His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Ecosystem, Environmental chemistry, Experimental forest and Hydrology. His Ecosystem research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Vegetation types, Agroforestry, Biodiversity and Nitrogen cycle. His research investigates the connection with Nitrogen cycle and areas like Marine ecosystem which intersect with concerns in Greenhouse gas.
His research investigates the link between Environmental chemistry and topics such as Acid rain that cross with problems in Nitric acid and Sulfuric acid. In Experimental forest, Gene E. Likens works on issues like Discharge, which are connected to Surface water. His Hydrology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Throughfall, Soil water and Deposition.
His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Ecosystem, Hydrology, Environmental chemistry and Experimental forest. Ecology is closely attributed to Nitrogen cycle in his research. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Ecosystem, Ecosystem management and Environmental monitoring is strongly linked to Environmental resource management.
His Hydrology study combines topics in areas such as Nitrate, Biogeochemical cycle and Precipitation. His study looks at the relationship between Environmental chemistry and topics such as Acid rain, which overlap with Pollution. He interconnects Nutrient cycle and Soil water in the investigation of issues within Experimental forest.
Gene E. Likens mainly focuses on Ecology, Ecosystem, Hydrology, Experimental forest and Watershed. Ecology and Environmental resource management are frequently intertwined in his study. His research in Environmental resource management tackles topics such as Biodiversity which are related to areas like Environmental change.
His Ecosystem research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Woodland, Nitrogen cycle and Precipitation. His Hydrology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Nitrate and Biogeochemical cycle. His studies deal with areas such as Environmental chemistry, Deposition, Acid rain, Soil water and Weathering as well as Watershed.
Gene E. Likens spends much of his time researching Ecology, Ecosystem, Environmental resource management, Environmental monitoring and Hydrology. His study brings together the fields of Nitrogen cycle and Ecology. Gene E. Likens has included themes like Environmental change, Climate change, Growing season and Wildlife in his Ecosystem study.
His Environmental resource management research includes elements of Resource, Risk analysis and Ecosystem management. His work carried out in the field of Environmental monitoring brings together such families of science as Tropospheric ozone, Particulates, Pollutant and Air quality index. His work deals with themes such as Soil science, Spatial heterogeneity, Biogeochemical cycle and Biogeochemistry, which intersect with Hydrology.
