Michael I. Bird mainly investigates Soil carbon, Environmental chemistry, Ecology, Carbon cycle and Soil water.
His research in Soil carbon intersects with topics in Soil organic matter, Agronomy, Carbon sink and Shrub.
He combines subjects such as Charcoal, Pyrolysis, Carbon storage and Isotopes of carbon with his study of Environmental chemistry.
His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Glacial period and Biological dispersal.
His work deals with themes such as Total organic carbon, Atmospheric sciences and Vegetation, which intersect with Carbon cycle.
His research investigates the connection with Soil water and areas like Hydrology which intersect with concerns in Dry season, Allometry and Tropics.
His most cited work include:
- The knowns, known unknowns and unknowns of sequestration of soil organic carbon (710 citations)
- Palaeoenvironments of insular Southeast Asia during the Last Glacial Period: a savanna corridor in Sundaland? (383 citations)
- Woody cover and hominin environments in the past 6 million years (371 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Environmental chemistry, Carbon, Soil water and Soil carbon.
His Environmental chemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Organic matter, Isotopes of carbon, Biochar and Charcoal.
His studies deal with areas such as Pyrolysis and Dissolved organic carbon as well as Carbon.
In his study, Vegetation is strongly linked to Hydrology, which falls under the umbrella field of Soil water.
His research integrates issues of Biomass, Glacial period and Physical geography in his study of Vegetation.
