Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Carbon dioxide
  • Microorganism

His primary scientific interests are in Estuary, Denitrification, Environmental chemistry, Ecology and Nitrate. His Denitrification study incorporates themes from Molecular biology, Oceanography, Gene and Nitrite reductase. His studies deal with areas such as Organic matter and Eutrophication as well as Oceanography.

His Environmental chemistry research integrates issues from Soil water, Salinity and Water column. The various areas that David B. Nedwell examines in his Ecology study include Euryarchaeota and Archaea. In his research on the topic of Nitrate, Chemostat, Bacterial growth, Mesophile and Psychrophile is strongly related with Nitrogen cycle.

His most cited work include:

  • Effect of low temperature on microbial growth: lowered affinity for substrates limits growth at low temperature (333 citations)
  • Identification of active methylotroph populations in an acidic forest soil by stable- isotope probing (244 citations)
  • Diversity and abundance of nitrate reductase genes (narG and napA), nitrite reductase genes (nirS and nrfA), and their transcripts in estuarine sediments. (220 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Environmental chemistry, Estuary, Nitrate, Ecology and Denitrification. His research integrates issues of Organic matter, Salt marsh, Soil water and Methanogenesis, Methane in his study of Environmental chemistry. His Estuary study combines topics in areas such as Seasonality, Salinity and Nutrient, Eutrophication.

His Nitrate research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Nitrification, Botany and Denitrifying bacteria. His Ecology research focuses on Archaea and how it connects with Halophile. David B. Nedwell usually deals with Denitrification and limits it to topics linked to Nitrous oxide and Greenhouse gas.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (47.22%)
  • Estuary (30.56%)
  • Nitrate (30.56%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2020)?

  • Estuary (30.56%)
  • Nitrate (30.56%)
  • Denitrification (22.22%)

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

His primary areas of study are Estuary, Nitrate, Denitrification, Environmental chemistry and Ecology. David B. Nedwell has included themes like Geochemistry, Nitrogen cycle, Botany and Sorting in his Estuary study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Salinity and Nitrification.

His research in Nitrate intersects with topics in Hydrology and Nutrient. His work carried out in the field of Denitrification brings together such families of science as Nitrous oxide, Benthic zone and Nitrite reductase. His Environmental chemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Soil water and Microbial population biology.

Between 2004 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Diversity and abundance of nitrate reductase genes (narG and napA), nitrite reductase genes (nirS and nrfA), and their transcripts in estuarine sediments. (220 citations)
  • Evaluation of quantitative polymerase chain reaction-based approaches for determining gene copy and gene transcript numbers in environmental samples. (184 citations)
  • Changes in Benthic Denitrification, Nitrate Ammonification, and Anammox Process Rates and Nitrate and Nitrite Reductase Gene Abundances along an Estuarine Nutrient Gradient (the Colne Estuary, United Kingdom) (169 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Carbon dioxide
  • Microorganism

David B. Nedwell mostly deals with Nitrate, Botany, Denitrification, Anammox and Estuary. His Nitrate study often links to related topics such as Environmental chemistry. His study in Environmental chemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Water column, Oceanography, Benthic zone and Nitrifying bacteria.

His Botany study deals with Nitrification intersecting with Archaea, Soil water, Anaerobic oxidation of methane and Alder. His Denitrification study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Nitrite reductase and Nitrate reductase. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Estuary, Nitrite is strongly linked to Nitrogen cycle.
