Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Climate change

Scott J. Goetz spends much of his time researching Remote sensing, Ecology, Vegetation, Climate change and Satellite. His Remote sensing research integrates issues from Image resolution and Atmospheric correction. His study in Tundra, Arctic, Taiga, Forest ecology and Primary production are all subfields of Ecology.

His Tundra study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Boreal and Physical geography. His Vegetation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Land cover, Watershed and Canopy. His Satellite research incorporates elements of Impervious surface, Riparian buffer, Riparian zone and Resource management.

His most cited work include:

  • High-Resolution Global Maps of 21st-Century Forest Cover Change (4897 citations)
  • Estimated carbon dioxide emissions from tropical deforestation improved by carbon-density maps (978 citations)
  • Shrub expansion in tundra ecosystems: dynamics, impacts and research priorities (787 citations)

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

Scott J. Goetz mostly deals with Remote sensing, Ecology, Vegetation, Climatology and Climate change. The Remote sensing study combines topics in areas such as Canopy and Satellite. His research on Vegetation frequently links to adjacent areas such as Land cover.

His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Albedo and Boreal. His Tundra course of study focuses on Physical geography and Ecosystem. His Taiga research incorporates themes from Atmospheric sciences and Deciduous.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Remote sensing (26.19%)
  • Ecology (18.15%)
  • Vegetation (17.86%)

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

  • Physical geography (13.69%)
  • Climate change (13.99%)
  • Ecosystem (13.10%)

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

Physical geography, Climate change, Ecosystem, Atmospheric sciences and Boreal are his primary areas of study. His Physical geography research includes elements of Tundra, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index and Global change. His Tundra study is associated with Ecology.

His Climate change study incorporates themes from Vegetation, Land degradation and Amazon rainforest. Scott J. Goetz works mostly in the field of Ecosystem, limiting it down to concerns involving Wildlife and, occasionally, Graminoid and Productivity. Scott J. Goetz has included themes like Snow, Lidar, Greenhouse gas and Taiga in his Atmospheric sciences study.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Plant functional trait change across a warming tundra biome (185 citations)
  • Global restoration opportunities in tropical rainforest landscapes. (104 citations)
  • Complexity revealed in the greening of the Arctic (89 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Climate change

Scott J. Goetz mainly investigates Vegetation, Global warming, Ecosystem, Climate change and Biodiversity. His Vegetation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Arctic and Environmental resource management. His research in Arctic intersects with topics in Remote sensing, Remote sensing, Satellite and The arctic.

His study on Ecosystem is covered under Ecology. His Biodiversity research incorporates elements of Biomass, Agroforestry, Ecosystem model and Amazon rainforest. His work investigates the relationship between Fire regime and topics such as Taiga that intersect with problems in Atmospheric sciences.
