Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Ecology, Forest ecology, Agroforestry, Forest management and Agronomy are his primary areas of study. Many of his research projects under Ecology are closely connected to Tree root and Root with Tree root and Root, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. Godefridus M. J. Mohren has researched Forest ecology in several fields, including Carbon sequestration, Climate change, Transpiration and Stomatal conductance.

His Agroforestry research incorporates themes from Douglas fir and Logging. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Forest management, Sink, Carbon cycle, Carbon accounting, Afforestation and Forestry is strongly linked to Soil carbon. Godefridus M. J. Mohren combines subjects such as Beech, Soil water, Forest dynamics and Quercus robur with his study of Agronomy.

His most cited work include:

  • El Niño effects on the dynamics of terrestrial ecosystems. (386 citations)
  • Modeling carbon sequestration in afforestation, agroforestry and forest management projects: the CO2FIX V.2 approach (237 citations)
  • Towards a multidimensional root trait framework: a tree root review (177 citations)

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

Godefridus M. J. Mohren mostly deals with Agroforestry, Forestry, Ecology, Agronomy and Forest management. His Agroforestry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biomass, Agriculture, Forest ecology and Logging. His work on Basal area and Site index is typically connected to Scots pine as part of general Forestry study, connecting several disciplines of science.

His Climate change, Ecological succession, Woodland and Prosopis study, which is part of a larger body of work in Ecology, is frequently linked to Atmospheric sciences, bridging the gap between disciplines. His research integrates issues of Soil water and Nutrient in his study of Agronomy. The various areas that Godefridus M. J. Mohren examines in his Forest management study include Carbon sequestration, Soil carbon and Kyoto Protocol.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agroforestry (28.07%)
  • Forestry (26.90%)
  • Ecology (24.56%)

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

  • Basal area (8.77%)
  • Thinning (9.94%)
  • Site index (8.19%)

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

His primary areas of study are Basal area, Thinning, Site index, Forestry and Agronomy. His Site index research also works with subjects such as

  • Statistics together with Larch and Beech,
  • Stand Density Index which connect with Gompertz function. In the subject of general Forestry, his work in National forest inventory is often linked to Scots pine, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

His study in the field of Monoculture, Productivity and Crop is also linked to topics like Yield. Godefridus M. J. Mohren has included themes like Forest management, Agroforestry, Biodiversity and Ecosystem services in his Monoculture study. His study in Forest management is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Competition and Tree species.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Species and soil effects on overyielding of tree species mixtures in the Netherlands (14 citations)
  • Ecology, growth and management of black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.), a non-native species integrated into European forests (6 citations)
  • Rainfall seasonality and drought performance shape the distribution of tropical tree species in Ghana. (6 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Forest management, Productivity, Soil water and Scots pine. His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Eucalyptus, Eucalyptus saligna, Hectare and Nutrient. His Forest management study is related to the wider topic of Agroforestry.

In most of his Agroforestry studies, his work intersects topics such as Agriculture. His Soil water study incorporates themes from Betula pendula, Fagus sylvatica, Pedunculate and Quercus robur. Scots pine overlaps with fields such as Beech and Climate change in his research.
