Merritt R. Turetsky mainly focuses on Permafrost, Peat, Climate change, Ecology and Soil water.
He combines subjects such as Soil science, Organic matter, Wetland and Permafrost carbon cycle with his study of Permafrost.
His Peat research incorporates elements of Boreal and Atmospheric sciences.
His Climate change research includes elements of Climatology, Physical geography and Greenhouse gas.
His Soil water research incorporates themes from Hydrology and Atmosphere.
Merritt R. Turetsky frequently studies issues relating to Ecosystem and Hydrology.
His most cited work include:
- Climate change and the permafrost carbon feedback (1300 citations)
- Recent changes in the fire regime across the North American boreal region—Spatial and temporal patterns of burning across Canada and Alaska (515 citations)
- Impacts of climate change on fire activity and fire management in the circumboreal forest (426 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Merritt R. Turetsky mainly investigates Peat, Permafrost, Boreal, Ecology and Ecosystem.
His Peat research integrates issues from Hydrology, Wetland, Climate change and Environmental chemistry.
He has researched Permafrost in several fields, including Soil carbon, Soil water, Permafrost carbon cycle and Atmospheric sciences.
His Atmospheric sciences study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Carbon cycle and Greenhouse gas.
Merritt R. Turetsky usually deals with Boreal and limits it to topics linked to Taiga and Fire regime and Cryosphere.
His research investigates the connection between Ecosystem and topics such as Black spruce that intersect with issues in Vegetation.
He most often published in these fields:
- Peat (44.64%)
- Permafrost (37.95%)
- Boreal (33.93%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?
- Permafrost (37.95%)
- Boreal (33.93%)
- Taiga (16.96%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of study are Permafrost, Boreal, Taiga, Peat and Atmospheric sciences.
His Permafrost study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Environmental chemistry, Earth science, Vegetation and Wetland.
Merritt R. Turetsky has included themes like Chronosequence, Lichen, Cladonia, Global warming and Physical geography in his Boreal study.
His Taiga research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Edaphic and Climate change.
Many of his studies on Peat apply to Ecosystem as well.
He interconnects Radiative forcing and Greenhouse gas in the investigation of issues within Atmospheric sciences.
Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Carbon release through abrupt permafrost thaw (87 citations)
- Carbon release through abrupt permafrost thaw (87 citations)
- Increasing wildfires threaten historic carbon sink of boreal forest soils (85 citations)
