Günter Hoch

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Ecology
• Botany
• Photosynthesis

His main research concerns Growing season, Botany, Agronomy, Ecology and Tree. His Growing season research incorporates themes from Deciduous, Transect, Ecotone, Tree line and Evergreen. His research integrates issues of Temperate forest, Tilia and Interspecific competition in his study of Evergreen.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Sugar and Starch in addition to Botany. His study in Agronomy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Carbon metabolism and Woody plant. In the subject of general Ecology, his work in Temperate climate, Range, Phenology and Tree canopy is often linked to Dendrochronology, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

His most cited work include:

• Non‐structural carbon compounds in temperate forest trees (471 citations)
• Physiological mechanisms of drought-induced tree mortality are far from being resolved. (431 citations)
• The carbon charging of pines at the climatic treeline: a global comparison (248 citations)

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

Günter Hoch spends much of his time researching Botany, Ecology, Agronomy, Growing season and Horticulture. His work in Evergreen, Deciduous, Fagus sylvatica, Photosynthesis and Woody plant are all subfields of Botany research. His Phenology, Temperate climate, Range and Salix herbacea study, which is part of a larger body of work in Ecology, is frequently linked to Tree, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His Agronomy research focuses on Ecosystem and how it connects with Isotopes of carbon. His Growing season research integrates issues from Environmental chemistry, Ecotone, Transect and Tree line. His Horticulture study incorporates themes from Productivity, Carbohydrate and Sugar.

He most often published in these fields:

• Botany (45.35%)
• Ecology (25.58%)
• Agronomy (24.42%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

• Agronomy (24.42%)
• Ecology (25.58%)
• Drought stress (8.14%)

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

Günter Hoch mainly focuses on Agronomy, Ecology, Drought stress, Productivity and Growing season. His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Photosynthesis, Old-growth forest and Topsoil. His work in the fields of Tree species, Temperate climate and Picea abies overlaps with other areas such as Tree and Early onset.

His Drought stress research incorporates elements of Soil nutrients, Nutrient and Human fertilization. Günter Hoch combines subjects such as Field trial, Specific leaf area and Horticulture with his study of Productivity. His Growing season study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Environmental chemistry and Temperate rainforest.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• A first assessment of the impact of the extreme 2018 summer drought on Central European forests (72 citations)
• The handbook for standardized field and laboratory measurements in terrestrial climate change experiments and observational studies (ClimEx) (25 citations)
• Plant respiration: Controlled by photosynthesis or biomass? (17 citations)

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

• Ecology
• Botany
• Photosynthesis

His primary areas of investigation include Sunlight, Temperate climate, Climate change, Seedling and Light quality. Sunlight combines with fields such as Productivity, Shading, Carpinus betulus, Herbivore and Horticulture in his work. His Temperate climate study combines topics in areas such as Sugar, Temperate rainforest, Shade tolerance and Growing season.

Climate change is a subfield of Ecology that Günter Hoch investigates. His Seedling research spans across into subjects like Far-red, Latitude and Seasonal adjustment.
