What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Erosion
- Hydrology
His primary areas of investigation include Hydrology, Sediment, Bed load, Sediment transport and Structural basin.
His STREAMS, Drainage basin and Tributary study, which is part of a larger body of work in Hydrology, is frequently linked to Hydraulics and Range, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His study in Tributary is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Range, Historical maps, River restoration and Streamflow.
His Sediment study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Aggradation, Flood myth, Flume, Erosion and Grain size.
He works mostly in the field of Bed load, limiting it down to topics relating to Shear stress and, in certain cases, Shields parameter.
His Structural basin study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Channel.
His most cited work include:
- Channel adjustments and vegetation cover dynamics in a large gravel bed river over the last 200 years (120 citations)
- Magnitude-frequency analysis of bed load data in an Alpine boulder bed stream (120 citations)
- Effective discharge for sediment transport in a mountain river: Computational approaches and geomorphic effectiveness (118 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Hydrology, Sediment, Bed load, Sediment transport and Channel.
His Hydrology research incorporates elements of Structural basin and Fluvial.
The Sediment study combines topics in areas such as Vegetation, Grain size and Flow, Flume.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Bedform and Shear stress in addition to Bed load.
The Sediment transport study which covers Snowmelt that intersects with Glacial period.
In his research on the topic of Channel, Elevation is strongly related with Riparian zone.
He most often published in these fields:
- Hydrology (68.37%)
- Sediment (51.02%)
- Bed load (29.59%)

- Sediment (51.02%)
- Hydrology (68.37%)
- Fluvial (20.41%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Luca Mao spends much of his time researching Sediment, Hydrology, Fluvial, Bed load and Sediment transport.
His work deals with themes such as Channel, Soil science, Flow and Erosion, which intersect with Sediment.
His work on Flood myth as part of general Hydrology study is frequently linked to Structure function, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.
Luca Mao combines subjects such as Drainage basin, Ecology and River restoration with his study of Fluvial.
His Bed load research includes elements of Glacier and STREAMS.
Within one scientific family, Luca Mao focuses on topics pertaining to Physical geography under Structural basin, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Fluvial system, Natural, River network and Range.
Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Controls Over Particle Motion and Resting Times of Coarse Bed Load Transport in a Glacier‐Fed Mountain Stream (5 citations)
- Controls Over Particle Motion and Resting Times of Coarse Bed Load Transport in a Glacier‐Fed Mountain Stream (5 citations)
- Response of A Gravel ‐ Bed River To Dam Closure: Insights From Sediment Transport Processes And Channel Morphodynamics (5 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Erosion
- Drainage basin
Sediment transport, Hydrology, Beach morphodynamics, Channel and STREAMS are his primary areas of study.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Elevation and Riparian zone.
His studies in Channel integrate themes in fields like Fluvial, River ecosystem, Drainage basin, Sediment and Physical geography.
His Fluvial research incorporates themes from Digital elevation model and Bed material load.
His STREAMS research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Soil science, Bed load and Grain size.
As part of one scientific family, Luca Mao deals mainly with the area of Soil science, narrowing it down to issues related to the Graded bedding, and often Flume.
