1960 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Ecosystem

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Forestry, Herbaceous plant, Forest management, Interspecific competition and Vegetation. The Silviculture research Robert G. Wagner does as part of his general Forestry study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Empirical modelling, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. Robert G. Wagner studied Herbaceous plant and Woody plant that intersect with Agronomy, Black spruce, Taiga, Alder and Fern.

His study on Forest management is covered under Ecology. His study in Interspecific competition is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Abundance, Pinus strobus and Vegetation dynamics. In his research, Plant community, Shrub and Plant ecology is intimately related to Competition, which falls under the overarching field of Abundance.

His most cited work include:

  • The role of vegetation management for enhancing productivity of the world's forests (212 citations)
  • Process versus empirical models: which approach for forest ecosystem management? (178 citations)
  • Dynamics of coarse woody debris following gap harvesting in the Acadian forest of central Maine, U.S.A. (145 citations)

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

Robert G. Wagner focuses on Forestry, Ecology, Silviculture, Forest management and Agroforestry. His Forestry research integrates issues from Hardwood, Herbaceous plant and Interspecific competition. His study in the fields of Canopy, Species diversity, Abundance and Peromyscus under the domain of Ecology overlaps with other disciplines such as Vole.

His Silviculture research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Community forestry, Vegetation dynamics and Forest health. His Forest management research incorporates elements of Old-growth forest, Forest ecology and Basal area. In his research on the topic of Agroforestry, Stand development and Coarse woody debris is strongly related with Biodiversity.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Forestry (53.49%)
  • Ecology (25.58%)
  • Silviculture (23.26%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Forestry (53.49%)
  • Hardwood (12.79%)
  • Thinning (16.28%)

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

Robert G. Wagner mostly deals with Forestry, Hardwood, Thinning, Basal area and Agronomy. In the subject of general Forestry, his work in Silviculture is often linked to Tree, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His study looks at the intersection of Hardwood and topics like Red maple with Maple.

He has included themes like Forest management, Agroforestry, Abies balsamea, Shade tolerance and Softwood in his Thinning study. His research in Basal area intersects with topics in Inventory valuation, Spruce-fir forests, Forest inventory and Sampling. His Agronomy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Windthrow and Balsam, Botany.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Development of branch, crown, and vertical distribution leaf area models for contrasting hardwood species in Maine, USA (21 citations)
  • Efficiency of alternative forest inventory methods in partially harvested stands (12 citations)
  • Development and evaluation of aboveground small tree biomass models for naturally regenerated and planted species in eastern Maine, U.S.A. (11 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Ecosystem

Hybrid poplar, Hardwood, Red maple, Botany and Agronomy are his primary areas of study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Trembling aspen, Populus sp. and Aboveground biomass in addition to Hybrid poplar. His study in Hardwood is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Crown and Key.
