Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Statistics

Valério D. Pillar mainly investigates Ecology, Biodiversity, Grassland, Species richness and Vegetation. Many of his studies on Ecology apply to Metacommunity as well. His Biodiversity study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Ecology, Radiocarbon dating, Paleoecology and Land use.

Valério D. Pillar interconnects Dominance, Grazing and Seedling in the investigation of issues within Grassland. His work deals with themes such as Subtropics and Range, which intersect with Species richness. His Vegetation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Multivariate statistics, Statistical hypothesis testing and Explained sum of squares.

His most cited work include:

  • TRY - a global database of plant traits (1611 citations)
  • Brazil's neglected biome: The South Brazilian Campos (452 citations)
  • A global meta-analysis of the relative extent of intraspecific trait variation in plant communities (437 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Grassland, Vegetation, Biodiversity and Species richness. His is involved in several facets of Ecology study, as is seen by his studies on Plant community, Araucaria, Ecosystem, Subtropics and Plant ecology. His Grassland study also includes

  • Forage most often made with reference to Grazing,
  • Woody plant which connect with Seed dispersal.

His Vegetation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Biomass, Forestry, Ordination and Disturbance. His studies deal with areas such as Agroforestry, Climate change, Environmental resource management, Animal ecology and Biome as well as Biodiversity. Valério D. Pillar frequently studies issues relating to Species diversity and Species richness.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (56.35%)
  • Grassland (24.37%)
  • Vegetation (21.83%)

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

  • Ecology (56.35%)
  • Biodiversity (19.29%)
  • Vegetation (8.12%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Biodiversity, Vegetation, Ecosystem and Species richness. Grassland, Subtropics, Functional diversity, Invertebrate and Intraspecific competition are the core of his Ecology study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Climate change, Tree species and Biome.

His studies in Ecosystem integrate themes in fields like Pleistocene and Botany. His Species richness research includes elements of Plant community, Diversity and Paleoclimatology. His Plant community study introduces a deeper knowledge of Vegetation.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • TRY plant trait database : Enhanced coverage and open access (179 citations)
  • sPlot – A new tool for global vegetation analyses (72 citations)
  • Why Brazil needs its Legal Reserves (38 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Ecosystem

His scientific interests lie mostly in Plant community, Biodiversity, Ecology, Ecology and Species richness. The concepts of his Biodiversity study are interwoven with issues in Database, Identification, Functional ecology, Grassland and Dominance. His Ecology study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Seed dispersal.

His Ecology research incorporates elements of Data integration, Representativeness heuristic and Ecosystem model. His Species richness study combines topics in areas such as Context, Abundance, Physical geography and Ecoinformatics. The concepts of his Macroecology study are interwoven with issues in Intraspecific competition, Vegetation, Competition, Community and Abiotic component.
