Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

Ecology
Ecosystem
Carbon dioxide

His primary areas of investigation include Peat, Ecology, Mire, Ombrotrophic and Bog. His Peat research integrates issues from Ecosystem, Sink and Methane. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Carbon sequestration and Greenhouse effect.

His Ombrotrophic research includes elements of Methanogen and Soil microbiology. His work on Botany expands to the thematically related Bog. His studies in Minerotrophic integrate themes in fields like Site index, Vegetation and Sphagnum.

His most cited work include:

Status and restoration of peatlands in northern Europe (176 citations)
Restored cut-away peatland as a sink for atmospheric CO2. (168 citations)
Carbon balance and radiative forcing of Finnish peatlands 1900–2100 – the impact of forestry drainage (161 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Peat, Ecology, Mire, Environmental chemistry and Soil water. He studies Bog, a branch of Peat. His Mire research incorporates themes from Eriophorum, Sphagnum, Evapotranspiration and Drainage.

His research in Environmental chemistry intersects with topics in Denitrification, Litter decomposition, Nitrate and Decomposition. His study looks at the intersection of Soil water and topics like Boreal with High nitrogen and Agriculture. The study incorporates disciplines such as Methanogen and Soil microbiology in addition to Ombrotrophic.

He most often published in these fields:

Peat (101.72%)
Ecology (37.93%)
Mire (29.31%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2020)?

Peat (101.72%)
Ecosystem (17.24%)
Minerotrophic (13.79%)

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

Jukka Laine mostly deals with Peat, Ecosystem, Minerotrophic, Vegetation and Mire. He has researched Peat in several fields, including Plant community, Ecological succession and Greenhouse gas. His Plant community study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Bog and Climate change.

His research integrates issues of Spatial ecology, Physical geography and Sphagnum in his study of Minerotrophic. His research on Vegetation concerns the broader Ecology. His Mire research incorporates themes from Global warming, Forestry, Greenhouse and Drainage.

Between 2009 and 2020, his most popular works were:

Environmental control and spatial structures in peatland vegetation (37 citations)
Environmental control and spatial structures in peatland vegetation (37 citations)
Responses of peatland vegetation to 15‐year water level drawdown as mediated by fertility level (10 citations)
