Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Ecosystem

His main research concerns Ecology, Dendrochronology, Basal area, Beech and Growing season. Ecology is closely attributed to Forest health in his study. His studies examine the connections between Dendrochronology and genetics, as well as such issues in Statistics, with regards to Econometrics.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Temperate rainforest, Secondary forest, Temperate forest, Biome and Tree line. He combines subjects such as Fagus sylvatica and Fagaceae with his study of Growing season. His Fagaceae research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Mediterranean climate, Mediterranean Basin and Forestry.

His most cited work include:

  • DENDROCLIM2002: A C++ program for statistical calibration of climate signals in tree-ring chronologies ☆ (851 citations)
  • North Pacific Decadal Climate Variability since 1661 (461 citations)
  • Pervasive drought legacies in forest ecosystems and their implications for carbon cycle models (427 citations)

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

Ecology, Dendrochronology, Climatology, Physical geography and Precipitation are his primary areas of study. Beech, Fagus sylvatica, Ecosystem, Climate change and Old-growth forest are among the areas of Ecology where Franco Biondi concentrates his study. His work investigates the relationship between Fagus sylvatica and topics such as Growing season that intersect with problems in Phenology.

His Dendrochronology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Elevation, Fagaceae, Forestry, Mediterranean climate and Chronology. His research in Forestry is mostly concerned with Basal area. His work in the fields of Climatology, such as Proxy, El Niño Southern Oscillation and Pacific decadal oscillation, overlaps with other areas such as Varve.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (37.10%)
  • Dendrochronology (37.90%)
  • Climatology (20.16%)

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

  • Dendrochronology (37.90%)
  • Ecology (37.10%)
  • Precipitation (18.55%)

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

Franco Biondi mainly focuses on Dendrochronology, Ecology, Precipitation, North American Monsoon and Forestry. His studies in Dendrochronology integrate themes in fields like Fagus sylvatica, Radiocarbon dating, Computer graphics and Physical geography. The Climate change, Mediterranean climate, Temperate climate and Global warming research Franco Biondi does as part of his general Ecology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Longevity, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

His Precipitation research incorporates elements of Elevation, Plant community, Plant cover and Evapotranspiration. His study explores the link between North American Monsoon and topics such as Water year that cross with problems in Warm season, Annual cycle, El Niño Southern Oscillation and Thunderstorm. His work carried out in the field of Forestry brings together such families of science as Massif, Pinus and Bark.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Climatically controlled reproduction drives interannual growth variability in a temperate tree species (40 citations)
  • Moisture-driven xylogenesis in Pinus ponderosa from a Mojave Desert mountain reveals high phenological plasticity. (37 citations)
  • Growth rate rather than growing season length determines wood biomass in dry environments (19 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Statistics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Forest ecology, Precipitation, Climate change and Dendrochronology. His Ecology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Massif and Forestry. His Forest ecology research includes elements of Fagus sylvatica, Trade-off, Path analysis and Temperate climate.

His Precipitation research focuses on Growing season and how it relates to Plateau, Xylem and Biomass. His study in Climate change is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Pinus edulis, Juniperus osteosperma, Picea engelmannii and Ecosystem. His Dendrochronology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biodiversity, Habitat, Atlantic multidecadal oscillation, Mediterranean climate and Anthropocene.
