Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Botany

Lorena Gómez-Aparicio mainly focuses on Ecology, Mediterranean climate, Competition, Ecosystem and Seedling. Lorena Gómez-Aparicio integrates several fields in her works, including Ecology and Facilitation. Her Mediterranean climate research incorporates elements of Canopy, Forest dynamics and Herbivore.

Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Shrub and Reforestation. Her studies deal with areas such as Climate change and Global change as well as Competition. Lorena Gómez-Aparicio studied Ecosystem and Agronomy that intersect with Secondary succession.

Her most cited work include:

  • APPLYING PLANT FACILITATION TO FOREST RESTORATION: A META-ANALYSIS OF THE USE OF SHRUBS AS NURSE PLANTS (628 citations)
  • The role of plant interactions in the restoration of degraded ecosystems: a meta‐analysis across life‐forms and ecosystems (280 citations)
  • Benefits of Using Shrubs as Nurse Plants for Reforestation in Mediterranean Mountains: A 4‐Year Study (212 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Ecology, Mediterranean climate, Quercus suber, Seedling and Ecosystem. Her study in Plant community, Ecological succession, Competition, Abundance and Spatial ecology falls within the category of Ecology. Her Mediterranean climate study combines topics in areas such as Canopy, Climate change, Herbivore and Evergreen.

The concepts of her Quercus suber study are interwoven with issues in Range, Phytophthora cinnamomi, Resistance and Soil respiration. Her Seedling research incorporates elements of Vegetation and Abiotic component. She combines subjects such as Biomass, Biodiversity, Species richness and Mediterranean Basin with her study of Ecosystem.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (83.82%)
  • Mediterranean climate (47.06%)
  • Quercus suber (26.47%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Ecology (83.82%)
  • Quercus suber (26.47%)
  • Mediterranean climate (47.06%)

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

Lorena Gómez-Aparicio spends much of her time researching Ecology, Quercus suber, Mediterranean climate, Ecosystem and Phytophthora cinnamomi. While working in this field, Lorena Gómez-Aparicio studies both Ecology and Trait. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Range, Agronomy, Resistance and Trophic level, Bacterivore.

While the research belongs to areas of Mediterranean climate, Lorena Gómez-Aparicio spends her time largely on the problem of Climate change, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Bulk density and Soil water. Biomass, Crop yield, Species richness and Soil biology is closely connected to Biodiversity in her research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Ecosystem. The Phytophthora cinnamomi study combines topics in areas such as Quercus canariensis and Seedling.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Functional traits and phenotypic plasticity modulate species coexistence across contrasting climatic conditions (28 citations)
  • A conceptual map of invasion biology: Integrating hypotheses into a consensus network (26 citations)
  • Drought modulates interactions between arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal diversity and barley genotype diversity. (12 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Botany

Her primary areas of investigation include Quercus suber, Biodiversity, Ecology, Agronomy and Dominance. Her studies deal with areas such as Soil water, Bulk density, Phytophthora cinnamomi and Climate change as well as Quercus suber. Lorena Gómez-Aparicio interconnects Drought tolerance, Species richness, Crop yield and Ecosystem in the investigation of issues within Biodiversity.

Lorena Gómez-Aparicio is studying Ecology, which is a component of Ecology. Her studies in Agronomy integrate themes in fields like Soil biology and Mediterranean climate. Lorena Gómez-Aparicio has included themes like Biotic component, Abundance, Species distribution and Range in her Dominance study.
