and Botany.
His research in Soil water intersects with topics in Nitrous oxide, Organic matter and Water content.
In his research, Soil biodiversity is intimately related to Soil carbon, which falls under the overarching field of Agronomy.
His studies in Pasture integrate themes in fields like Total organic carbon, Soil test, Grazing and Animal science.
His research investigates the link between Atmospheric sciences and topics such as Canopy that cross with problems in Eddy covariance, Transpiration and Leaf area index.
Respiration is closely connected to Carbon dioxide in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Botany.
He most often published in these fields:
- Soil water (69.23%)
- Agronomy (37.06%)
- Pasture (25.87%)
