Mike Starr

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Ecology
• Ecosystem
• Agriculture

Mike Starr mainly investigates Soil water, Environmental chemistry, Soil horizon, Ecology and Taiga. His work on Acid deposition as part of general Soil water research is often related to Current, thus linking different fields of science. The concepts of his Environmental chemistry study are interwoven with issues in Throughfall, Leaching, Bulk density and Hydrology.

His work carried out in the field of Hydrology brings together such families of science as Total organic carbon and Hydrometeorology. His research investigates the connection between Soil horizon and topics such as Podzol that intersect with problems in Soil solution, Solution chemistry and Agroforestry. His Taiga research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Scots pine, Boreal and Botany.

His most cited work include:

• Decomposition and nutrient release from logging residues after clear-cutting of mixed boreal forest (193 citations)
• Advances in understanding the podzolization process resulting from a multidisciplinary study of three coniferous forest soils in the Nordic Countries (140 citations)
• Carbon and nitrogen pools in an old-growth, Norway spruce mixed forest in eastern Finland and changes associated with clear-cutting (123 citations)

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

Mike Starr spends much of his time researching Hydrology, Soil water, Environmental chemistry, Agronomy and Taiga. The Hydrology study combines topics in areas such as Climate change and Deposition. His Soil water study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Soil science.

His research in Environmental chemistry intersects with topics in Throughfall and Organic matter. His work deals with themes such as Agroforestry, Nutrient and Soil fertility, which intersect with Agronomy. His Taiga study also includes

• Ecology and Old-growth forest most often made with reference to Scots pine,
• Picea abies which is related to area like Basal area.

He most often published in these fields:

• Hydrology (26.39%)
• Soil water (22.92%)
• Environmental chemistry (21.53%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

• Agronomy (15.97%)
• Hydrology (26.39%)
• Agroforestry (12.50%)

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

His main research concerns Agronomy, Hydrology, Agroforestry, Soil carbon and Soil water. Mike Starr combines subjects such as Forest floor, Soil fertility and Water content with his study of Agronomy. His Hydrology research incorporates themes from Ecotoxicology, Climate change and Dissolved organic carbon.

The various areas that Mike Starr examines in his Agroforestry study include Carbon sequestration, Productivity and Biomass. Mike Starr specializes in Soil water, namely Throughfall. His research integrates issues of Environmental chemistry, Aquatic ecosystem, Deposition, Freshwater ecosystem and Terrestrial ecosystem in his study of Throughfall.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Carbon, and Suspended Solids Loads from Forest Clear-Cutting and Site Preparation: Long-Term Paired Catchment Studies from Eastern Finland (51 citations)
• Iron concentrations are increasing in surface waters from forested headwater catchments in Eastern Finland (46 citations)
• Allometric equations for estimating aboveground biomass of Coffea arabica L. grown in the Rift Valley escarpment of Ethiopia (26 citations)

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

• Ecology
• Ecosystem
• Agriculture

Mike Starr focuses on Agroforestry, Hydrology, Carbon sequestration, Agronomy and Soil carbon. His Agroforestry research includes elements of Biomass, Fruit tree and Coffea arabica. His Hydrology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Total organic carbon and Dissolved organic carbon.

Mike Starr has included themes like Biomass, Soil classification, Woody plant, Forestry and Available water capacity in his Carbon sequestration study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Soil science, Felling, Clearcutting, Forest floor and Taiga. His Soil carbon study combines topics in areas such as Acacia, Logging, Woodland and Land degradation.
