Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Botany

Tony J. Svejcar mainly investigates Plant community, Agronomy, Ecology, Steppe and Rangeland. His Plant community study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Native plant, Grazing and Invasive species. His Agronomy research incorporates themes from Agroforestry and Botany.

His Steppe research includes elements of Germination, Hydrology, Grassland, Bowen ratio and Arid. His work investigates the relationship between Rangeland and topics such as Revegetation that intersect with problems in Land restoration and Prescribed burn. His Tussock research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Juniperus occidentalis and Juniper.

His most cited work include:

  • Saving the sagebrush sea: An ecosystem conservation plan for big sagebrush plant communities (304 citations)
  • Impacts of western juniper on plant community composition and structure (213 citations)
  • Plant Functional Group Diversity as a Mechanism for Invasion Resistance (203 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Agronomy, Rangeland, Ecology, Grazing and Plant community. His Agronomy study combines topics in areas such as Soil water and Botany. His Rangeland research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Arid, Invasive species, Environmental resource management and Seedling.

His Grazing study deals with Forage intersecting with Standing crop. Tony J. Svejcar has researched Plant community in several fields, including Juniperus occidentalis, Juniper, Ecological succession and Forb. The various areas that Tony J. Svejcar examines in his Ecosystem study include Steppe and Atmospheric sciences.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (49.28%)
  • Rangeland (27.54%)
  • Ecology (27.54%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Rangeland (27.54%)
  • Ecology (27.54%)
  • Ecosystem (15.94%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Rangeland, Ecology, Ecosystem, Agronomy and Plant community. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Forestry, Bromus tectorum, Tussock and Disturbance. His study explores the link between Ecology and topics such as Environmental resource management that cross with problems in Endangered species.

His Ecosystem study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Productivity, Steppe, Canopy and Habitat. The concepts of his Steppe study are interwoven with issues in Juniper, Woodland and Ecosystem dynamics. Plant community is a primary field of his research addressed under Vegetation.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Emerging seed enhancement technologies for overcoming barriers to restoration (66 citations)
  • Challenges and limitations to native species restoration in the Great Basin, USA (44 citations)
  • Global change effects on plant communities are magnified by time and the number of global change factors imposed (42 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Botany

Tony J. Svejcar focuses on Rangeland, Ecology, Ecosystem, Bromus tectorum and Plant community. Tony J. Svejcar is doing genetic studies as part of his Agronomy and Agroforestry and Rangeland investigations. When carried out as part of a general Ecology research project, his work on Juniperus occidentalis and Juniper is frequently linked to work in Streamflow, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

His Ecosystem study incorporates themes from Adaptive management and Habitat. As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Bromus tectorum, focusing on Weed control and, on occasion, Pseudoroegneria spicata. His research investigates the connection with Plant community and areas like Introduced species which intersect with concerns in Endangered species.
