Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Climate change
  • Ecosystem

Rachid Cheddadi focuses on Ecology, Glacial period, Pollen, Holocene and Vegetation. His work on Genetic diversity expands to the thematically related Ecology. As a member of one scientific family, Rachid Cheddadi mostly works in the field of Glacial period, focusing on Ice core and, on occasion, Continental margin and Grassland.

His work carried out in the field of Pollen brings together such families of science as Paleontology, Climatology and Eemian. His study looks at the relationship between Holocene and fields such as Physical geography, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. The various areas that Rachid Cheddadi examines in his Vegetation study include Tundra and Biome.

His most cited work include:

  • Glacial Refugia: Hotspots But Not Melting Pots of Genetic Diversity (1387 citations)
  • Reconstructing biomes from palaeoecological data: a general method and its application to European pollen data at 0 and 6 ka (528 citations)
  • Identification of refugia and post-glacial colonisation routes of European white oaks based on chloroplast DNA and fossil pollen evidence (510 citations)

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

Rachid Cheddadi mainly focuses on Ecology, Holocene, Pollen, Physical geography and Climate change. His work on Range, Mediterranean climate, Palynology and Temperate climate as part of general Ecology research is frequently linked to Vegetation, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. Rachid Cheddadi has researched Holocene in several fields, including Glacial period, Period and Deciduous.

His Glacial period research integrates issues from Oceanography and Ice core. Climatology, Biome, Evergreen and Ecosystem is closely connected to Vegetation in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Pollen. His research investigates the connection between Climate change and topics such as Biodiversity that intersect with problems in Genetic diversity.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (36.18%)
  • Holocene (29.61%)
  • Pollen (26.97%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2020)?

  • Climate change (23.03%)
  • Physical geography (25.00%)
  • Ecology (36.18%)

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

Rachid Cheddadi spends much of his time researching Climate change, Physical geography, Ecology, Holocene and Mediterranean climate. His Climate change study combines topics in areas such as Biodiversity and Environmental planning. His Physical geography research includes themes of Period, Pollen and Interglacial.

His study in the fields of Tree species, Plant traits and Range under the domain of Ecology overlaps with other disciplines such as Vegetation and Social change. His research integrates issues of Plague and Vegetation in his study of Holocene. The Mediterranean Basin research he does as part of his general Mediterranean climate study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Demise, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

Between 2017 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Past and future global transformation of terrestrial ecosystems under climate change (116 citations)
  • The 4.2 ka BP event in the Levant (29 citations)
  • The origin and spread of olive cultivation in the Mediterranean Basin: The fossil pollen evidence: (21 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Climate change
  • Ecosystem

His primary areas of study are Physical geography, Mediterranean climate, Climate change, Holocene and Pollen. His study in Physical geography is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Structural basin, Climate pattern, Interglacial, Dominance and Paleoecology. Mediterranean climate is a subfield of Ecology that he studies.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Bronze Age, Chalcolithic and Olea in addition to Ecology. His Climate change research includes elements of Ice age, Biodiversity, Period, Seasonality and Iron Age. His Holocene research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cecropia and Vegetation.
