Overview

Jiaojun Zhu is affiliated with the Chinese Academy of Sciences in China. Their research primarily focuses on environmental science and agricultural and biological sciences, with a total of 143 publications in environmental science and 46 in agricultural and biological sciences.

Their subfields of study include global and planetary change, nature and landscape conservation, soil science, ecology, and atmospheric science. Specifically, Zhu's work covers global and planetary change with 63 publications, nature and landscape conservation with 46, soil science with 21, ecology with 16, and atmospheric science with 16.

The main topics of Zhu's research involve plant water relations and carbon dynamics, forest ecology and management, ecology and vegetation dynamics studies, fire effects on ecosystems, soil carbon and nitrogen dynamics, tree-ring climate responses, and forest ecology and biodiversity studies. The number of publications per topic are as follows:

  • Plant Water Relations and Carbon Dynamics (54)
  • Forest ecology and management (42)
  • Ecology and Vegetation Dynamics Studies (40)
  • Fire effects on ecosystems (30)
