Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Habitat

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Macrophyte, Limnology, Eutrophication and Plankton. Habitat, Dominance, Zooplankton, Phytoplankton and Macrofossil are among the areas of Ecology where the researcher is concentrating his efforts. His studies in Habitat integrate themes in fields like Trophic level and Climate change.

His work focuses on many connections between Dominance and other disciplines, such as Diatom, that overlap with his field of interest in Plant community. His Macrophyte study incorporates themes from Trophic cascade, Food web, Ecosystem and Species richness. He interconnects Biodiversity and Fragilaria in the investigation of issues within Ecosystem.

His most cited work include:

  • DOES THE FISH-INVERTEBRATE-PERIPHYTON CASCADE PRECIPITATE PLANT LOSS IN SHALLOW LAKES? (210 citations)
  • Zooplankton as indicators in lakes: a scientific-based plea for including zooplankton in the ecological quality assessment of lakes according to the European Water Framework Directive (WFD) (184 citations)
  • Looking forward through the past: Identification of 50 priority research questions in palaeoecology (148 citations)

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

Ecology, Macrophyte, Eutrophication, Habitat and Biodiversity are his primary areas of study. His research combines Sediment and Ecology. While the research belongs to areas of Macrophyte, he spends his time largely on the problem of Benthic zone, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Testate amoebae.

His research investigates the connection between Eutrophication and topics such as Diatom that intersect with issues in Climate change. The various areas that Carl D. Sayer examines in his Habitat study include Trophic level and Water Framework Directive. His Biodiversity study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Invertebrate, Woodland and Species diversity.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (57.69%)
  • Macrophyte (33.97%)
  • Eutrophication (19.23%)

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

  • Ecology (57.69%)
  • Zoology (8.33%)
  • Biodiversity (14.10%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Zoology, Biodiversity, Macrophyte and Fishery. His study in Species richness, Paleolimnology, Spatial heterogeneity, Agriculture and Pollinator is done as part of Ecology. In his work, Threatened species, Environmental DNA and Fish growth is strongly intertwined with Carassius carassius, which is a subfield of Zoology.

Carl D. Sayer has researched Biodiversity in several fields, including Invertebrate and Habitat. His work deals with themes such as Propagule, Agricultural land, Species diversity and Eutrophication, which intersect with Macrophyte. His research in Fishery intersects with topics in Population demographics and Seasonality.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Prospects and challenges of environmental DNA (eDNA) monitoring in freshwater ponds (60 citations)
  • Development and application of environmental DNA surveillance for the threatened crucian carp (Carassius carassius) (24 citations)
  • Pond management enhances the local abundance and species richness of farmland bird communities (17 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Habitat

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Species richness, Zoology, Habitat and Range. His work in Nocturnal, Ecological network, Pollinator, Pollination and Lepidoptera genitalia is related to Ecology. His Species richness research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Abundance and Insect.

The Zoology study combines topics in areas such as Myxozoa, Myxosporea and Salmonidae. His Habitat research integrates issues from Macrophyte, Biodiversity, Land use, Vegetation and Woodland. Carl D. Sayer combines subjects such as Genetic diversity, Crucian carp, Carassius carassius, Threatened species and Species detection with his study of Range.
