Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Sandra Lavorel spends much of her time researching Ecology, Ecosystem, Biodiversity, Ecosystem services and Climate change. In most of her Ecology studies, her work intersects topics such as Biological dispersal. Her Ecosystem research incorporates elements of Plant ecology, Plant community, Environmental change and Community structure.

Her study looks at the intersection of Biodiversity and topics like Trophic level with Forest management and Applied ecology. Her Ecosystem services research integrates issues from Land use, Conceptual framework, Environmental resource management and Sustainability. The various areas that Sandra Lavorel examines in her Climate change study include Natural resource economics and Extinction.

Her most cited work include:

  • EFFECTS OF BIODIVERSITY ON ECOSYSTEM FUNCTIONING: A CONSENSUS OF CURRENT KNOWLEDGE (5483 citations)
  • Consequences of changing biodiversity (3164 citations)
  • A handbook of protocols for standardised and easy measurement of plant functional traits worldwide (2552 citations)

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

Sandra Lavorel mostly deals with Ecology, Ecosystem, Ecosystem services, Environmental resource management and Biodiversity. Her work in Ecology is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Biological dispersal. Her Ecosystem study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Trophic level, Environmental change and Abiotic component.

Sandra Lavorel has researched Ecosystem services in several fields, including Ecosystem management, Land use, Land use, land-use change and forestry and Environmental planning. Her work carried out in the field of Environmental resource management brings together such families of science as Agriculture, Climate change, Sustainability and Recreation. Her research investigates the connection between Plant community and topics such as Agronomy that intersect with problems in Nutrient.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (54.73%)
  • Ecosystem (35.24%)
  • Ecosystem services (32.66%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Ecosystem services (32.66%)
  • Environmental resource management (29.51%)
  • Biodiversity (24.64%)

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

Ecosystem services, Environmental resource management, Biodiversity, Ecosystem and Environmental planning are her primary areas of study. Her Ecosystem services study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Conceptual framework, Sustainability and Land use. The study incorporates disciplines such as Ecological systems theory, Ecosystem management, Global change, Ecosystem assessment and Adaptive capacity in addition to Environmental resource management.

Her research integrates issues of Agroforestry and Climate change in her study of Biodiversity. Her Ecosystem study is concerned with the field of Ecology as a whole. In general Ecology, her work in Pollination, Pollinator and Habitat is often linked to Diversity linking many areas of study.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • TRY plant trait database : Enhanced coverage and open access (285 citations)
  • Nature's contributions to people in mountains: A review. (43 citations)
  • Catalyzing Transformations to Sustainability in the World's Mountains (34 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Ecosystem services, Environmental resource management, Ecosystem, Ecology and Corporate governance. The Ecosystem services study which covers Land use that intersects with Scale. The Environmental resource management study combines topics in areas such as Ecological systems theory, Conceptual framework and Adaptive capacity.

Her Ecosystem research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Biodiversity and Environmental change. Her work on Conservation planning, Tree diversity and Global biodiversity as part of general Biodiversity research is often related to The Conceptual Framework, thus linking different fields of science. The concepts of her Ecology study are interwoven with issues in Weighted arithmetic mean and Microbial population biology.
