Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Photosynthesis
  • Biochemistry

Keith A. Mott mostly deals with Botany, Photosynthesis, Stomatal conductance, Transpiration and Guard cell. Much of his study explores Botany relationship to Carbon dioxide. The concepts of his Photosynthesis study are interwoven with issues in Biophysics, Thermodynamics and Darkness.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Stomatal conductance, Ecology are connected with Plant science and other disciplines. His research in Transpiration focuses on subjects like Humidity, which are connected to Horticulture, Photon flux density, Relative humidity and Mechanics. Guard cell and Xanthium strumarium are frequently intertwined in his study.

His most cited work include:

  • Stomatal responses to humidity in air and helox (412 citations)
  • A hydromechanical and biochemical model of stomatal conductance (252 citations)
  • Do Stomata Respond to CO2 Concentrations Other than Intercellular (240 citations)

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

His main research concerns Botany, Stomatal conductance, Photosynthesis, Guard cell and Biophysics. His Botany research focuses on Humidity and how it relates to Epidermis. His work carried out in the field of Stomatal conductance brings together such families of science as Ecology and Atmospheric sciences.

His Photosynthesis research integrates issues from Carbon dioxide and Darkness. His Guard cell study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Analytical chemistry, Osmotic pressure, Intracellular and Volume. His Biophysics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Membrane, Cuticle, Aquaporin and Elastic modulus.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (52.17%)
  • Stomatal conductance (40.58%)
  • Photosynthesis (39.13%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2019)?

  • Botany (52.17%)
  • Guard cell (30.43%)
  • Stomatal conductance (40.58%)

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

Keith A. Mott spends much of his time researching Botany, Guard cell, Stomatal conductance, Humidity and Biophysics. The Transpiration, Tradescantia and Darkness research Keith A. Mott does as part of his general Botany study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Phase and Oenothera caespitosa, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His Transpiration study deals with Analytical chemistry intersecting with Heat transfer and Diffusion.

His Guard cell research includes themes of Xylem, Intracellular and Plant physiology. His Stomatal conductance research spans across into fields like Conductance and Context. His studies deal with areas such as Co2 concentration, Carbon dioxide, Ambient humidity and Epidermis as well as Biophysics.

Between 2007 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • The role of the mesophyll in stomatal responses to light and CO2. (117 citations)
  • Modelling stomatal conductance in response to environmental factors (99 citations)
  • A New, Vapour-phase Mechanism for Stomatal Responses to Humidity and Temperature (99 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Botany
  • Biochemistry
  • Enzyme

His scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Guard cell, Red light, Vicia faba and Tradescantia. Botany is integrated with Water transport and Empirical modelling in his study. His Guard cell study combines topics in areas such as Humidity, Mechanics, Relative humidity and Transpiration.

His studies in Vicia faba integrate themes in fields like Sativum and Pisum.
