Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Bacteria
  • Internal medicine

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis, Microbial population biology, Ecosystem and Soil biodiversity. Robert I. Griffiths undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Ecology and Stable isotope ratio in his work. His research in Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis intersects with topics in Nucleic acid, DNA profiling and Stable-isotope probing.

His Microbial population biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Organism, Biochemistry and Bioreactor. His studies examine the connections between Ecosystem and genetics, as well as such issues in Soil microbiology, with regards to Plant community, Soil pH and Microbial ecology. The concepts of his Soil biodiversity study are interwoven with issues in Soil biology, Soil carbon and Agronomy.

His most cited work include:

  • Rapid Method for Coextraction of DNA and RNA from Natural Environments for Analysis of Ribosomal DNA- and rRNA-Based Microbial Community Composition (1262 citations)
  • RNA Stable Isotope Probing, a Novel Means of Linking Microbial Community Function to Phylogeny (530 citations)
  • The bacterial biogeography of British soils. (515 citations)

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

Robert I. Griffiths mostly deals with Ecology, Internal medicine, Ecosystem, Microbial population biology and Soil water. Ecology is a component of his Biodiversity, Soil biodiversity, Land use, Soil microbiology and Community structure studies. His research investigates the connection with Soil biodiversity and areas like Ecosystem services which intersect with concerns in Land management.

His study looks at the relationship between Ecosystem and fields such as Agronomy, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His Microbial population biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis, Rhizosphere, Nutrient and Microorganism. His studies deal with areas such as Environmental chemistry and Botany as well as Soil water.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (32.93%)
  • Internal medicine (26.22%)
  • Ecosystem (15.24%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Ecosystem (15.24%)
  • Ecology (32.93%)
  • Microbial population biology (14.63%)

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

Robert I. Griffiths focuses on Ecosystem, Ecology, Microbial population biology, Soil water and Biodiversity. His Ecosystem research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biomass, Agronomy, Plant community and Climate change. Community structure, Taxon, Species richness, Soil microbiology and Litter are among the areas of Ecology where Robert I. Griffiths concentrates his study.

As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Microbial population biology, focusing on Nutrient and, on occasion, Total organic carbon, Assimilation and Microcosm. Robert I. Griffiths focuses mostly in the field of Soil water, narrowing it down to topics relating to Environmental chemistry and, in certain cases, Organic matter and Soil carbon. The Biodiversity study which covers Land use that intersects with Soil health, Water resource management, Disease cluster and Soil horizon.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Soil bacterial networks are less stable under drought than fungal networks. (202 citations)
  • Land use driven change in soil pH affects microbial carbon cycling processes. (88 citations)
  • Detecting macroecological patterns in bacterial communities across independent studies of global soils. (73 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Bacteria
  • Internal medicine

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Environmental chemistry, Ecosystem, Biodiversity and Soil pH. He is studying Soil microbiology, which is a component of Ecology. His studies in Ecosystem integrate themes in fields like Soil biology and Microbial ecology.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Species richness and Land use. His research integrates issues of Topsoil and Microbial population biology in his study of Soil pH. Robert I. Griffiths works mostly in the field of Microbial population biology, limiting it down to topics relating to Soil water and, in certain cases, Agronomy, Temperate climate and Yield.
