Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Ecosystem

His main research concerns Ecology, Botany, Agronomy, Picea abies and Soil water. His Ecology research includes themes of Carbon, δ13C and Isotopes of carbon. In his research on the topic of Isotopes of carbon, Atmospheric sciences and Biome is strongly related with Photosynthesis.

His study of Canopy is a part of Botany. Rolf T. W. Siegwolf has included themes like Stomatal conductance, Soil fertility and Transpiration in his Agronomy study. His Soil water study combines topics in areas such as Evergreen, Organic matter, Quercus suber and Growing season.

His most cited work include:

  • Carbon Flux and Growth in Mature Deciduous Forest Trees Exposed to Elevated CO2 (471 citations)
  • Linking stable oxygen and carbon isotopes with stomatal conductance and photosynthetic capacity: a conceptual model. (425 citations)
  • Carbon isotope discrimination indicates improving water-use efficiency of trees in northern Eurasia over the last 100 years (293 citations)

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

Rolf T. W. Siegwolf spends much of his time researching Botany, Atmospheric sciences, Environmental chemistry, Ecology and Agronomy. His research in Botany focuses on subjects like Isotopes of carbon, which are connected to Carbon dioxide. His research investigates the connection between Atmospheric sciences and topics such as Precipitation that intersect with problems in δ18O, Hydrology and Climatology.

His study on Environmental chemistry also encompasses disciplines like

  • Soil water, which have a strong connection to Growing season,
  • Isotope analysis which connect with Isotope-ratio mass spectrometry. His Agronomy research incorporates themes from Nutrient, Soil respiration and Scots pine. His Stomatal conductance research incorporates elements of Vapour Pressure Deficit, Transpiration, δ13C and Water-use efficiency.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (30.63%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (18.66%)
  • Environmental chemistry (18.31%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • δ13C (17.25%)
  • Larch (13.73%)
  • Botany (30.63%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in δ13C, Larch, Botany, Atmospheric sciences and Stomatal conductance. Δ13C is closely attributed to Agronomy in his work. His research on Larch also deals with topics like

  • Growing season which is related to area like Soil water and Snow,
  • Physical geography which intersects with area such as Sunshine duration, European Larch and Ecosystem,
  • δ18O, which have a strong connection to Hydrology.

The concepts of his Botany study are interwoven with issues in Carbon cycle, Oxygen isotope ratio cycle and Isotope fractionation. Rolf T. W. Siegwolf has researched Atmospheric sciences in several fields, including Hydrology, Temperate climate and Precipitation. His Stomatal conductance study also includes fields such as

  • Vapour Pressure Deficit which is related to area like Ecology,
  • Scots pine most often made with reference to Water-use efficiency.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Belowground carbon trade among tall trees in a temperate forest (107 citations)
  • Plant responses to rising vapor pressure deficit. (81 citations)
  • Recovery of trees from drought depends on belowground sink control (78 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Ecosystem

His primary scientific interests are in Botany, Stomatal conductance, Photosynthesis, Growing season and Soil water. His research in Botany is mostly focused on Woody plant. His Stomatal conductance research includes elements of Fagus sylvatica, Agronomy, Vapour Pressure Deficit, δ13C and Water-use efficiency.

As a part of the same scientific family, Rolf T. W. Siegwolf mostly works in the field of Photosynthesis, focusing on Climate change and, on occasion, Soil respiration, Biome, Drought tolerance, Abundance and Terrestrial ecosystem. His Growing season research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Larch, Beech, Ecosystem and Precipitation. His study on Precipitation also encompasses disciplines like

  • δ18O that connect with fields like Hydrology,
  • Pinus mugo, which have a strong connection to Atmospheric sciences.
