Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Fishery
  • Ecosystem

Adriaan D. Rijnsdorp mainly investigates Fishery, Ecology, Fishing, North sea and Pleuronectes. His Fishery research incorporates themes from Oceanography and Flatfish. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Ecology, Mediterranean Basin, Mediterranean climate and Thornback ray is strongly linked to F-statistics.

His Fishing study incorporates themes from Range and Ecosystem. His research integrates issues of Soleá and Cod fisheries in his study of North sea. He interconnects Fecundity and Reproduction in the investigation of issues within Pleuronectes.

His most cited work include:

  • Ecology: managing evolving fish stocks. (485 citations)
  • Resolving the effect of climate change on fish populations (443 citations)
  • Reconsidering the Consequences of Selective Fisheries (324 citations)

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

Adriaan D. Rijnsdorp mostly deals with Fishery, Fishing, North sea, Ecology and Oceanography. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Pleuronectes and Flatfish. His Flatfish research includes elements of Juvenile and Abundance.

His work carried out in the field of Fishing brings together such families of science as Benthos and Habitat. His North sea study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Discards and Forestry. His study in Ecology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Fecundity and Zoology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Fishery (67.36%)
  • Fishing (38.02%)
  • North sea (32.64%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Fishery (67.36%)
  • Fishing (38.02%)
  • Benthic zone (15.70%)

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

Adriaan D. Rijnsdorp mostly deals with Fishery, Fishing, Benthic zone, Trawling and Bottom trawling. His research in Fishery intersects with topics in Habitat and North sea. Adriaan D. Rijnsdorp has included themes like Pleuronectes and Maximum sustainable yield in his North sea study.

His Fishing study is concerned with Ecology in general. In his work, Species richness, Environmental variation and Invertebrate is strongly intertwined with Biota, which is a subfield of Trawling. His Bottom trawling research incorporates themes from Biomass, Continental shelf, Oceanography and Benthos.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Estimating seabed pressure from demersal trawls, seines, and dredges based on gear design and dimensions (111 citations)
  • Global analysis of depletion and recovery of seabed biota after bottom trawling disturbance (108 citations)
  • The footprint of bottom trawling in European waters: distribution, intensity, and seabed integrity (107 citations)
