  • Heavy metal accumulation and phytostabilisation potential of tree fine roots in a contaminated soil (133 citations)

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

Madeleine S. Günthardt-Goerg mainly investigates Botany, Agronomy, Horticulture, Soil water and Stomatal conductance. Her study in Plant physiology, Growing season, Quercus robur, Betulaceae and Photosynthesis is done as part of Botany. Her Betulaceae research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Betula pendula and Guard cell.

Her study in Agronomy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Soil type, Soil pH, Calcareous and Ecosystem. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Acclimatization, Nutrient, Deciduous and Respiration. Her study in the fields of Lysimeter and Phytoremediation under the domain of Soil water overlaps with other disciplines such as Cadmium.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (62.03%)
  • Agronomy (27.85%)
  • Horticulture (24.05%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2011-2019)?

  • Botany (62.03%)
  • Agronomy (27.85%)
  • Quercus robur (12.66%)

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

Madeleine S. Günthardt-Goerg focuses on Botany, Agronomy, Quercus robur, Soil water and Biomass. Madeleine S. Günthardt-Goerg combines subjects such as Soil classification, Soil type and Horticulture with her study of Botany. Her Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Calcareous, Soil pH and Ecosystem.

Madeleine S. Günthardt-Goerg has included themes like Photosynthesis, Quercus petraea and Growing season in her Quercus robur study. In her research on the topic of Soil water, Soil texture is strongly related with Quercus pubescens. Agroforestry, Woody plant and Plant ecology is closely connected to Climate change in her research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Biomass.

Between 2011 and 2019, her most popular works were:

  • Water regime and growth of young oak stands subjected to air-warming and drought on two different forest soils in a model ecosystem experiment (54 citations)
  • Seasonal photosynthetic responses of European oaks to drought and elevated daytime temperature (46 citations)
  • A Phenological Timetable of Oak Growth under Experimental Drought and Air Warming (42 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem

Her primary areas of investigation include Soil water, Agronomy, Botany, Quercus robur and Lysimeter. Her studies in Soil water integrate themes in fields like Biomass, Betula pendula, Horticulture and Salix viminalis. Her work on Turgor pressure as part of general Horticulture study is frequently linked to Noon, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Her Quercus robur research incorporates elements of Willow, Climate change, Bioenergy and Growing season. Her work carried out in the field of Growing season brings together such families of science as Photosynthesis, Chlorophyll, Chlorophyll fluorescence, Stomatal conductance and Drought tolerance. The concepts of her Lysimeter study are interwoven with issues in Soil classification and Water-use efficiency.
