Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Ecosystem

Sanna Sevanto mainly focuses on Xylem, Ecology, Transpiration, Phloem and Hydraulic conductivity. Her Ecology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Atmospheric sciences and Cell biology. Her Transpiration study combines topics in areas such as Carbon sink and Taiga.

Her study with Phloem involves better knowledge in Botany. Sanna Sevanto has included themes like Volumetric flow rate and Tension in her Hydraulic conductivity study. Her Agronomy research focuses on subjects like Photosynthesis, which are linked to Pinus edulis and Respiration.

Her most cited work include:

  • How do trees die? A test of the hydraulic failure and carbon starvation hypotheses (411 citations)
  • A multi-species synthesis of physiological mechanisms in drought-induced tree mortality (351 citations)
  • Evaluating theories of drought‐induced vegetation mortality using a multimodel–experiment framework (269 citations)

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

Atmospheric sciences, Botany, Xylem, Ecology and Transpiration are her primary areas of study. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Atmosphere, Soil water, Canopy, Climate model and Carbon cycle. Her Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cavitation and Agronomy.

Her study in Agronomy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Pinus edulis and Turgor pressure. She interconnects Volumetric flow rate, Tension, Scots pine, Hydraulic conductivity and Phloem in the investigation of issues within Xylem. Her work investigates the relationship between Transpiration and topics such as Soil science that intersect with problems in Leaf size.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Atmospheric sciences (26.55%)
  • Botany (28.32%)
  • Xylem (25.66%)

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

  • Ecosystem (8.85%)
  • Ecology (18.58%)
  • Agronomy (14.16%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecosystem, Ecology, Agronomy, Phloem and Abundance. Her research investigates the connection between Ecosystem and topics such as Microcosm that intersect with problems in Plant litter. Her work on Climate change as part of general Ecology study is frequently linked to Microbiome, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Her research integrates issues of Carbon cycle, Vegetation, Greenhouse gas and Biogeochemistry in her study of Climate change. Her Agronomy research includes elements of Photosynthesis, Interspecific competition, Moisture and Water resources. In the field of Phloem, her study on Phloem transport overlaps with subjects such as Schmidt number.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Increasing impacts of extreme droughts on vegetation productivity under climate change (33 citations)
  • Drought impacts on tree phloem: from cell-level responses to ecological significance. (19 citations)
  • Plant-microbe interactions before drought influence plant physiological responses to subsequent severe drought. (14 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Carbon dioxide

Her primary areas of investigation include Transpiration, Competition, Precipitation, Water use and Stomatal conductance. Sanna Sevanto conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Transpiration and Optimality principle through her research. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Juniperus monosperma, Juniper, Pinus edulis and Horticulture.

She has researched Stomatal conductance in several fields, including Turgor pressure, Water content, Acclimatization, Woodland and Drought tolerance. Sanna Sevanto focuses mostly in the field of Turgor pressure, narrowing it down to topics relating to Agronomy and, in certain cases, Photosynthesis. Her work deals with themes such as Vegetation, Atmospheric sciences, Carbon cycle and Greenhouse gas, which intersect with Soil water.
