Katherine A. McCulloh mainly investigates Xylem, Botany, Hydraulic conductivity, Electrical conduit and Water transport. Her research in Xylem intersects with topics in Woody plant, Shoot and Transpiration. Her studies deal with areas such as Tree species and Parenchyma as well as Woody plant.
Many of her studies on Transpiration apply to Ecology as well. Her Twig and Tracheid study in the realm of Botany connects with subjects such as Populus angustifolia and Air permeability specific surface. Katherine A. McCulloh applies her multidisciplinary studies on Water transport and Hydraulics in her research.
Her primary areas of study are Xylem, Botany, Ecology, Transpiration and Hydraulic conductivity. While the research belongs to areas of Xylem, she spends her time largely on the problem of Hydraulic conductance, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Shrub. In her articles, Katherine A. McCulloh combines various disciplines, including Botany and Water transport.
In her work, Atmospheric sciences is strongly intertwined with Water use, which is a subfield of Transpiration. Her Hydraulic conductivity study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Temperate climate. The concepts of her Turgor pressure study are interwoven with issues in Leaf water, Calycanthus and Osmotic pressure.
Her primary scientific interests are in Photosynthesis, Xylem, Botany, Ecosystem and Agronomy. Katherine A. McCulloh combines subjects such as Eucalyptus, Tracheid, Boreal and Adaptation with her study of Photosynthesis. Among her research on Xylem, you can see a combination of other fields of science like Hydraulic resistance, Base, Electrical conduit, Limiting and Conductance.
Her work on Turgor pressure and Osmotic pressure as part of general Botany study is frequently linked to Gametophyte, Water transport and X-Ray Microcomputed Tomography, bridging the gap between disciplines. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Deserts and xeric shrublands, Climate change, Regeneration and Allometry. Her Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Basal area, Acclimatization, Photosynthetic acclimation, Respiration and Taiga.
Katherine A. McCulloh spends much of her time researching Conductance, Xylem, Trade offs, Hydraulic conductance and Stem-and-leaf display. Her Conductance research incorporates Horticulture and Vapour Pressure Deficit.
