Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Ecosystem

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Vegetation, Climate change, Biodiversity and Amazonian. In the field of Ecology, his study on Rainforest and Range overlaps with subjects such as Context. His studies in Vegetation integrate themes in fields like Climatology, Palynology, Pollen, Pleistocene and Environmental change.

His study looks at the relationship between Environmental change and topics such as Plant community, which overlap with Climate model. His research in Climate change intersects with topics in Ecosystem and Tropical rainforest. His study in Biodiversity is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Species richness, Evolutionary ecology, Biological dispersal and Extinction.

His most cited work include:

  • Responses of Amazonian ecosystems to climatic and atmospheric carbon dioxide changes since the last glacial maximum (191 citations)
  • Responses of Amazonian ecosystems to climatic and atmospheric carbon dioxide changes since the last glacial maximum (191 citations)
  • Modeling the ecology and evolution of biodiversity: Biogeographical cradles, museums, and graves (129 citations)

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

His main research concerns Ecology, Vegetation, Pollen, Climate change and Physical geography. His is involved in several facets of Ecology study, as is seen by his studies on Biodiversity, Amazon rainforest, Species richness, Woodland and Amazonian. The Vegetation study combines topics in areas such as Evergreen, Abundance, Environmental change and Holocene.

In general Pollen study, his work on Palynology often relates to the realm of Ultraviolet, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His work deals with themes such as Arid, Glacial period, Climatology and Ecosystem, which intersect with Climate change. William D. Gosling has researched Physical geography in several fields, including Period and Interglacial.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (56.55%)
  • Vegetation (46.90%)
  • Pollen (41.38%)

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

  • Vegetation (46.90%)
  • Ecology (56.55%)
  • Pollen (41.38%)

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

Vegetation, Ecology, Pollen, Atmospheric sciences and Physical geography are his primary areas of study. His Vegetation research includes elements of Peat, Moss, Species richness and Podocarpus. Ecology is represented through his Biodiversity, Amazon rainforest, Dominance, Tropical andes and Coprolite research.

His work on Amazonian as part of general Amazon rainforest research is frequently linked to Trait, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. His work on Palynology as part of general Pollen research is frequently linked to Water transport and Context, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Physical geography study incorporates themes from Sediment, Climate change, Holocene, Interglacial and Paleoecology.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A 7000-year history of changing plant trait composition in an Amazonian landscape; the role of humans and climate. (16 citations)
  • New land in the Neotropics: a review of biotic community, ecosystem, and landscape transformations in the face of climate and glacier change (14 citations)
  • Thermal niche traits of high alpine plant species and communities across the tropical Andes and their vulnerability to global warming (11 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

His primary areas of investigation include Climate change, Physical geography, Pollen, Vegetation and Wetland. His Climate change study combines topics in areas such as Dominance, Forest dynamics and Amazonian, Amazon rainforest. His Pollen study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Agriculture, Domestication, Poaceae and Chemotaxonomy.

His research on Vegetation also deals with topics like

  • Vascular plant most often made with reference to Podocarpus,
  • Paleoecology, which have a strong connection to Holocene. As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Wetland, concentrating on Resource and frequently concerns with Chronosequence, STREAMS, Glacier and Ecosystem. His Niche study deals with the bigger picture of Ecology.
