What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Climate change
- Botany
His primary areas of study are Climatology, Dendrochronology, Climate change, Ecology and Southern Hemisphere.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Paleoclimatology and Precipitation.
His work deals with themes such as Subtropics, Period, Chronology and Physical geography, which intersect with Dendrochronology.
In Climate change, Ricardo Villalba works on issues like Centennial, which are connected to Adaptation strategies, Seasonality, Convective rainfall and Ice age.
His study in the field of Woodland, Fire ecology, Abies lasiocarpa and Picea engelmannii also crosses realms of Deserts and xeric shrublands.
In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Southern Hemisphere, Empirical orthogonal functions is strongly linked to Teleconnection.
His most cited work include:
- Continental-scale temperature variability during the past two millennia (709 citations)
- High-resolution palaeoclimatology of the last millennium: a review of current status and future prospects: (510 citations)
- Disturbance regime and disturbance interactions in a Rocky Mountain subalpine forest (320 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Ricardo Villalba mostly deals with Climatology, Dendrochronology, Ecology, Precipitation and Physical geography.
His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Subtropics, Streamflow and Climate change, Paleoclimatology.
His work on Dendroclimatology is typically connected to Austrocedrus as part of general Dendrochronology study, connecting several disciplines of science.
His work on Nothofagus pumilio, Range, Woodland and Vegetation as part of general Ecology research is frequently linked to Deserts and xeric shrublands, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.
His research in Precipitation intersects with topics in Period, Polylepis and Amazon rainforest.
Ricardo Villalba works mostly in the field of Physical geography, limiting it down to topics relating to Snow and, in certain cases, Hydrology.
He most often published in these fields:
- Climatology (33.33%)
- Dendrochronology (32.10%)
- Ecology (25.51%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Physical geography (21.40%)
- Climate change (17.70%)
- Climatology (33.33%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of investigation include Physical geography, Climate change, Climatology, Precipitation and Dendrochronology.
His work on Glacier and Ice field as part of general Physical geography study is frequently connected to Cryosphere, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.
His Climate change study deals with the bigger picture of Ecology.
His Climatology study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Subtropics.
Ricardo Villalba has included themes like Period, Vegetation, Polylepis and Amazon rainforest in his Precipitation study.
His research integrates issues of Chronology and Growing season in his study of Dendrochronology.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Tree rings reveal globally coherent signature of cosmogenic radiocarbon events in 774 and 993 CE. (54 citations)
- Low growth resilience to drought is related to future mortality risk in trees (46 citations)
- Teleconnection stationarity, variability and trends of the Southern Annular Mode (SAM) during the last millennium (31 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Climate change
- Botany
His primary areas of study are Climate change, Climatology, Physical geography, Ecology and Vegetation.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Dendrochronology, Forest dynamics and Greenhouse gas in addition to Climate change.
His study in Dendrochronology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Westerlies and Middle latitudes.
A large part of his Climatology studies is devoted to Teleconnection.
His study on Productivity, Tropical trees and Adaptation is often connected to Convergence as part of broader study in Ecology.
The concepts of his Vegetation study are interwoven with issues in Period and Precipitation.
