About James A. Lutz

James A. Lutz, With an exceptional h-index of 49 and a recent h-index of 43 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at Utah State University, specializes in the field of Forest Ecology, Fire Ecology.

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

Mapping distribution of woody plant species richness from field rapid assessment and machine learning

The importance of regeneration processes on forest biodiversity in old-growth forests in the Pacific Northwest

Optimal representation of spring phenology on photosynthetic productivity across the northern hemisphere forests

Latitudinal patterns in stabilizing density dependence of forest communities

Fire-caused mortality within tree neighborhoods increases growth of Pinus lambertiana more than growth of Abies concolor

Elevated mortality rates of large trees allow for increased frequency of intermediate trees: A hypothesis supported by demographic model comparison with plot and LiDAR data

Reconstructing the climate and ecology of an Early Miocene tropical forest on the flanks of the Tinderet Volcano, Kisumu County, western Kenya

Tree mortality may drive landscape formation: Comparative study from ten temperate forests
