Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Arctic, Tundra, Climate change and Biome. Many of her studies involve connections with topics such as Agronomy and Ecology. In the subject of general Arctic, her work in Eriophorum vaginatum is often linked to Social system, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

Her Climate change research incorporates elements of Permafrost, Biocomplexity, Climatology and Environmental resource management. Her studies in Biome integrate themes in fields like Global warming and Biodiversity. Her Biodiversity research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Land use, land-use change and forestry, Freshwater ecosystem and Global change.

Her most cited work include:

  • Global biodiversity scenarios for the year 2100. (6358 citations)
  • Evidence and implications of recent climate change in northern Alaska and other arctic regions. (1128 citations)
  • Plant community responses to experimental warming across the tundra biome (989 citations)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Arctic, Ecology, Tundra, Physical geography and Plant community. Marilyn D. Walker combines subjects such as Permafrost, Habitat and Growing season with her study of Arctic. Her study in Ecosystem, Vegetation, Species richness, Climate change and Biomass is carried out as part of her studies in Ecology.

Her Climate change research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Environmental resource management and Yield. Her Tundra study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Global warming, Climatology, Snow and Biome. In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Biome, Global change, Freshwater ecosystem and Land use, land-use change and forestry is strongly linked to Biodiversity.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Arctic (56.60%)
  • Ecology (54.72%)
  • Tundra (50.94%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2012-2017)?

  • Tundra (50.94%)
  • Arctic (56.60%)
  • Ecology (54.72%)

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

Marilyn D. Walker mostly deals with Tundra, Arctic, Ecology, Arctic vegetation and Global warming. Ecosystem covers she research in Tundra. Her Arctic research focuses on Vegetation and how it relates to Cartography, Snow fence and Snow.

Her Ecology research focuses on Species richness in particular. Her Arctic vegetation research also works with subjects such as

  • Physical geography and related Habitat, Circumpolar star, Dryas octopetala and Biome,
  • Species diversity most often made with reference to Lichen. Her Biodiversity research integrates issues from Climatology and Climate change.

Between 2012 and 2017, her most popular works were:

  • Experiment, monitoring, and gradient methods used to infer climate change effects on plant communities yield consistent patterns (141 citations)
  • Summer temperature increase has distinct effects on the ectomycorrhizal fungal communities of moist tussock and dry tundra in Arctic Alaska (60 citations)
  • Long-term warming alters richness and composition of taxonomic and functional groups of arctic fungi (50 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Marilyn D. Walker mainly focuses on Global warming, Tundra, Arctic, Species richness and Ecology. The Global warming study combines topics in areas such as Biodiversity, Ecosystem and Tussock. Her research in Biodiversity intersects with topics in Plant community, Climatology and Climate change.

Her Tussock research includes themes of Biomass, Arctic vegetation and Arctic ecology. Her Operational taxonomic unit study spans across into fields like Decomposer, Botany and Terrestrial ecosystem.
