Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Agronomy
  • Botany
  • Ecology

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Agronomy, Crop, Chlorophyll, Crop yield and Fertilizer. His work in Agronomy is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Soil organic matter. He combines subjects such as Biomass and Botany with his study of Crop.

His research in Chlorophyll intersects with topics in Remote sensing, Precision agriculture, Canopy and Stage. The concepts of his Precision agriculture study are interwoven with issues in Soil fertility, Vegetation, Hyperspectral imaging and Leaf area index. His study in Leaf area index is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Red edge and Solar zenith angle.

His most cited work include:

  • Integrated narrow-band vegetation indices for prediction of crop chlorophyll content for application to precision agriculture (1091 citations)
  • Ultraviolet-induced fluorescence for plant monitoring: present state and prospects (218 citations)
  • Strategies to Make Use of Plant Sensors-Based Diagnostic Information for Nitrogen Recommendations (217 citations)

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

Nicolas Tremblay mainly focuses on Agronomy, Horticulture, Crop, Nutrient and Botany. His Fertilizer, Growing season, Nitrogen fertilizer, Crop yield and Yield investigations are all subjects of Agronomy research. The concepts of his Growing season study are interwoven with issues in Precision agriculture, Chlorophyll, Loam and Grain yield.

As part of the same scientific family, Nicolas Tremblay usually focuses on Precision agriculture, concentrating on Vegetation and intersecting with Remote sensing. His studies in Crop integrate themes in fields like Biomass and Human fertilization. Nicolas Tremblay works mostly in the field of Botany, limiting it down to topics relating to Animal science and, in certain cases, N status, N fertilizer and Zea mays, as a part of the same area of interest.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (55.88%)
  • Horticulture (23.53%)
  • Crop (16.91%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2021)?

  • Agronomy (55.88%)
  • Crop (16.91%)
  • Fertilizer (12.50%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Agronomy, Crop, Fertilizer, Nitrogen fertilizer and Growing season. His research integrates issues of Soil texture, Soil water and Chlorophyll in his study of Agronomy. His Chlorophyll research is within the category of Botany.

The Crop study combines topics in areas such as Agroforestry, Irrigation, Sowing, Biomass and Human fertilization. His research in Growing season intersects with topics in Wheat grain, Soil science, Precision agriculture and Cultivar. The various areas that Nicolas Tremblay examines in his Precision agriculture study include Mean squared error, Principal component analysis and Vegetation.

Between 2009 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • New spectral indicator assessing the efficiency of crop nitrogen treatment in corn and wheat (185 citations)
  • Nitrous oxide fluxes from corn fields: on‐farm assessment of the amount and timing of nitrogen fertilizer (162 citations)
  • Sensing crop nitrogen status with fluorescence indicators. A review (145 citations)

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

  • Agronomy
  • Botany
  • Agriculture

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Crop, Crop yield, Growing season and Chlorophyll. Agronomy is often connected to Soil organic matter in his work. His Crop study combines topics in areas such as Agroforestry, Precision agriculture, Soil fertility, Soil test and Chlorophyll fluorescence.

His Crop yield research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ecozone, Spatial analysis, Cultivar and Leaf area index. His Growing season research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Biomass and Animal science. When carried out as part of a general Chlorophyll research project, his work on Chlorophyll meter is frequently linked to work in Context, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
