Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Wetland

Barry J. F. Biggs mainly focuses on Ecology, Periphyton, STREAMS, Biomass and Hydrology. His work on Habitat, Nutrient, Benthic zone and Benthic algae as part of general Ecology research is often related to Disturbance, thus linking different fields of science. His Nutrient research includes themes of Flood myth, Chlorophyll and Chlorophyll a.

His Periphyton research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Macrophyte, Abundance, Shear stress, Biota and Community structure. His Biomass study frequently links to related topics such as Diatom. Barry J. F. Biggs works mostly in the field of Hydrology, limiting it down to topics relating to River ecosystem and, in certain cases, Spatial ecology and Geographic information system.

His most cited work include:

  • Periphyton biomass dynamics in gravel bed rivers: the relative effects of flows and nutrients (375 citations)
  • 2 – Patterns in Benthic Algae of Streams (352 citations)
  • Eutrophication of streams and rivers: dissolved nutrient-chlorophyll relationships for benthic algae (352 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Periphyton, Hydrology, STREAMS and Biomass. His study in Benthic zone, Habitat, Macrophyte, Potamopyrgus antipodarum and Invertebrate falls under the purview of Ecology. Barry J. F. Biggs has researched Periphyton in several fields, including River ecosystem, Ecosystem, Plant community and Chlorophyll a.

His Hydrology research integrates issues from Ecoregion and Substrate. His research integrates issues of Cobble, Soil science, Vegetation and Seasonality in his study of STREAMS. His study in Biomass is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Botany, Algae, Disturbance, Riffle and Species diversity.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (60.22%)
  • Periphyton (46.24%)
  • Hydrology (33.33%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2019)?

  • Ecology (60.22%)
  • Habitat (21.51%)
  • Hydrology (33.33%)

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

His main research concerns Ecology, Habitat, Hydrology, Benthic zone and Didymosphenia geminata. Periphyton, Predation, Potamopyrgus, Algae and Potamopyrgus antipodarum are among the areas of Ecology where Barry J. F. Biggs concentrates his study. His Periphyton study improves the overall literature in Biomass.

His study looks at the relationship between Habitat and fields such as Biota, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. The various areas that Barry J. F. Biggs examines in his Hydrology study include Flow, Ecoregion, Carex and Substrate. His work on Benthos as part of general Benthic zone research is frequently linked to Disturbance, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Between 2004 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Linking scales of flow variability to lotic ecosystem structure and function (219 citations)
  • Short-term effects of elevated velocity and sediment abrasion on benthic algal communities (100 citations)
  • The non-indigenous diatom Didymosphenia geminata alters benthic communities in New Zealand rivers (94 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Wetland

Barry J. F. Biggs mainly investigates Ecology, Periphyton, Ecosystem, Hydrology and Habitat. His work on Hydrobiidae as part of general Ecology study is frequently connected to Spatial variability, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. Part of his project on Periphyton includes research on Algae and Biomass.

His research in Hydrology intersects with topics in Benthic zone and Ecoregion. The concepts of his Habitat study are interwoven with issues in Potamopyrgus, Potamopyrgus antipodarum, Predation, Predator and Gastropoda. In his research on the topic of River ecosystem, Invertebrate is strongly related with Trophic level.
