What is she best known for?
The fields of study she is best known for:
- Ecology
- Predation
- Ecosystem
Carolyn W. Burns focuses on Ecology, Daphnia, Zooplankton, Branchiopoda and Phytoplankton.
Her work in Copepod, Crustacean, Predation, Eutrophication and Productivity are all subfields of Ecology research.
Her study in Daphnia is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cladocera, Animal science and Body size.
Her studies in Zooplankton integrate themes in fields like Trophic level, Aquatic ecosystem and Herbivore.
Her Trophic level research includes elements of Boeckella and Trophic state index.
As a part of the same scientific study, she usually deals with the Phytoplankton, concentrating on Plankton and frequently concerns with Patch dynamics, Aquatic environment and Water column.
Her most cited work include:
- THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN BODY SIZE OF FILTER‐FEEDING CLADOCERA AND THE MAXIMUM SIZE OF PARTICLE INGESTED (524 citations)
- The Size-Efficiency Hypothesis and the Size Structure of Zooplankton Communities (462 citations)
- RELATION BETWEEN FILTERING RATE, TEMPERATURE, AND BODY SIZE IN FOUR SPECIES OF DAPHNIA (256 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Her primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Daphnia, Zooplankton, Boeckella and Copepod.
Her Ecology study frequently involves adjacent topics like Zoology.
Her studies deal with areas such as Branchiopoda, Cladocera and Botany as well as Daphnia.
Her research investigates the connection with Zooplankton and areas like Trophic level which intersect with concerns in Seasonality.
Her Copepod study also includes
- Salinity which is related to area like Estuary and Ecosystem,
- Rotifer and related Notonectidae.
In Phytoplankton, Carolyn W. Burns works on issues like Eutrophication, which are connected to Ecological succession.
She most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (80.87%)
- Daphnia (32.17%)
- Zooplankton (28.70%)
What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2004-2021)?
- Ecology (80.87%)
- Daphnia (32.17%)
- Phytoplankton (20.87%)
In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:
Her main research concerns Ecology, Daphnia, Phytoplankton, Environmental science and Plankton.
Her study in Ecology focuses on Eutrophication, Biomass, Ecosystem, Predation and Estuary.
The various areas that Carolyn W. Burns examines in her Daphnia study include Taxon, Boeckella and DNA barcoding.
Her Boeckella research incorporates elements of Botany and Zooplankton.
Her work carried out in the field of Zooplankton brings together such families of science as Environmental chemistry, Carotenoid and Turbidity.
Her Phytoplankton study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Trophic level, Diversity index, Lake ecosystem and Phenology.
Between 2004 and 2021, her most popular works were:
- Linking Land-use, Water Body Type and Water Quality in Southern New Zealand (74 citations)
- A comparison of the trophic transfer of fatty acids in freshwater plankton by cladocerans and calanoid copepods (59 citations)
- Photoprotective compounds in weakly and strongly pigmented copepods and co‐occurring cladocerans (55 citations)
In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Ecosystem
- Predation
Ecology, Phytoplankton, Daphnia, Boeckella and Zooplankton are her primary areas of study.
Her Ecology study focuses mostly on Eutrophication, Rare species, Species evenness, Wetland and Tussock grassland.
Her Phytoplankton research integrates issues from Brackish water, Species richness, Ecosystem, Trophic level and Dominance.
Her research combines Botany and Daphnia.
Her Boeckella research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Environmental chemistry, Turbidity and Plankton.
Her work in Zooplankton is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Seston.
