Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Taiga, Ecology, Fire ecology, Black spruce and Fire regime are her primary areas of study. Her work carried out in the field of Taiga brings together such families of science as Forest management, Boreal, Vegetation and Disturbance. She interconnects Secondary forest, Logging, Ecosystem and Environmental resource management in the investigation of issues within Forest management.

In her study, Climate model, Global warming and Water balance is strongly linked to Physical geography, which falls under the umbrella field of Vegetation. Her study in the fields of Forest ecology, Old-growth forest, Basal area and Species richness under the domain of Ecology overlaps with other disciplines such as Paludification. Her Black spruce study incorporates themes from Ecological succession, Chronosequence and Epiphyte.

Her most cited work include:

  • Natural fire regime : a guide for sustainable management of the Canadian boreal forest (410 citations)
  • Boreal forest health and global change (406 citations)
  • Natural fire frequency for the eastern Canadian boreal forest: consequences for sustainable forestry (373 citations)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Taiga, Ecology, Forestry, Boreal and Fire regime. Her Taiga study combines topics in areas such as Forest management, Physical geography, Fire ecology and Disturbance. The Chronosequence, Old-growth forest, Ecological succession and Biodiversity research Sylvie Gauthier does as part of her general Ecology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Paludification, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

The concepts of her Forestry study are interwoven with issues in Pinus , Deciduous and Understory. Her biological study deals with issues like Biome, which deal with fields such as Climate sensitivity. Her Fire regime study is concerned with the field of Vegetation as a whole.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Taiga (69.44%)
  • Ecology (46.76%)
  • Forestry (27.78%)

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

  • Taiga (69.44%)
  • Boreal (30.56%)
  • Ecology (46.76%)

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

Her main research concerns Taiga, Boreal, Ecology, Climate change and Black spruce. Her work deals with themes such as Fire regime, Vegetation and Biodiversity, which intersect with Taiga. Her Boreal research integrates issues from Ecosystem, Biome and Forest dynamics.

Her work on Regeneration and Habitat as part of general Ecology research is frequently linked to Biogeosciences, Cryosphere and Potential effect, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. Sylvie Gauthier works mostly in the field of Climate change, limiting it down to topics relating to Physical geography and, in certain cases, Sedimentary charcoal, Paleoecology and Fire ecology, as a part of the same area of interest. Her research integrates issues of Effects of global warming and Atmospheric sciences in her study of Black spruce.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Impacts of salvage logging on biodiversity: A meta‐analysis (124 citations)
  • Young and old forest in the boreal: critical stages of ecosystem dynamics and management under global change (38 citations)
  • Incorporating Insect and Wind Disturbances in a Natural Disturbance-Based Management Framework for the Boreal Forest (25 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Sylvie Gauthier spends much of her time researching Climate change, Boreal, Ecology, Biome and Taiga. The Boreal study combines topics in areas such as Salvage logging, Ecosystem, Disturbance, Forest management and Environmental resource management. In general Ecology study, her work on Species richness often relates to the realm of Baseline, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

Her Biome research includes themes of Climate sensitivity, Effects of global warming and Black spruce. Her research in Black spruce intersects with topics in Fire regime and Deciduous. She has researched Taiga in several fields, including Biodiversity, Forest ecology and Forest dynamics.
