Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Agriculture
  • Ecology
  • Botany

His primary scientific interests are in Transpiration, Botany, Hydrology, Soil water and Environmental engineering. His Transpiration research includes elements of DNS root zone, Agronomy, Irrigation and Photosynthetically active radiation. Steve Green studied Botany and Horticulture that intersect with Willow and Salicaceae.

His Preferential flow study, which is part of a larger body of work in Hydrology, is frequently linked to Emerging technologies, bridging the gap between disciplines. His study ties his expertise on Water content together with the subject of Soil water. He has included themes like Water use, Phytoremediation and Agriculture in his Environmental engineering study.

His most cited work include:

  • Natural and induced cadmium-accumulation in poplar and willow: Implications for phytoremediation (288 citations)
  • Theory and Practical Application of Heat Pulse to Measure Sap Flow (225 citations)
  • Water Use of Kiwifruit Vines and Apple Trees by the Heat-Pulse Technique (208 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Hydrology, Irrigation, Soil water, Agronomy and Horticulture. His Irrigation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Arid, Water use and Leaching. In his study, DNS root zone is inextricably linked to Water content, which falls within the broad field of Soil water.

His Agronomy research incorporates themes from Agroforestry and Lysimeter. Steve Green combines subjects such as Interception, Crop, Botany and Transpiration with his study of Horticulture. In Transpiration, Steve Green works on issues like Canopy, which are connected to Atmospheric sciences.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hydrology (28.57%)
  • Irrigation (24.40%)
  • Soil water (23.81%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2019)?

  • Irrigation (24.40%)
  • Hydrology (28.57%)
  • Water use (19.05%)

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

Steve Green mostly deals with Irrigation, Hydrology, Water use, Groundwater and Agronomy. His Irrigation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Leaching, Wind speed, Horticulture, Intensity and Arid. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Soil horizon, Tree species and Transpiration.

His study looks at the intersection of Transpiration and topics like PEAR with Irrigation scheduling. His research integrates issues of Radiation interception, Agricultural engineering and Irrigation water in his study of Water use. His Agronomy study combines topics in areas such as Loam and Soil fertility.

Between 2012 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • A soil change-based methodology for the quantification and valuation of ecosystem services from agro-ecosystems: A case study of pastoral agriculture in New Zealand (101 citations)
  • Water footprinting of agricultural products: a hydrological assessment for the water footprint of New Zealand's wines (76 citations)
  • Water footprinting of agricultural products: evaluation of different protocols using a case study of New Zealand wine (50 citations)

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

  • Agriculture
  • Ecology
  • Botany

His primary areas of investigation include Water use, Hydrology, Irrigation, Water quality and Groundwater. His work carried out in the field of Water use brings together such families of science as Loam and Irrigation water. Steve Green is studying Evapotranspiration, which is a component of Hydrology.

His research in Irrigation focuses on subjects like Leaching, which are connected to Salinity, Canopy and Irrigation management. The concepts of his Groundwater recharge study are interwoven with issues in Soil water and Agronomy. The Agronomy study which covers Soil conditioner that intersects with Orchard and Agriculture.
