Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Climate change

His primary areas of study are Phenology, Canopy, Remote sensing, Leaf area index and Vegetation. He has included themes like Climatology, Climate change, Carbon cycle and Forest ecology in his Phenology study. His study in Carbon cycle is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Albedo, Global warming, Canopy conductance and Biome.

His Remote sensing research incorporates themes from Deciduous and Digital camera. His Leaf area index study also includes fields such as

  • Biometeorology, which have a strong connection to Atmospheric sciences and Hydrology,
  • Eddy covariance that intertwine with fields like Growing season, Paddy field, Carbon sequestration and Peat. His Vegetation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biomass and Primary production.

His most cited work include:

  • Climate change, phenology, and phenological control of vegetation feedbacks to the climate system (954 citations)
  • Climate change, phenology, and phenological control of vegetation feedbacks to the climate system (954 citations)
  • Digital repeat photography for phenological research in forest ecosystems (327 citations)

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

Oliver Sonnentag mostly deals with Atmospheric sciences, Eddy covariance, Ecosystem, Peat and Vegetation. Oliver Sonnentag interconnects Permafrost, Boreal, Arctic and Taiga in the investigation of issues within Atmospheric sciences. When carried out as part of a general Eddy covariance research project, his work on Ecosystem respiration is frequently linked to work in Flux, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

His Ecosystem research incorporates elements of Climate change and Greenhouse gas. His Climate change research also works with subjects such as

  • Climatology which connect with Albedo,
  • Precipitation together with Snow. The Vegetation study combines topics in areas such as Temperate deciduous forest, Canopy, Leaf area index, Phenology and Biome.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Atmospheric sciences (33.15%)
  • Eddy covariance (26.09%)
  • Ecosystem (23.91%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Atmospheric sciences (33.15%)
  • Climate change (16.30%)
  • Ecosystem (23.91%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Atmospheric sciences, Climate change, Ecosystem, Boreal and Peat. His Atmospheric sciences research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Eddy covariance, Ecosystem respiration, Arctic, Vegetation and Taiga. His Vegetation study incorporates themes from Land cover, Growing season, Canopy and Radiometer.

Climate change and Phenology are commonly linked in his work. His Ecosystem research includes elements of Seasonality and Wetland. His Boreal study combines topics in areas such as Terrestrial ecosystem and Biome.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Extensive land cover change across Arctic–Boreal Northwestern North America from disturbance and climate forcing (22 citations)
  • Climate‐change refugia in boreal North America: what, where, and for how long? (21 citations)
  • Increasing contribution of peatlands to boreal evapotranspiration in a warming climate (18 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Climate change

His main research concerns Climate change, Ecosystem, Atmospheric sciences, Boreal and Biome. His Climate change study incorporates themes from Peat and Arctic. His work deals with themes such as Eddy covariance and Carbon cycle, which intersect with Atmospheric sciences.

His Eddy covariance research incorporates elements of Global warming, Tundra, Carbon dioxide and Evapotranspiration. His biological study deals with issues like Terrestrial ecosystem, which deal with fields such as Taiga, Land cover, Understory and Physical geography. His Taiga study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Vegetation and Radiometer.
