Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Donald F. Boesch focuses on Ecosystem, Eutrophication, Climate change, Ecology and Hypoxia. His research investigates the link between Ecosystem and topics such as Overfishing that cross with problems in Habitat destruction, Water Framework Directive, Adaptive management and Seagrass. In his study, Algal bloom is inextricably linked to Environmental protection, which falls within the broad field of Eutrophication.

His Climate change study combines topics in areas such as Meteorology and Environmental resource management. His Ecology study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Fishery. The various areas that Donald F. Boesch examines in his Benthic zone study include Phytoplankton, Bay and Pelagic zone.

His most cited work include:

  • Controlling Eutrophication: Nitrogen and Phosphorus (2107 citations)
  • Eutrophication of Chesapeake Bay: historical trends and ecological interactions (994 citations)
  • Climate Change Impacts on U.S. Coastal and Marine Ecosystems (582 citations)

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

Ecology, Oceanography, Ecosystem, Environmental resource management and Fishery are his primary areas of study. His study in the fields of Continental shelf, Estuary and Chesapeake bay under the domain of Oceanography overlaps with other disciplines such as Hypoxia. His work deals with themes such as Overfishing, Eutrophication and Environmental protection, which intersect with Ecosystem.

His Eutrophication research integrates issues from Watershed, Marine ecosystem and Water resource management. His work on Adaptive management as part of his general Environmental resource management study is frequently connected to Business, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. While the research belongs to areas of Benthic zone, he spends his time largely on the problem of Species richness, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Species diversity.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (29.27%)
  • Oceanography (25.61%)
  • Ecosystem (21.95%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2020)?

  • Climate change (14.63%)
  • Environmental planning (9.76%)
  • Ecosystem (21.95%)

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

Donald F. Boesch spends much of his time researching Climate change, Environmental planning, Ecosystem, Eutrophication and Oceanography. His Climate change research incorporates elements of Sea level, Climatology, Tropical cyclone and Environmental resource management. His study deals with a combination of Ecosystem and Corporate governance.

Donald F. Boesch combines subjects such as Adaptive management and Marine ecosystem with his study of Eutrophication. His studies in Marine ecosystem integrate themes in fields like Water quality and Agronomy. While working in this field, he studies both Oceanography and Hypoxia.

Between 2007 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Controlling Eutrophication: Nitrogen and Phosphorus (2107 citations)
  • Wicked Challenges at Land's End: Managing Coastal Vulnerability Under Climate Change (117 citations)
  • Nutrient Enrichment Drives Gulf of Mexico Hypoxia (52 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecosystem, Eutrophication, Climate change, Nutrient and Oceanography. His work on Marine ecosystem is typically connected to Nitrogen cycle, Phosphorus metabolism and Nitrogen fixation as part of general Ecosystem study, connecting several disciplines of science. His study in Eutrophication is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Adaptive management, Water quality and Agriculture.

His research on Climate change frequently links to adjacent areas such as Environmental resource management. His Nutrient research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Continental shelf and Invertebrate.
