2015 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Habitat

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Marsh, Salt marsh, Ecosystem and Habitat. Ecology connects with themes related to Environmental resource management in his study. The Marsh study combines topics in areas such as Vegetation and Phragmites.

His Salt marsh research incorporates elements of Storm, Natural hazard, Wetland and Accretion. His Ecosystem services and Marine ecosystem investigations are all subjects of Ecosystem research. His Ecosystem services research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Coral reef, Ecosystem management and Restoration ecology.

His most cited work include:

  • The value of estuarine and coastal ecosystem services (2271 citations)
  • A blueprint for blue carbon: toward an improved understanding of the role of vegetated coastal habitats in sequestering CO2 (1370 citations)
  • Coastal Ecosystem-Based Management with Nonlinear Ecological Functions and Values (673 citations)

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

Brian R. Silliman mainly focuses on Ecology, Ecosystem, Salt marsh, Habitat and Marsh. His study involves Foundation species, Biodiversity, Seagrass, Spartina alterniflora and Predation, a branch of Ecology. Brian R. Silliman combines subjects such as Coral reef and Environmental resource management with his study of Ecosystem.

His studies deal with areas such as Spartina, Biomass, Littoraria irrorata, Grazing and Wetland as well as Salt marsh. His work in Habitat tackles topics such as Fishery which are related to areas like Intertidal zone. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Productivity and Marsh.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (82.04%)
  • Ecosystem (33.98%)
  • Salt marsh (32.52%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Ecology (82.04%)
  • Ecosystem (33.98%)
  • Habitat (23.79%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Ecosystem, Habitat, Salt marsh and Restoration ecology. His study in Ecology, Seagrass, Predation, Trophic level and Reef falls within the category of Ecology. Brian R. Silliman interconnects Biodiversity, Climate change and Environmental resource management in the investigation of issues within Ecosystem.

His Habitat study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biomass, Marine ecosystem and Fishery. His work carried out in the field of Salt marsh brings together such families of science as Invasive species, Vegetation, Marsh, Wetland and Grazing. His Restoration ecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Estuary and Apex predator.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The future of Blue Carbon science (91 citations)
  • Climate Change, Human Impacts, and Coastal Ecosystems in the Anthropocene (45 citations)
  • Harnessing Positive Species Interactions to Enhance Coastal Wetland Restoration (23 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Habitat

Brian R. Silliman focuses on Ecology, Ecosystem, Restoration ecology, Habitat and Disturbance. His work deals with themes such as Citizen science and Photo identification, which intersect with Ecology. His studies in Ecosystem integrate themes in fields like Climate change, Salt marsh and Marsh.

His Habitat study incorporates themes from Subtropics, Range, Abundance, Biomass and Predation. The various areas that Brian R. Silliman examines in his Disturbance study include Resource, Ecosystem services, Vegetation and Coastal erosion, Erosion. His Seagrass research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Species richness and Biodiversity, Ecosystem engineer, Foundation species.
