Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • IUCN Red List
  • Habitat

Colin J. Limpus mainly focuses on Ecology, Turtle, Rookery, Sea turtle and Endangered species. His study in Climate change, Green sea turtle, Great barrier reef, Foraging and Coral reef is carried out as part of his studies in Ecology. His work deals with themes such as Zoology, Flipper, Mitochondrial DNA, Pelagic zone and Trophic level, which intersect with Turtle.

His Rookery study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Fishery and Natal homing. His Sea turtle research integrates issues from Habitat and Hatchling. His Endangered species research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Public health, Animal ecology, Food safety and Food chain.

His most cited work include:

  • GLOBAL POPULATION STRUCTURE AND NATURAL HISTORY OF THE GREEN TURTLE (CHELONIA MYDAS) IN TERMS OF MATRIARCHAL PHYLOGENY. (309 citations)
  • Trans-Pacific migrations of the loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) demonstrated with mitochondrial DNA markers. (207 citations)
  • Migration of green (Chelonia mydas) and loggerhead (Caretta caretta) turtles to and from eastern Australian rookeries (195 citations)

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

Colin J. Limpus mostly deals with Ecology, Turtle, Fishery, Zoology and Sea turtle. His research investigates the link between Ecology and topics such as Rookery that cross with problems in Marine conservation. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Endangered species, Testosterone, Fauna, Nesting season and Biogeography.

In the field of Fishery, his study on Pelagic zone overlaps with subjects such as Context. Colin J. Limpus has researched Zoology in several fields, including Turtle and Zoogeography. His Sea turtle study incorporates themes from Climate change and Threatened species.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (57.75%)
  • Turtle (49.30%)
  • Fishery (25.35%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Turtle (49.30%)
  • Ecology (57.75%)
  • Sea turtle (19.72%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Turtle, Ecology, Sea turtle, Fishery and Habitat. His research integrates issues of Zoology, Oceanography, Bay and Endangered species in his study of Turtle. Colin J. Limpus undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Ecology and Context in his work.

The concepts of his Sea turtle study are interwoven with issues in Embryo, Embryogenesis and Threatened species. Colin J. Limpus combines subjects such as Nesting season, Hatchery and Wildlife with his study of Fishery. His work on Home range as part of general Habitat study is frequently linked to Zoning, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Microplastic ingestion ubiquitous in marine turtles (80 citations)
  • Fidelity to foraging sites after long migrations. (22 citations)
  • Aligning habitat use with management zoning to reduce vessel strike of sea turtles (21 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • IUCN Red List
  • Habitat

His main research concerns Turtle, Habitat, Foraging, Ecology and Sea turtle. His work carried out in the field of Turtle brings together such families of science as Zoology and Environmental resource management. The Habitat study combines topics in areas such as Oceanography and Fishery.

His studies deal with areas such as Biological dispersal and Home range as well as Foraging. The Hatchling and Great barrier reef research Colin J. Limpus does as part of his general Ecology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Trait and Fidelity, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His work investigates the relationship between Sea turtle and topics such as Threatened species that intersect with problems in Barnacle.
