Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Sandra Díaz mostly deals with Ecology, Ecosystem, Ecosystem services, Botany and Range. Her study involves Climate change, Vegetation, Herbivore, Species richness and Grazing, a branch of Ecology. Her study in Ecosystem is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Abundance, Biodiversity, Environmental change and Interspecific competition.

In her research on the topic of Biodiversity, Applied ecology is strongly related with Trophic level. The study incorporates disciplines such as Plant ecology and Natural resource economics in addition to Environmental change. Her Ecosystem services research integrates issues from Indigenous, Ecology and Environmental resource management.

Her most cited work include:

  • Consequences of changing biodiversity (3081 citations)
  • A handbook of protocols for standardised and easy measurement of plant functional traits worldwide (2451 citations)
  • Vive la différence: plant functional diversity matters to ecosystem processes (2010 citations)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Ecosystem, Biodiversity, Ecosystem services and Environmental resource management. All of her Ecology and Plant community, Range, Vegetation, Biomass and Species richness investigations are sub-components of the entire Ecology study. Her studies in Vegetation integrate themes in fields like Forestry and Land use.

Her research investigates the connection with Ecosystem and areas like Botany which intersect with concerns in Agronomy. Sandra Díaz has researched Biodiversity in several fields, including Agroforestry, Natural resource economics and Environmental planning. Her Ecosystem services study incorporates themes from Indigenous, Ecology and Sustainability.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (48.06%)
  • Ecosystem (25.58%)
  • Biodiversity (23.64%)

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

  • Biodiversity (23.64%)
  • Ecology (48.06%)
  • Ecosystem services (15.89%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Biodiversity, Ecology, Ecosystem services, Sustainability and Resilience. Her Biodiversity research focuses on subjects like Environmental planning, which are linked to Plant diversity. Her Ecology study typically links adjacent topics like Specific leaf area.

Her work carried out in the field of Ecosystem services brings together such families of science as Indigenous and Knowledge-based systems. Her study looks at the relationship between Range and topics such as Biomass, which overlap with Species richness. The study of Ecosystem is intertwined with the study of Natural resource economics in a number of ways.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Assessing nature's contributions to people (706 citations)
  • Pervasive human-driven decline of life on Earth points to the need for transformative change. (260 citations)
  • Plant functional trait change across a warming tundra biome (185 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Sustainability, Biodiversity, Ecosystem services, Business and Ecology. Her Sustainability research incorporates themes from Complex adaptive system, Ecological systems theory and Sustainable development. Sandra Díaz has included themes like Evolutionary biology and Environmental planning in her Biodiversity study.

Her Ecosystem services research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Indigenous and Environmental economics. Ecology is represented through her Plant community, Tundra and Ecosystem research. Sandra Díaz interconnects Environmental change, Specific leaf area and Vegetation in the investigation of issues within Ecosystem.
