Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Climate change
  • Ecosystem

Ulf Büntgen mostly deals with Climatology, Climate change, Ecology, Dendrochronology and Physical geography. His Climatology research incorporates themes from Dendroclimatology and Paleoclimatology. Ulf Büntgen has included themes like Abies alba, Ecosystem and Roman Empire in his Climate change study.

His work on Phenology, Host, Larch and Terrestrial ecosystem is typically connected to Outbreak as part of general Ecology study, connecting several disciplines of science. The study incorporates disciplines such as Natural, δ13C, Holocene, Water cycle and Taiga in addition to Dendrochronology. His work deals with themes such as δ18O, Environmental change, Agricultural productivity and Chronology, which intersect with Physical geography.

His most cited work include:

  • 2500 Years of European Climate Variability and Human Susceptibility (816 citations)
  • 2500 Years of European Climate Variability and Human Susceptibility (816 citations)
  • Continental-scale temperature variability during the past two millennia (709 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Climate change, Climatology, Physical geography and Dendrochronology. His research related to Ecosystem, Global warming, Phenology, Larch and Productivity might be considered part of Ecology. His Climate change study deals with Mediterranean climate intersecting with Climate sensitivity.

In his research on the topic of Climatology, Period is strongly related with Paleoclimatology. Ulf Büntgen combines subjects such as Glacial period, Radiocarbon dating, δ18O, Precipitation and Holocene with his study of Physical geography. His work on Dendrochronology is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Volcano.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (52.71%)
  • Climate change (39.76%)
  • Climatology (31.53%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Physical geography (33.18%)
  • Dendrochronology (29.18%)
  • Ecology (52.71%)

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

Ulf Büntgen mainly focuses on Physical geography, Dendrochronology, Ecology, Climatology and Climate change. The various areas that Ulf Büntgen examines in his Physical geography study include Glacial period, Radiocarbon dating, Paleoclimatology, δ18O and δ13C. His Dendrochronology study combines topics in areas such as Productivity, Permafrost, Period and Precipitation.

His Ecology study incorporates themes from North Atlantic oscillation and Genetic variation. His study in the field of Northern Hemisphere is also linked to topics like Historical model, Hurst exponent and Western europe. His Climate sensitivity study, which is part of a larger body of work in Climate change, is frequently linked to Economic benefits, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • THE INTCAL20 NORTHERN HEMISPHERE RADIOCARBON AGE CALIBRATION CURVE (0–55 CAL kBP) (332 citations)
  • Long-term ecological consequences of forest fires in the continuous permafrost zone of Siberia (14 citations)
  • Quality Dating: A Well-Defined Protocol Implemented at ETH for High-Precision 14C-Dates Tested on Late Glacial Wood (13 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Climate change
  • Ecosystem

Ulf Büntgen focuses on Physical geography, Ecology, Climate change, Dendrochronology and Dendroclimatology. His Physical geography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ocean circulation model, Radiocarbon dating and Northern Hemisphere. His studies deal with areas such as Genetic composition, Population cycle and Reproductive success as well as Ecology.

His work on Climate sensitivity as part of his general Climate change study is frequently connected to Outbreak, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Dendrochronology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Period, Paleoclimatology, Environmental change, Holocene and Absolute dating. He interconnects Volcano, Antique, Proxy and East Asia in the investigation of issues within Dendroclimatology.
