Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

Ecology
Ecosystem
Biodiversity

Sarah C. Elmendorf mostly deals with Ecology, Tundra, Global warming, Biome and Arctic. Her is involved in several facets of Ecology study, as is seen by her studies on Ecosystem, Invasive species, Spatial heterogeneity, Biodiversity and Introduced species. Her work is dedicated to discovering how Ecosystem, Plant community are connected with Environmental change, Cumulative effects and Extinction risk from global warming and other disciplines.

Her Global warming research is classified as research in Climate change. Her work in Biome is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Permafrost. As part of her studies on Arctic, Sarah C. Elmendorf often connects relevant subjects like Shrub.

Her most cited work include:

Shrub expansion in tundra ecosystems: dynamics, impacts and research priorities (787 citations)
The spatial spread of invasions: new developments in theory and evidence (707 citations)
Global assessment of experimental climate warming on tundra vegetation: heterogeneity over space and time. (598 citations)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Tundra, Climate change, Plant community and Ecosystem. Her research integrates issues of Global warming, Vegetation and Biome in her study of Tundra. Her study in the field of Extinction risk from global warming is also linked to topics like Vegetation.

Her Plant community study incorporates themes from Null model, Colonisation, Local extinction and Agronomy. The Ecosystem study combines topics in areas such as Montane ecology, Environmental change, Community structure and Biogeochemical cycle. Her Arctic research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Shrub and Greening.

She most often published in these fields:

Ecology (95.24%)
Tundra (71.43%)
Climate change (53.97%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

Ecology (95.24%)
Tundra (71.43%)
Biome (41.27%)

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

Her primary areas of study are Ecology, Tundra, Biome, Plant community and Vegetation. Her work on Ecosystem and Phenology is typically connected to Data set, Zero and Speculation as part of general Ecology study, connecting several disciplines of science. Tundra connects with themes related to Climate change in her study.

Her Biome research includes themes of Interspecific competition and Macroecology. As a part of the same scientific family, she mostly works in the field of Plant community, focusing on Global warming and, on occasion, Environmental change, Greening, Arctic vegetation and Theoretical ecology. Her work focuses on many connections between Vegetation and other disciplines, such as Arctic, that overlap with her field of interest in Ecology.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

Plant functional trait change across a warming tundra biome (185 citations)
Plant functional trait change across a warming tundra biome (185 citations)
Plant functional trait change across a warming tundra biome (185 citations)
