Frederick C. Meinzer

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Botany
• Ecology
• Ecosystem

His scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Transpiration, Xylem, Hydraulic conductivity and Stomatal conductance. In general Botany, his work in Canopy is often linked to Water transport linking many areas of study. His Transpiration study incorporates themes from Anacardium excelsum, Humidity, Water potential and Crown.

His work deals with themes such as Allometry, Water use, Soil water, Cavitation and Tree species, which intersect with Xylem. His studies in Hydraulic conductivity integrate themes in fields like Tropical climate, Poaceae, Saccharum and Woody plant. His work on Turgor pressure as part of his general Horticulture study is frequently connected to Water source, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

His most cited work include:

• A review of whole-plant water use studies in tree. (486 citations)
• Carbon dynamics in trees: feast or famine? (462 citations)
• Stem water storage and diurnal patterns of water use in tropical forest canopy trees (390 citations)

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

Frederick C. Meinzer mainly investigates Botany, Transpiration, Horticulture, Xylem and Stomatal conductance. His research integrates issues of Hydraulic conductivity and Agronomy in his study of Botany. His Transpiration research includes themes of Water use, Ecology, Evergreen, Atmospheric sciences and Humidity.

Frederick C. Meinzer has included themes like Hydraulic conductance, Metrosideros polymorpha and Sucrose in his Horticulture study. His research investigates the connection between Xylem and topics such as Osmotic pressure that intersect with problems in Apoplast. His studies deal with areas such as Cultivar, Vapour Pressure Deficit, Water-use efficiency, Water balance and Crown as well as Stomatal conductance.

He most often published in these fields:

• Botany (58.16%)
• Transpiration (31.21%)
• Horticulture (28.72%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

• Botany (58.16%)
• Ecology (21.28%)
• Stomatal conductance (27.30%)

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

Frederick C. Meinzer spends much of his time researching Botany, Ecology, Stomatal conductance, Agronomy and Xylem. Frederick C. Meinzer combines topics linked to Horticulture with his work on Botany. His work carried out in the field of Ecology brings together such families of science as Atmospheric sciences and Transpiration.

His work on Hydraulic redistribution and Canopy conductance as part of general Transpiration study is frequently linked to Water transport, bridging the gap between disciplines. The Stomatal conductance study combines topics in areas such as Photosynthetic capacity, Woody plant, Water-use efficiency and Seedling. Frederick C. Meinzer interconnects Hydraulic conductivity, Soil science, Temperate forest and Drought tolerance in the investigation of issues within Xylem.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• The dynamic pipeline: hydraulic capacitance and xylem hydraulic safety in four tall conifer species. (98 citations)
• Mapping 'hydroscapes' along the iso- to anisohydric continuum of stomatal regulation of plant water status (97 citations)
• Dynamics of leaf water relations components in co‐occurring iso‐ and anisohydric conifer species (87 citations)

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

• Ecology
• Botany
• Ecosystem

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Botany, Stomatal conductance, Climate change and Water transport. His work on Ecosystem and Water use as part of general Ecology research is often related to Isotopes of oxygen, thus linking different fields of science. His Water use study which covers Drought tolerance that intersects with Xylem.

Stomatal conductance is the subject of his research, which falls under Photosynthesis. His study looks at the intersection of Climate change and topics like Biome with Transpiration and Water cycle. His Water transport investigation overlaps with other disciplines such as Hydraulic conductivity and Hydraulics.
