What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Ecosystem
- Habitat
His primary areas of study are Ecology, Grassland, Grazing, Forb and Primary production.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Dominance and Shrubland, Ecosystem in addition to Grassland.
John M. Briggs combines subjects such as Agroforestry, Deserts and xeric shrublands, Tundra and Biome with his study of Shrubland.
His Grazing research includes elements of Shrub, Abundance, Woody plant, Species diversity and Juniperus virginiana.
His studies deal with areas such as Habitat fragmentation, Biodiversity, Species richness, Conservation grazing and Herbivore as well as Species diversity.
The various areas that John M. Briggs examines in his Forb study include Poaceae, Nutrient and Growing season.
His most cited work include:
- Global Change and the Ecology of Cities (3447 citations)
- Modulation of Diversity by Grazing and Mowing in Native Tallgrass Prairie (798 citations)
- The Keystone Role of Bison in North American Tallgrass Prairie (593 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Grassland, Ecosystem, Grazing and Agroforestry.
His Shrub, Species diversity, Woody plant, Vegetation and Plant community investigations are all subjects of Ecology research.
John M. Briggs works mostly in the field of Species diversity, limiting it down to concerns involving Species richness and, occasionally, Biodiversity.
His Biodiversity study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Urbanization, Urban planning, Urban ecosystem and Introduced species.
In his research, Biomass and Graminoid is intimately related to Productivity, which falls under the overarching field of Grassland.
His Grazing research includes themes of Herbivore and Herbaceous plant.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (60.49%)
- Grassland (32.10%)
- Ecosystem (19.75%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?
- Ecology (60.49%)
- Ecosystem (19.75%)
- Grassland (32.10%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Ecosystem, Grassland, Climate change and Fire ecology.
His research on Ecology frequently links to adjacent areas such as Agroforestry.
His Ecosystem research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Dryland farming, Resource and Environmental resource management.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Shrub and Shrubland, Vegetation.
His work in Fire ecology covers topics such as Woodland which are related to areas like Dominance.
His research in Grazing intersects with topics in Foraging and Herbivore.
Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Fire dynamics distinguish grasslands, shrublands and woodlands as alternative attractors in the Central Great Plains of North America (79 citations)
- Assessing the Potential for Transitions from Tallgrass Prairie to Woodlands: Are We Operating Beyond Critical Fire Thresholds?☆ (37 citations)
- Community stability does not preclude ecosystem sensitivity to chronic resource alteration (23 citations)
