Kenneth Stuart Killham

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Bacteria
• Ecology
• Carbon dioxide

Kenneth Stuart Killham mostly deals with Microbiology, Rhizosphere, Ecology, Microcosm and Soil water. The Microbiology study combines topics in areas such as Pseudomonas fluorescens, Bacteria, Genetically modified organism, Escherichia coli and Vibrio harveyi. The Pseudomonas fluorescens study which covers Ecotoxicity that intersects with Bioluminescence.

His work on Niche and Nutrient as part of general Ecology study is frequently connected to Sampling design, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. He has included themes like Dry matter, Botany and Lolium perenne in his Microcosm study. His Soil water research integrates issues from Autotroph, Community structure, Environmental remediation and Nitrification.

His most cited work include:

• Bacterial diversity promotes community stability and functional resilience after perturbation (360 citations)
• Identification of heterotrophic nitrification in a sierran forest soil. (179 citations)
• Nitrification in coniferous forest soils. (159 citations)

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

Kenneth Stuart Killham spends much of his time researching Environmental chemistry, Soil water, Microbiology, Pseudomonas fluorescens and Rhizosphere. His Environmental chemistry research incorporates elements of Contamination, Soil contamination, Pollutant, Biosensor and Toxicity. His Soil water study results in a more complete grasp of Ecology.

His Microbiology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Inoculation, Bioluminescence, Incubation, Escherichia coli and Bacteria. His research in Pseudomonas fluorescens tackles topics such as Water potential which are related to areas like Genetically modified organism. His Rhizosphere research includes elements of Perennial plant, Lolium perenne, Agronomy, Botany and Microcosm.

He most often published in these fields:

• Environmental chemistry (24.32%)
• Soil water (22.97%)
• Microbiology (20.27%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2021)?

• Environmental chemistry (24.32%)
• Soil water (22.97%)
• Ecology (12.84%)

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

Kenneth Stuart Killham focuses on Environmental chemistry, Soil water, Ecology, Contamination and Escherichia coli. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Soil contamination, Leaching and Pollutant. His Soil water research includes themes of Agronomy, Shoot, Organic matter and Community structure.

As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Ecology, concentrating on Microorganism and frequently concerns with Biodegradation and Microbial population biology. His Escherichia coli research incorporates themes from Veterinary medicine and Microbiology. His studies deal with areas such as Inoculation and Bacteria as well as Microbiology.

Between 2004 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• Bacterial diversity promotes community stability and functional resilience after perturbation (360 citations)
• Application of biological indicators to assess recovery of hydrocarbon impacted soils (120 citations)
• Environmental and spatial characterisation of bacterial community composition in soil to inform sampling strategies (106 citations)

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

• Bacteria
• Ecology
• Carbon dioxide

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Soil water, Environmental chemistry, Bioremediation and Environmental remediation. The Ecology study combines topics in areas such as Dry weight and Microbial population biology. His Soil water research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Community structure and Shoot.

His study in Environmental chemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Microorganism, Biodegradation and Bioavailability. His research on Bioremediation also deals with topics like

• Soil contamination that connect with fields like Rhizosphere, Pentachlorophenol, Environmental protection, Mustard seed and Ecological health,
• Groundwater, which have a strong connection to Contamination. His Environmental remediation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Pseudomonas fluorescens, Soil quality, Pollutant, Water pollution and Sparging.
