Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Ecosystem

Oceanography, Benthic zone, Sediment, Organic matter and Ecosystem are his primary areas of study. In general Oceanography, his work in Climate change and Deep sea is often linked to Sulfate linking many areas of study. His Benthic zone research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Seabed and Biogeochemical cycle.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Petroleum seep, Cold seep, Methane and Seafloor spreading. His work in the fields of Sediment–water interface overlaps with other areas such as Challenger Deep. His Organic matter study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Deposition and Total organic carbon.

His most cited work include:

  • Export of Algal Biomass from the Melting Arctic Sea Ice (268 citations)
  • Early diagenesis of organic matter from sediments of the eastern subtropical Atlantic: evidence from stable nitrogen and carbon isotopes (256 citations)
  • Seafloor oxygen consumption fuelled by methane from cold seeps (229 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Oceanography, Benthic zone, Sea ice, Sediment and Deep sea. His study looks at the relationship between Oceanography and topics such as Ecosystem, which overlap with Biodiversity. His study in the field of Benthos also crosses realms of Hadal zone.

His Arctic ice pack study, which is part of a larger body of work in Sea ice, is frequently linked to Remotely operated underwater vehicle, bridging the gap between disciplines. The study incorporates disciplines such as Environmental chemistry, Total organic carbon, Organic matter and Foraminifera in addition to Sediment. As part of one scientific family, Frank Wenzhöfer deals mainly with the area of Ecology, narrowing it down to issues related to the Chemosynthesis, and often Petroleum seep.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (62.01%)
  • Benthic zone (39.11%)
  • Sea ice (24.30%)

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

  • Oceanography (62.01%)
  • Benthic zone (39.11%)
  • Cove (8.10%)

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

Frank Wenzhöfer mostly deals with Oceanography, Benthic zone, Cove, Sediment and Ecosystem. Frank Wenzhöfer interconnects Nutrient and Fauna in the investigation of issues within Oceanography. Frank Wenzhöfer has researched Benthic zone in several fields, including Diatom, Deep sea, Water column and Biogeochemical cycle.

His Cove study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Glacial period, Mesocosm, Prokaryote and Biogeochemistry. Frank Wenzhöfer integrates Sediment with Hadal zone in his study. He focuses mostly in the field of Ecosystem, narrowing it down to topics relating to Disturbance and, in certain cases, Autotroph.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Benthic Carbon Mineralization in Hadal Trenches: Insights From In Situ Determination of Benthic Oxygen Consumption (25 citations)
  • Benthic Carbon Mineralization in Hadal Trenches: Insights From In Situ Determination of Benthic Oxygen Consumption (25 citations)
  • Degradation of macroalgal detritus in shallow coastal Antarctic sediments (16 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Ecosystem

Frank Wenzhöfer focuses on Benthic zone, Oceanography, Sediment, Hadal zone and Deep sea. His study in Benthic zone is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Biogeochemical cycle and Cove. His Oceanography research is mostly focused on the topic Seafloor spreading.

His studies deal with areas such as Structural basin, Deep sea mining and Habitat, Disturbance as well as Sediment. Deep sea and Ecosystem are frequently intertwined in his study. His work on Ecological niche as part of general Ecology research is frequently linked to Nitrosopumilus, bridging the gap between disciplines.
