Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Wetland

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Photosynthesis, Agronomy, Botany, Salinity and Quercus lyrata. S. R. Pezeshki regularly ties together related areas like Biomass partitioning in his Photosynthesis studies. His study in Agronomy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Soil organic matter, Soil fertility and Wetland.

Botany connects with themes related to Horticulture in his study. His Salinity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Productivity and Hydrology, Flooding, Water level. His work carried out in the field of Quercus lyrata brings together such families of science as Rhizotron, Taxodium, Quercus falcata and Stomatal conductance.

His most cited work include:

  • Wetland plant responses to soil flooding (439 citations)
  • The effects of oil spill and clean-up on dominant US Gulf coast marsh macrophytes: a review. (250 citations)
  • Effect of dimethylarsenic acid (DMAA) on growth, tissue arsenic, and photosynthesis of rice plants (158 citations)

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

S. R. Pezeshki mostly deals with Photosynthesis, Agronomy, Botany, Stomatal conductance and Taxodium. His studies in Photosynthesis integrate themes in fields like Flooding, Poaceae, Water content and Plant physiology. S. R. Pezeshki combines subjects such as Spartina alterniflora, Marsh, Wetland and Salinity with his study of Agronomy.

His Botany research incorporates themes from Spartina patens, Soil water and Horticulture. His Stomatal conductance research integrates issues from Dry weight and Chlorophyll. His Taxodium study combines topics in areas such as Biomass, Cypress and Seedling.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Photosynthesis (51.61%)
  • Agronomy (46.77%)
  • Botany (45.16%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2018)?

  • Agronomy (46.77%)
  • Nutrient (14.52%)
  • Phosphorus (8.06%)

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

S. R. Pezeshki mainly focuses on Agronomy, Nutrient, Phosphorus, Shoot and Water content. His Agronomy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Photosynthesis and Leersia oryzoides. S. R. Pezeshki integrates Photosynthesis and Oxygen transport in his studies.

His Nutrient research focuses on Soil water and how it connects with Waterlogging. Shoot is a subfield of Botany that S. R. Pezeshki investigates. His Water content study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Salix nigra, Greenhouse and Cutting.

Between 2004 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Soil Oxidation-Reduction in Wetlands and Its Impact on Plant Functioning (111 citations)
  • The effects of salinity and soil drying on nutrient uptake and growth of Spartina alterniflora in a simulated tidal system (83 citations)
  • Responses of nonstructural carbohydrates to shoot removal and soil moisture treatments in Salix nigra (35 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Ecosystem

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Shoot, Photosynthesis, Salix nigra and Cutting. The Agronomy study combines topics in areas such as Soil horizon and Soil salinity. His Soil horizon research includes themes of Soil organic matter, Plant roots and Wetland.

S. R. Pezeshki connects Wetland with Oxidation reduction in his study. His Soil salinity research includes elements of Spartina alterniflora, Nutrient and Soil fertility. His Salix nigra study incorporates themes from Biomass, Water content and Plant physiology.
