Heikki Setälä focuses on Ecology, Soil biology, Ecosystem, Soil food web and Trophic level.
Food web, Biomass, Biodiversity, Decomposer and Microcosm are subfields of Ecology in which his conducts study.
His Biodiversity course of study focuses on Terrestrial ecosystem and Primary production, Ecosystem ecology, Ecology and Biota.
His Soil biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Soil carbon, Agronomy, Fauna, Soil biodiversity and Plant community.
His Ecosystem research focuses on Ecosystem services in particular.
Heikki Setälä combines subjects such as Species diversity and Soil ecology with his study of Soil food web.
His most cited work include:
- EFFECTS OF BIODIVERSITY ON ECOSYSTEM FUNCTIONING: A CONSENSUS OF CURRENT KNOWLEDGE (5255 citations)
