Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Sally Archibald mostly deals with Ecology, Vegetation, Fire regime, Seasonality and Biome. Her Vegetation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Forest management and Environmental resource management. Sally Archibald interconnects Variety, Meteorology and Vegetation dynamics in the investigation of issues within Fire regime.

Her Seasonality study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Climatology and Spatial variability. Biome is the subject of her research, which falls under Ecosystem. Her work deals with themes such as Biota, Earth system science and Taiga, which intersect with Ecosystem.

Her most cited work include:

  • The global extent and determinants of savanna and forest as alternative biome states. (732 citations)
  • What limits fire? An examination of drivers of burnt area in Southern Africa (476 citations)
  • Savanna vegetation-fire-climate relationships differ among continents. (340 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Ecology, Ecosystem, Vegetation, Fire regime and Biome. Her Ecology and Herbivore, Biomass, Grazing, Dry season and Phenology investigations all form part of her Ecology research activities. Her study in Ecosystem is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Arid, Global change, Greenhouse gas and Environmental resource management.

Her work in Vegetation addresses issues such as Earth system science, which are connected to fields such as Biota. She has included themes like Biodiversity, Boreal, Land use, Climate change and Seasonality in her Fire regime study. Her research in Seasonality intersects with topics in Climatology, Satellite imagery and Physical geography.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (72.73%)
  • Ecosystem (39.61%)
  • Vegetation (37.66%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Ecosystem (39.61%)
  • Fire regime (39.61%)
  • Disturbance (5.19%)

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

Sally Archibald focuses on Ecosystem, Fire regime, Disturbance, Ecology and Environmental resource management. Her studies deal with areas such as Restoration ecology, Atmospheric sciences and Land use as well as Ecosystem. Her research brings together the fields of Vegetation and Land use.

Her Fire regime research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Dry season and Seedling. Her Seedling research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Biomass, Frost, Greenhouse and Biome. Her study in Environmental resource management is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Anthropocene, Global biodiversity, Biodiversity and Climate change.

Between 2019 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Quantitative assessment of fire and vegetation properties in simulations with fire-enabled vegetation models from the Fire Model Intercomparison Project (14 citations)
  • Fire and biodiversity in the Anthropocene (10 citations)
  • Fire and biodiversity in the Anthropocene (10 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Ecosystem, Land use, Fire regime, Vegetation and Biodiversity. Sally Archibald interconnects Spatial ecology and Seasonality in the investigation of issues within Ecosystem. Her research integrates issues of Atmospheric sciences, Carbon cycle and Precipitation in her study of Spatial ecology.

The Seasonality study combines topics in areas such as Environmental change, Climatology and Common spatial pattern. Her Biodiversity study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Anthropocene, Climate change, Environmental resource management and Disturbance.
