Overview

Jos T. A. Verhoeven is affiliated with Utrecht University in the Netherlands. Their research primarily focuses on environmental science, with a particular emphasis on ecology and related subfields. Their work extends into various areas such as plant science, environmental management policies, demography, and oceanography.

The scientist has contributed to studies on coastal wetland ecosystem dynamics, peatlands and wetlands ecology, and botany and plant ecology. Additional research interests include environmental conservation and management, agricultural and environmental management, and marine and coastal plant biology.

Verhoeven's recent publications include two papers from 2024. The first, titled "Microclimatological consequences for plant and microbial composition in Sphagnum-dominated peatlands," was published in Data Archiving and Networked Services (DANS). The second paper, "The effect of intentional summer flooding for mosquito control on the nitrogen dynamics of impounded Avicennia germinans mangrove forests," appeared in Scientific Reports.

Frequent coauthors in their research include Shuqing An, Shenglai Yin, Nasreen Jeelani, Bjorn J. M. Robroek, and E. R. Jasper Wubs. The publication venues where Verhoeven's work appears most often include Data Archiving and Networked Services (DANS) and Scientific Reports.
