Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Botany

Soil water, Carbon cycle, Soil organic matter, Soil carbon and Ecology are her primary areas of study. Her Soil water research integrates issues from Hydrology and Carbon dioxide. Her studies in Carbon cycle integrate themes in fields like Atmospheric sciences, Cycling, Meteorology, Dry season and Animal science.

Her Soil organic matter study incorporates themes from Organic matter, Humus, Soil fertility, Biogeochemical cycle and Plant litter. The various areas that she examines in her Soil carbon study include Agronomy, Global warming, Environmental chemistry, No-till farming and Carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere. As part of one scientific family, Susan E. Trumbore deals mainly with the area of Ecology, narrowing it down to issues related to the Carbon sequestration, and often Permafrost.

Her most cited work include:

  • Persistence of soil organic matter as an ecosystem property (3110 citations)
  • The role of deep roots in the hydrological and carbon cycles of Amazonian forests and pastures (1099 citations)
  • Mineral control of soil organic carbon storage and turnover (1081 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Soil water, Soil carbon, Environmental chemistry, Soil organic matter and Ecology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Organic matter, Carbon cycle and Agronomy in addition to Soil water. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Hydrology, Atmospheric sciences, Carbon sink and Carbon sequestration.

Her Soil carbon study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Temperate forest, Carbon dioxide and Soil horizon. Her Environmental chemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Radiocarbon dating and Isotopes of carbon. Her Soil organic matter study combines topics in areas such as Soil chemistry and Plant litter.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Soil water (33.19%)
  • Soil carbon (23.95%)
  • Environmental chemistry (20.59%)

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

  • Soil water (33.19%)
  • Soil carbon (23.95%)
  • Environmental chemistry (20.59%)

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

Susan E. Trumbore mostly deals with Soil water, Soil carbon, Environmental chemistry, Radiocarbon dating and Agronomy. Her study on Soil organic matter is often connected to Database as part of broader study in Soil water. Her Soil carbon research incorporates elements of Carbon dioxide, Carbon cycle, Atmospheric sciences and Soil horizon.

Susan E. Trumbore works mostly in the field of Environmental chemistry, limiting it down to topics relating to Autotroph and, in certain cases, Heterotroph. Disturbance is closely connected to Ecology in her research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Radiocarbon dating. Her study in Agronomy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sugar, Carbon storage and Cycling.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Soil organic carbon stability in forests: Distinct effects of tree species identity and traits (51 citations)
  • Soil organic carbon stability in forests: Distinct effects of tree species identity and traits (51 citations)
  • Eyes on the future – evidence for trade-offs between growth, storage and defense in Norway spruce (49 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Carbon dioxide

Her primary scientific interests are in Soil water, Soil carbon, Agronomy, Environmental chemistry and Soil organic matter. Her research in Soil water intersects with topics in Organic matter, Climate change and Weathering. Susan E. Trumbore combines subjects such as Carbon dioxide, Carbon cycle and Soil horizon with her study of Soil carbon.

Her work on Dissolved organic carbon and Biogeochemical cycle as part of general Environmental chemistry research is frequently linked to Methanol, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. Her Soil organic matter research includes themes of δ13C, Temperate climate and Taiga. In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Radiocarbon dating, Ecology is strongly linked to Dendrochronology.
