Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Carbon dioxide
  • Ecosystem
  • Hydrology

His primary areas of study are Hydrology, Peat, Total organic carbon, Dissolved organic carbon and Soil carbon. His Hydrology research includes themes of Environmental chemistry, Carbon dioxide and Ecosystem. Michael F. Billett has included themes like Drainage basin, Soil water, Greenhouse gas and STREAMS in his Peat study.

His study in Total organic carbon is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Total inorganic carbon, Particulates and Tributary. His research on Dissolved organic carbon often connects related topics like Sink. His Soil carbon study combines topics in areas such as Climate change, Carbon sink, Carbon cycle and Land use.

His most cited work include:

  • A review of the export of carbon in river water: fluxes and processes. (507 citations)
  • The relationship between dissolved organic carbon in stream water and soil organic carbon pools at different spatial scales (225 citations)
  • Linking land‐atmosphere‐stream carbon fluxes in a lowland peatland system (214 citations)

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

His main research concerns Hydrology, Peat, Soil water, Drainage basin and Dissolved organic carbon. Hydrology is closely attributed to Carbon dioxide in his work. His work deals with themes such as Environmental chemistry, Climate change, Carbon cycle and Greenhouse gas, which intersect with Peat.

His Soil water research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Vegetation and Groundwater. His Drainage basin study incorporates themes from Environmental Change Network, Moorland, Surface runoff and Land use. The various areas that Michael F. Billett examines in his Dissolved organic carbon study include Soil carbon, Total organic carbon, Soil organic matter, Sink and Terrestrial ecosystem.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hydrology (63.41%)
  • Peat (57.72%)
  • Soil water (25.20%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Peat (57.72%)
  • Hydrology (63.41%)
  • Arctic (8.94%)

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

Michael F. Billett mainly focuses on Peat, Hydrology, Arctic, Environmental chemistry and Greenhouse gas. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Sink, Carbon cycle, Dissolved organic carbon, Wetland and Biogeochemistry. Michael F. Billett combines subjects such as Carbon dioxide and Mineralogy with his study of Carbon cycle.

His Dissolved organic carbon study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Total organic carbon. The Hydrology study combines topics in areas such as Bog and Methane. His research integrates issues of Permafrost and Soil water in his study of Arctic.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Drivers of long-term variability in CO 2 net ecosystem exchange in a temperate peatland (54 citations)
  • Carbon dioxide transport across the hillslope-riparian-stream continuum in a boreal headwater catchment (41 citations)
  • Abundant pre-industrial carbon detected in Canadian Arctic headwaters – implications for the permafrost carbon feedback (19 citations)

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

  • Ecosystem
  • Carbon dioxide
  • Hydrology

His scientific interests lie mostly in Peat, Arctic, Atmospheric sciences, Ecosystem and Boreal. Michael F. Billett regularly links together related areas like Dissolved organic carbon in his Peat studies. Michael F. Billett interconnects Carbon dioxide and δ13C in the investigation of issues within Dissolved organic carbon.

His Arctic study also includes

  • Permafrost which intersects with area such as Carbon cycle, Greenhouse gas, Physical geography, Total organic carbon and Permafrost carbon cycle,
  • Soil water, which have a strong connection to Stream bed, Methanogenesis, Methane and Aquatic ecosystem. His studies deal with areas such as Current, Sink, Radiative forcing and Groundwater as well as Atmospheric sciences. His work investigates the relationship between Boreal and topics such as Forest floor that intersect with problems in Hydrology.
