Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • IUCN Red List

Chris Wilcox mainly investigates Marine debris, Debris, Ecology, Plastic pollution and Fishery. Marine debris and Habitat are frequently intertwined in his study. His Debris research is within the category of Oceanography.

His research on Plastic pollution concerns the broader Microplastics. While the research belongs to areas of Fishery, Chris Wilcox spends his time largely on the problem of Predation, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Jellyfish and Population size. His work investigates the relationship between Great Pacific garbage patch and topics such as Manta trawl that intersect with problems in Tonne.

His most cited work include:

  • Plastic waste inputs from land into the ocean (3260 citations)
  • State-space models of individual animal movement. (632 citations)
  • A global inventory of small floating plastic debris (551 citations)

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

Fishery, Ecology, Marine debris, Fishing and Debris are his primary areas of study. His Fishery study incorporates themes from Billfish and Shearwater, Seabird. His Ecology study deals with Extinction intersecting with Population size and Conservation biology.

His research investigates the connection with Marine debris and areas like Plastic pollution which intersect with concerns in Sink and Marine ecosystem. His Fishing research includes themes of Natural resource economics and Environmental resource management. His Debris research incorporates themes from Ingestion and Ocean current.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Fishery (30.46%)
  • Ecology (28.74%)
  • Marine debris (24.14%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Marine debris (24.14%)
  • Plastic pollution (14.94%)
  • Debris (15.52%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Marine debris, Plastic pollution, Debris, Fishing and Fishery. The concepts of his Marine debris study are interwoven with issues in Scale, Environmental protection, Foraging, Ocean current and Litter. In Plastic pollution, Chris Wilcox works on issues like Habitat, which are connected to Ecological assessment and Biodiversity.

His Debris research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sink, Shore, Pollution, Seabird and Ingestion. His Fisheries management study in the realm of Fishing interacts with subjects such as Livelihood. He focuses mostly in the field of Fishery, narrowing it down to topics relating to Risk assessment and, in certain cases, Pelagic zone and Large marine ecosystem.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Toward the integrated marine debris observing system (72 citations)
  • A quantitative analysis linking sea turtle mortality and plastic debris ingestion (51 citations)
  • A global mitigation hierarchy for nature conservation (50 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • IUCN Red List

Chris Wilcox mostly deals with Marine debris, Debris, Plastic pollution, Ingestion and Fishing. His Marine debris research incorporates elements of Ecology, Litter and Citizen science. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cash, Shore and Environmental protection.

His Plastic pollution study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Marine pollution and Sink. His Ingestion study combines topics in areas such as Zoology, Procellariiformes, Seabird and Threatened species. His Fishing research entails a greater understanding of Fishery.
