About Rachael Gallagher

Rachael Gallagher, With an exceptional h-index of 37 and a recent h-index of 31 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at Macquarie University, specializes in the field of plant conservation, biogeography, climate change adaptation, functional trait ecology.

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

traits. build: a data model, workflow and R package for building harmonised ecological trait databases

Burn severity and post‐fire weather are key to predicting time‐to‐recover from Australian forest fires

Global dominance of lianas over trees is driven by forest disturbance, climate and topography

Species gain and loss per degree Celsius

Putting seed traits into pellets: using seed mass data to improve seed encapsulation technology for native plant revegetation

Mapping the climate risk to urban forests at city scale

Wide climatic niche breadth and traits associated with climatic tolerance facilitate eucalypt occurrence in cities worldwide

Integrating functional traits into trophic rewilding science
