Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Botany

Philip Ineson mainly investigates Botany, Stable-isotope probing, Microorganism, Symbiosis and Mycelium. His work carried out in the field of Botany brings together such families of science as Rhizosphere and Animal science. Philip Ineson interconnects Microbial population biology, Fatty acid, Isotope analysis, Environmental chemistry and Assimilation in the investigation of issues within Rhizosphere.

His research investigates the link between Stable-isotope probing and topics such as Biochemistry that cross with problems in Evolutionary biology, Metabolomics, Microbial ecology and Methylophilaceae. His Mycelium research incorporates themes from Mycorrhiza, Carbon cycle and Hypha. His study in Respiration is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Carbon dioxide and Plant litter.

His most cited work include:

  • Stable-isotope probing as a tool in microbial ecology (976 citations)
  • Soil function in a changing world: the role of invertebrate ecosystem engineers (889 citations)
  • Atmospheric Nitrogen Deposition in World Biodiversity Hotspots: the Need for a Greater Global Perspective in Assessing N Deposition Impacts (415 citations)

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

Philip Ineson mostly deals with Environmental chemistry, Botany, Soil water, Agronomy and Ecology. Philip Ineson combines subjects such as Nitrous oxide, Gleysol, Anaerobic oxidation of methane, Carbon dioxide and Soil horizon with his study of Environmental chemistry. His studies deal with areas such as Litter, Animal science, Fatty acid and Nutrient, Plant litter as well as Botany.

His work investigates the relationship between Plant litter and topics such as Litter that intersect with problems in Glomeris marginata. His Soil water research includes elements of Organic matter, Total organic carbon, Moorland and Leachate. His Agronomy research also works with subjects such as

  • Enchytraeidae together with Peat,
  • Ammonium that connect with fields like Nitrification and Leaching.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (28.57%)
  • Botany (28.57%)
  • Soil water (27.47%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2020)?

  • Botany (28.57%)
  • Agronomy (17.58%)
  • Soil water (27.47%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Agronomy, Soil water, Greenhouse gas and Soil organic matter. His Botany research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Isotopes of carbon, Fatty acid, Sphagnum, Symbiosis and Stable-isotope probing. His Symbiosis study combines topics in areas such as Burkholderiales and Microorganism.

His Agronomy research integrates issues from Soil biology, Soil mesofauna, Ammonium, Phosphorus and Biochar. His research integrates issues of Plant litter, Organic matter, Alnus glutinosa, Litter and Water content in his study of Soil water. His work deals with themes such as Glomeris marginata and Nutrient, which intersect with Litter.

Between 2005 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Atmospheric Nitrogen Deposition in World Biodiversity Hotspots: the Need for a Greater Global Perspective in Assessing N Deposition Impacts (415 citations)
  • Active root-inhabiting microbes identified by rapid incorporation of plant-derived carbon into RNA (168 citations)
  • Respiration of the external mycelium in the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis shows strong dependence on recent photosynthates and acclimation to temperature (149 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Botany

Philip Ineson focuses on Botany, Symbiosis, Biodiversity hotspot, Stable-isotope probing and Phylotype. Philip Ineson does research in Botany, focusing on Cladosporium cladosporioides specifically. The study incorporates disciplines such as Acclimatization, Hypha and Respiration in addition to Symbiosis.

His studies in Biodiversity hotspot integrate themes in fields like Species richness, Terrestrial ecosystem, Ecosystem and Vegetation. Philip Ineson has researched Terrestrial ecosystem in several fields, including Biodiversity and Deposition. His Stable-isotope probing study deals with the bigger picture of Microorganism.
