Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Ecosystem

Manuel R. Guariguata mostly deals with Forest management, Agroforestry, Ecology, Logging and Forest ecology. His studies in Forest management integrate themes in fields like Forest restoration, Regeneration and Environmental resource management. His research investigates the connection between Agroforestry and topics such as Deforestation that intersect with problems in Land use, Qualitative comparative analysis, Forest cover and Tropics.

His Forest ecology study combines topics in areas such as Global warming, Climate change, Adaptive capacity and Environmental planning. His work focuses on many connections between Vegetation and other disciplines, such as Species diversity, that overlap with his field of interest in Species richness. His research in Secondary forest intersects with topics in Secondary succession and Clearcutting.

His most cited work include:

  • Neotropical secondary forest succession : changes in structural and functional characteristics (935 citations)
  • Statistical methods for estimating species richness of woody regeneration in primary and secondary rain forests of northeastern Costa Rica (473 citations)
  • Community managed forests and forest protected areas: An assessment of their conservation effectiveness across the tropics (446 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Forest management, Agroforestry, Environmental resource management, Ecology and Forestry. The study incorporates disciplines such as Forest ecology, Logging and Sustainability in addition to Forest management. His Agroforestry study incorporates themes from Agriculture, Deforestation, Biodiversity and Forest restoration.

His research integrates issues of Intact forest landscape, Certified wood, Land use and Ecosystem services in his study of Environmental resource management. As a part of the same scientific study, Manuel R. Guariguata usually deals with the Forestry, concentrating on Canopy and frequently concerns with Woody plant. The various areas that Manuel R. Guariguata examines in his Secondary forest study include Secondary succession, Ecological succession and Simarouba amara.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Forest management (35.00%)
  • Agroforestry (30.83%)
  • Environmental resource management (24.17%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Agroforestry (30.83%)
  • Environmental planning (12.50%)
  • Amazon rainforest (5.83%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Agroforestry, Environmental planning, Amazon rainforest, Forest restoration and Sustainability. His Agroforestry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biodiversity, Deforestation, Agricultural land and Regeneration. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Forestry, Logging and Spatial distribution.

Manuel R. Guariguata applies his multidisciplinary studies on Forest restoration and Context in his research. Ecology covers he research in Bertholletia. His work deals with themes such as Intact forest landscape and Impact evaluation, which intersect with Forest management.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Impacts of forests and forestation on hydrological services in the Andes: A systematic review (33 citations)
  • Evaluation of the impacts of Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification of natural forest management in the tropics: a rigorous approach to assessment of a complex conservation intervention (33 citations)
  • Revisiting the ‘cornerstone of Amazonian conservation’: a socioecological assessment of Brazil nut exploitation (31 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Ecosystem

Manuel R. Guariguata mostly deals with Forest restoration, Agroforestry, Stewardship, Forest management and Environmental resource management. Within one scientific family, Manuel R. Guariguata focuses on topics pertaining to Restoration ecology under Forest restoration, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Land use, Environmental planning and Land management. The Agroforestry study combines topics in areas such as Deforestation, Sustainability and Amazon rainforest.

His Stewardship study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Forest ecology and Impact evaluation. His research investigates the connection between Forest ecology and topics such as Ecosystem services that intersect with issues in Water use, Surface runoff and Afforestation. His work on Certified wood as part of general Forest management study is frequently linked to Intervention, bridging the gap between disciplines.
