Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Ecosystem

Sara A. O. Cousins mainly investigates Ecology, Species richness, Biodiversity, Grassland and Plant community. Her Habitat, Landscape ecology and Species diversity study in the realm of Ecology connects with subjects such as Landscape history. Her Species richness research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Habitat destruction and Habitat fragmentation.

Sara A. O. Cousins usually deals with Biodiversity and limits it to topics linked to Historical ecology and Afforestation. Sara A. O. Cousins has researched Grassland in several fields, including Old field, Land use, land-use change and forestry, Land use and Arable land. Her Plant community research includes themes of Plant ecology, Abundance, Seed dispersal and Grazing.

Her most cited work include:

  • Land-use history and fragmentation of traditionally managed grasslands in Scandinavia (271 citations)
  • Analysis of land-cover transitions based on 17th and 18th century cadastral maps and aerial photographs (203 citations)
  • The influence of management history and habitat on plant species richness in a rural hemiboreal landscape, Sweden (197 citations)

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

Her primary areas of study are Ecology, Biodiversity, Habitat, Species richness and Grassland. Her studies in Ecology integrate themes in fields like Biological dispersal and Seed dispersal. The study incorporates disciplines such as Extinction, Ecosystem services, Environmental resource management, Generalist and specialist species and Woodland in addition to Biodiversity.

Sara A. O. Cousins studied Habitat and Ecosystem that intersect with Abundance. Her Species richness research incorporates elements of Historical ecology, Vegetation, Understory and Species diversity. Livestock is closely connected to Grazing in her research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Grassland.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (81.56%)
  • Biodiversity (36.88%)
  • Habitat (30.50%)

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

  • Ecology (81.56%)
  • Biodiversity (36.88%)
  • Understory (9.93%)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Biodiversity, Understory, Species richness and Plant community. Her research on Ecology often connects related topics like Biological dispersal. Sara A. O. Cousins combines subjects such as Agriculture, Microclimate and Agroforestry with her study of Biodiversity.

Her Understory research includes elements of Range, Forest management, Temperate forest, Functional diversity and Woodland. As a part of the same scientific study, Sara A. O. Cousins usually deals with the Species richness, concentrating on Vegetation and frequently concerns with Species diversity, Woody plant and Nestedness. Her study looks at the intersection of Habitat fragmentation and topics like Habitat destruction with Landscape ecology.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Functional trait variation of forest understorey plant communities across Europe (15 citations)
  • High ecosystem service delivery potential of small woodlands in agricultural landscapes (13 citations)
  • Plant diversity in hedgerows and road verges across Europe (9 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Sara A. O. Cousins focuses on Ecology, Biodiversity, Habitat fragmentation, Woodland and Generalist and specialist species. Her Ecology study frequently links to other fields, such as Landscape connectivity. Her Biodiversity research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Land cover, Forest inventory, Canopy and Physical geography.

The Habitat fragmentation study combines topics in areas such as Archipelago, Habitat destruction, Ecology, Grassland and Campanula rotundifolia. Her Woodland study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Agroforestry, Species distribution, Habitat, Atmospheric sciences and Ecotone. Her studies deal with areas such as Soil biology, Abundance, Land use, Species richness and Vegetation as well as Generalist and specialist species.
