1997 - 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
  • Carbon dioxide
  • Ecosystem

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Arctic, Hydrology, Ecosystem and Tundra. His work on Dissolved organic carbon, Plankton, Terrestrial ecosystem and Trophic level as part of general Ecology study is frequently connected to Spatial variability, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. His research investigates the connection with Arctic and areas like Permafrost which intersect with concerns in Climate change, Environmental chemistry, Water column, Soil water and Effects of global warming.

His research in Hydrology intersects with topics in Atmosphere and Anoxic waters. The concepts of his Ecosystem study are interwoven with issues in Species richness and Soil microbiology. His work deals with themes such as Biodiversity and Bacterioplankton, which intersect with Tundra.

His most cited work include:

  • Carbon Dioxide Supersaturation in the Surface Waters of Lakes (898 citations)
  • Arctic Lakes and Streams as Gas Conduits to the Atmosphere: Implications for Tundra Carbon Budgets (476 citations)
  • Stable Isotopes and Planktonic Trophic Structure in Arctic Lakes (393 citations)

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

George W. Kling mainly focuses on Ecology, Arctic, Hydrology, Soil water and Permafrost. His Ecology research focuses on Tundra, Ecosystem, Trophic level, Productivity and Terrestrial ecosystem. His Arctic research focuses on subjects like Climate change, which are linked to Climatology.

The various areas that George W. Kling examines in his Hydrology study include Limnic eruption and Water column. George W. Kling combines subjects such as Environmental chemistry, Dissolved organic carbon and Mesocosm with his study of Soil water. His study looks at the relationship between Permafrost and fields such as Hydrology, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (30.34%)
  • Arctic (27.59%)
  • Hydrology (23.45%)

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

  • Permafrost (19.31%)
  • Arctic (27.59%)
  • Soil water (20.69%)

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

George W. Kling spends much of his time researching Permafrost, Arctic, Soil water, Environmental chemistry and Dissolved organic carbon. His Permafrost study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Groundwater flow, Cryosphere and Hydrology, Hydrology, Groundwater. His Arctic research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Global warming, Sea ice, Atmospheric sciences and Methane.

His Soil water research incorporates themes from Total organic carbon and Tundra, Terrestrial ecosystem, Ecosystem. His Environmental chemistry study combines topics in areas such as Carbon cycle and Sunlight. His Algal bloom research is under the purview of Ecology.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms are a biological disturbance to Western Lake Erie bacterial communities (95 citations)
  • Interactions between sunlight and microorganisms influence dissolved organic matter degradation along the aquatic continuum (47 citations)
  • Nitrate is an important nitrogen source for Arctic tundra plants. (42 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Carbon dioxide
  • Ecosystem

George W. Kling mostly deals with Permafrost, Arctic, Dissolved organic carbon, Environmental chemistry and Ecology. His Arctic research incorporates elements of Groundwater flow, Global warming, Climate change, Groundwater and Physical geography. George W. Kling interconnects Carbon cycle and Sunlight in the investigation of issues within Dissolved organic carbon.

George W. Kling regularly links together related areas like Carbon dioxide in his Environmental chemistry studies. His Ecology study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Chlorophyll a. His Nitrate study which covers Soil water that intersects with Tundra.
