Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

Ecology
Botany
Ecosystem

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Botany, Xylem, Fagus sylvatica and Phenology. His study in the fields of Climate change, Woody plant and Interspecific competition under the domain of Ecology overlaps with other disciplines such as Tree. His Climate change study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Plant ecology, Biodiversity, Forest ecology and Environmental resource management.

Botany is closely attributed to Seasonality in his study. His Xylem research includes themes of Drought tolerance, Hydraulic conductivity, Water stress and Transpiration. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Quercus petraea and Temperate climate.

His most cited work include:

Climate change impacts, adaptive capacity, and vulnerability of European forest ecosystems (1280 citations)
Global convergence in the vulnerability of forests to drought (1256 citations)
Facilitation in plant communities: the past, the present, and the future (1224 citations)

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

Sylvain Delzon mostly deals with Ecology, Xylem, Botany, Phenology and Climate change. Ecology and Genetic variation are commonly linked in his work. His study in the field of Tracheid also crosses realms of Embolism.

In the field of Botany, his study on Stomatal conductance, Transpiration and Water stress overlaps with subjects such as Water transport. His Phenology study deals with Temperate climate intersecting with Reproductive success and Mediterranean climate. He has researched Climate change in several fields, including Environmental resource management, Biome and Forest ecology.

He most often published in these fields:

Ecology (71.07%)
Xylem (47.93%)
Botany (46.28%)

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

Ecology (71.07%)
Xylem (47.93%)
Quercus petraea (18.18%)

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

Sylvain Delzon spends much of his time researching Ecology, Xylem, Quercus petraea, Context and Resistance. The various areas that he examines in his Ecology study include Microevolution and Introgression. His study with Xylem involves better knowledge in Botany.

His work on Tracheid as part of general Botany research is frequently linked to Key innovation, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. The study incorporates disciplines such as Species distribution, Genetic variation, Germination and Seedling in addition to Quercus petraea. Sylvain Delzon has included themes like Wood production, Pinus pinaster, Tree species and Phenotypic plasticity in his Resistance study.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

Adaptive introgression as a driver of local adaptation to climate in European white oaks (26 citations)
No role for xylem embolism or carbohydrate shortage in temperate trees during the severe 2015 drought (20 citations)
Advanced vascular function discovered in a widespread moss. (12 citations)

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

Ecology
Botany
Ecosystem

Sylvain Delzon mainly focuses on Xylem, Botany, Cavitation, Resistance and Microcomputed tomography. His Xylem study often links to related topics such as Temperate climate. His Botany study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Hydraulic conductivity and Membrane thickness.

His studies link Soil science with Cavitation.
