Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Competition, Species diversity, Ecosystem and Interspecific competition. Particularly relevant to Competitive exclusion is his body of work in Ecology. His work deals with themes such as Resource and Environmental economics, which intersect with Competition.

His research in Species diversity focuses on subjects like Biodiversity, which are connected to Environmental resource management, Total human ecosystem, Ecosystem services and Biological integrity. Michael A. Huston has included themes like Biomass and Productivity in his Ecosystem study. His Interspecific competition study incorporates themes from Plant ecology, Plant community and Ecological succession.

His most cited work include:

  • Biodiversity and Ecosystem Functioning: Current Knowledge and Future Challenges (3223 citations)
  • A General Hypothesis of Species Diversity (2788 citations)
  • Hidden treatments in ecological experiments: re-evaluating the ecosystem function of biodiversity. (1367 citations)

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

Ecology, Ecosystem, Biodiversity, Species diversity and Competition are his primary areas of study. His study in Species richness, Productivity, Ecology, Intermediate Disturbance Hypothesis and Interspecific competition is carried out as part of his studies in Ecology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Restoration ecology, Indicator species, Habitat, Evapotranspiration and Wetland.

His Biodiversity research includes elements of Agroforestry, Environmental resource management and Environmental protection. His study looks at the relationship between Species diversity and fields such as Coral reef, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His studies in Competition integrate themes in fields like Plant community, Ecological succession and Environmental economics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (70.18%)
  • Ecosystem (22.81%)
  • Biodiversity (19.30%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2016)?

  • Ecology (70.18%)
  • Ecological systems theory (3.51%)
  • Plant diversity (8.77%)

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

Michael A. Huston focuses on Ecology, Ecological systems theory, Plant diversity, Productivity and Species richness. In his articles, Michael A. Huston combines various disciplines, including Ecology and Context. His research integrates issues of Edaphic, Pedogenesis and Litter in his study of Plant diversity.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Biodiversity, Primary production, Temperate rainforest, Forest ecology and Vegetation in addition to Productivity. His Species richness research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Specific leaf area, Grazing, Species diversity and Ecosystem. His study in the field of Soil carbon, Soil fertility and Soil retrogression and degradation also crosses realms of Conceptual model.

Between 2006 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • The global distribution of net primary production: resolving the paradox (233 citations)
  • Living in an increasingly connected world: a framework for continental-scale environmental science (147 citations)
  • Disturbance, productivity, and species diversity: empiricism vs. logic in ecological theory (131 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Michael A. Huston mostly deals with Ecology, Criticism, Context, Ecological systems theory and Empiricism. Terrestrial ecosystem and Temporal scales are among the areas of Ecology where the researcher is concentrating his efforts. The Terrestrial ecosystem study combines topics in areas such as Biomass, Primary production, Temperate rainforest, Forest ecology and Vegetation.

His Vegetation research includes themes of Productivity and Biodiversity. As part of his studies on Temporal scales, Michael A. Huston often connects relevant subjects like Environmental change. His Criticism research overlaps with other disciplines such as Intermediate Disturbance Hypothesis and Productivity.
