Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Ecosystem

Peter J. Edwards mostly deals with Ecology, Biodiversity, Species richness, Habitat and Floodplain. His study involves Abundance, Introduced species, Range, Ecosystem and Spatial ecology, a branch of Ecology. In Biodiversity, Peter J. Edwards works on issues like Ecosystem services, which are connected to Coral reef, Seagrass, Nature reserve, Wildlife conservation and Ecological economics.

His study in Species richness is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Propagule pressure, Generalist and specialist species and Species diversity. His Habitat research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Ecology and Fauna. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including River ecosystem, Salicaceae and Riparian zone.

His most cited work include:

  • Indicators for biodiversity in agricultural landscapes: a pan‐European study (481 citations)
  • The life history of Salicaceae living in the active zone of floodplains (397 citations)
  • Riparian vegetation and island formation along the gravel‐bed Fiume Tagliamento, Italy (342 citations)

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

Ecology, Agronomy, Species richness, Habitat and Biodiversity are his primary areas of study. His Ecology study focuses mostly on Introduced species, Invasive species, Ecosystem, Range and Species diversity. Peter J. Edwards has included themes like Competition and Disturbance in his Introduced species study.

His Agronomy research integrates issues from Nutrient, Vegetation and Herbivore. His studies deal with areas such as Plant community and Abundance as well as Species richness. His work in Habitat is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Floodplain.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (58.29%)
  • Agronomy (19.91%)
  • Species richness (17.06%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Ecology (58.29%)
  • Ecosystem services (5.21%)
  • Ecosystem (14.69%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Ecosystem services, Ecosystem, Agronomy and Urban heat island. He performs multidisciplinary study in the fields of Ecology and Lodoicea maldivica via his papers. His studies in Ecosystem services integrate themes in fields like Environmental resource management and Environmental planning.

The concepts of his Ecosystem study are interwoven with issues in Fecundity, Inflorescence and Habitat destruction. His Urban heat island research also works with subjects such as

  • Flooding together with Humid tropics, Water resource management and Urban warming,
  • Physical geography, which have a strong connection to Vegetation type, Microclimate and Tree canopy. The Species richness study combines topics in areas such as Plant community, Niche, Melinis minutiflora and Abundance.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Food system resilience: Defining the concept (163 citations)
  • The economic benefits and costs of trees in urban forest stewardship: A systematic review (50 citations)
  • Quantifying street tree regulating ecosystem services using Google Street View (48 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Ecosystem

Peter J. Edwards mainly focuses on Ecology, Environmental change, Invasive species, Natural resource economics and Range. His Ecology research focuses on Woody plant, Species diversity, Grassland, Species richness and Shrub. His Environmental change study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Plant physiology and Life history theory.

While the research belongs to areas of Invasive species, Peter J. Edwards spends his time largely on the problem of Forb, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Herbaceous plant. His Herbaceous plant research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Biomass, Nutrient and Vegetation. His research integrates issues of Genetic diversity, Altitude, Adaptation, Local adaptation and Phenotypic plasticity in his study of Range.
