Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecosystem
  • Carbon dioxide
  • Agriculture

Her primary areas of investigation include Total organic carbon, Drainage basin, Peat, Nutrient and Ecosystem. Her Total organic carbon research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sediment, Soil water, Aquatic ecosystem and Dissolved organic carbon. Her Aquatic ecosystem research includes themes of Sink and Drainage.

Pirkko Kortelainen studied Sink and Freshwater ecosystem that intersect with Carbon cycle. Her research in Nutrient intersects with topics in Water quality, Boreal and Organic matter. Her Abundance research extends to Ecosystem, which is thematically connected.

Her most cited work include:

  • Plumbing the Global Carbon Cycle: Integrating Inland Waters into the Terrestrial Carbon Budget (2323 citations)
  • Lakes and reservoirs as regulators of carbon cycling and climate (1499 citations)
  • The global abundance and size distribution of lakes, ponds, and impoundments (1131 citations)

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

Pirkko Kortelainen mainly focuses on Total organic carbon, Peat, Dissolved organic carbon, Environmental chemistry and Boreal. Her Total organic carbon study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Drainage basin, Lessivage, Surface runoff and Eutrophication. Her Peat study incorporates themes from Nutrient, Land use, Total inorganic carbon, Carbon dioxide and Snowmelt.

In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Nutrient, Sink is strongly linked to Aquatic ecosystem. Her research in Land use focuses on subjects like Greenhouse gas, which are connected to Carbon cycle. Pirkko Kortelainen has included themes like Mineralization, Ecosystem, Hydrology and Temperate climate in her Dissolved organic carbon study.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Total organic carbon (28.18%)
  • Peat (24.55%)
  • Dissolved organic carbon (22.73%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Ecosystem (14.55%)
  • Boreal (21.82%)
  • Dissolved organic carbon (22.73%)

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

Pirkko Kortelainen mainly focuses on Ecosystem, Boreal, Dissolved organic carbon, Environmental chemistry and Climate change. Her Ecosystem research includes elements of Atmospheric change and Anthropocene. Her studies in Boreal integrate themes in fields like Methane emissions, Nutrient, Global warming, Surface runoff and Nitrate.

Her study in Surface runoff is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Total organic carbon, Seasonality, Forestry, Cycling and Peat. Her work deals with themes such as Forest management, Drainage basin and Taiga, which intersect with Total organic carbon. Her Environmental chemistry study combines topics in areas such as Water quality and Weathering.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Global change-driven effects on dissolved organic matter composition : Implications for food webs of northern lakes (89 citations)
  • Widespread Increases in Iron Concentration in European and North American Freshwaters (38 citations)
  • Novel 'chemical cocktails' in inland waters are a consequence of the freshwater salinization syndrome. (25 citations)

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

  • Ecosystem
  • Agriculture
  • Carbon dioxide

Pirkko Kortelainen spends much of her time researching Ecosystem, Water quality, Dissolved organic carbon, Climate change and Environmental chemistry. She interconnects Soil water, Total organic carbon and Groundwater in the investigation of issues within Ecosystem. Pirkko Kortelainen combines subjects such as Surface water, Land use, Biomass, Ecosystem services and Environmental resource management with her study of Water quality.

Her research in Dissolved organic carbon intersects with topics in Global warming, Global change, Acid deposition, Atmospheric change and Taiga. Her Climate change research incorporates elements of Biogeochemical cycle and Biogeochemistry. Pirkko Kortelainen has included themes like Weathering, Nitrate, Pollution and Soil salinity in her Environmental chemistry study.
