Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Ecology
  • Paleontology

Andrew J. Wheeler mainly focuses on Oceanography, Coral, Madrepora oculata, Lophelia and Ecology. Andrew J. Wheeler works in the field of Oceanography, namely Reef. Specifically, his work in Coral is concerned with the study of Resilience of coral reefs.

The Madrepora oculata study combines topics in areas such as Paleontology, Sediment transport and Deep-water coral. His Lophelia research includes themes of Sediment, Mineral resource classification and Benthic zone. His research on Ecology focuses in particular on Coral reef.

His most cited work include:

  • Reefs of the Deep: The Biology and Geology of Cold-Water Coral Ecosystems (672 citations)
  • Cold-water Corals: The Biology and Geology of Deep-Sea Coral Habitats. (404 citations)
  • Cold-Water Corals: List of topic boxes and case studies (229 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Oceanography, Coral, Paleontology, Seabed and Sediment. His Oceanography study combines topics in areas such as Porcupine, Sedimentary rock and Habitat. Andrew J. Wheeler combines subjects such as Reef, Coral reef and Facies with his study of Coral.

The Glacial period, Trough and Sedimentology research Andrew J. Wheeler does as part of his general Paleontology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Irish, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. He has included themes like Structural basin and Side-scan sonar, Sonar in his Seabed study. His research investigates the link between Sediment and topics such as Bathymetry that cross with problems in Bedform and Geomorphology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (54.84%)
  • Coral (27.74%)
  • Paleontology (25.16%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Oceanography (54.84%)
  • Coral (27.74%)
  • Ice sheet (9.68%)

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

Andrew J. Wheeler focuses on Oceanography, Coral, Ice sheet, Habitat and Paleontology. Oceanography and Canyon are frequently intertwined in his study. His Coral research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Marine protected area, Sediment, Seabed, Facies and Reef.

His Ice sheet research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Sedimentary rock, Geotechnical engineering and Quaternary. His Habitat research integrates issues from Rubble, Photogrammetry, Biodiversity and Coral reef. His work on Glacial period, Moraine and Deglaciation as part of general Paleontology study is frequently connected to Tunnel valley, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Effectiveness of a deep-sea cold-water coral Marine Protected Area, following eight years of fisheries closure (70 citations)
  • High resolution mapping of a cold water coral mound (30 citations)
  • High-resolution facies zonation within a cold-water coral mound: The case of the Piddington Mound, Porcupine Seabight, NE Atlantic (19 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Ecology
  • Paleontology

Coral, Oceanography, Habitat, Facies and Seabed are his primary areas of study. Andrew J. Wheeler has researched Coral in several fields, including Marine conservation, Fishery and Trawling. His Oceanography research incorporates elements of Sedimentary rock and Sedimentology.

His study in Habitat is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Rubble and Current. The various areas that Andrew J. Wheeler examines in his Facies study include Spatial organization, Outcrop and Marine biology. His research in Seabed intersects with topics in Reef, Lophelia, Madrepora oculata and Atoll.
