2009 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Statistics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Biodiversity, Vegetation, Environmental resource management and Remote sensing. Frank W. Davis brings together Ecology and Valley oak to produce work in his papers. His research integrates issues of Range, Endangered species, Land use, Ecosystem and Nature reserve in his study of Biodiversity.

His work carried out in the field of Vegetation brings together such families of science as Landscape ecology, Radiometric dating and Oak forest. His biological study deals with issues like Species richness, which deal with fields such as Gap Analysis Program, Threatened species, Species diversity and Gap analysis. His Remote sensing research incorporates themes from Diffuse sky radiation, Elevation, Terrain and Growing season.

His most cited work include:

  • GAP ANALYSIS: A GEOGRAPHIC APPROACH TO PROTECTION OF BIOLOGICAL DIVERSITY (774 citations)
  • NATURE RESERVES: DO THEY CAPTURE THE FULL RANGE OF AMERICA'S BIOLOGICAL DIVERSITY? (491 citations)
  • Reserve selection as a maximal covering location problem (407 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Remote sensing, Environmental resource management, Vegetation and Biodiversity. His work on Range, Climate change and Woodland is typically connected to Valley oak as part of general Ecology study, connecting several disciplines of science. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Remote sensing, Atmospheric sciences and C band is strongly linked to Canopy.

His Environmental resource management study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biodiversity conservation, Wildlife and Ecosystem services. The various areas that Frank W. Davis examines in his Vegetation study include Chaparral, Terrain, Land cover, Scale and Mediterranean climate. Frank W. Davis has included themes like Species richness, Ecosystem, Endangered species and Land use in his Biodiversity study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (27.12%)
  • Remote sensing (20.34%)
  • Environmental resource management (14.69%)

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

  • Ecology (27.12%)
  • Physical geography (6.21%)
  • Global change (3.95%)

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

Frank W. Davis mainly focuses on Ecology, Physical geography, Global change, Biogeosciences and Ecology. His Ecology study often links to related topics such as Seedling. His Physical geography research incorporates elements of Range, Biodiversity, Chaparral, Precipitation and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index.

His Normalized Difference Vegetation Index research focuses on Aridification and how it connects with Canopy. His Ecology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Natural resource, Forestry and Oak woodlands. His study focuses on the intersection of Habitat and fields such as Random forest with connections in the field of Pixel and Vegetation.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Foundations of translational ecology (103 citations)
  • Satellite sensor requirements for monitoring essential biodiversity variables of coastal ecosystems (51 citations)
  • A convolutional neural network classifier identifies tree species in mixed-conifer forest from hyperspectral imagery (27 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Biodiversity

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Ecology, Precipitation, Political science and Sampling design. His studies deal with areas such as Atmospheric correction and Remote sensing as well as Ecology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Natural resource and Task in addition to Ecology.

His Precipitation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Canopy, Tree canopy, Atmospheric sciences, Water balance and Topographic Wetness Index. His Sampling design research includes themes of Archaeology and Biogeochemistry.
