Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Wetland

Ecology, Environmental chemistry, Water pollution, Ecotoxicology and Pollutant are his primary areas of study. In the field of Ecology, his study on Aquatic ecosystem, Environmental monitoring and Ecosystem overlaps with subjects such as Stressor and Context. The various areas that he examines in his Environmental chemistry study include Benthic zone and Ceriodaphnia dubia.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Water quality, Bioassay and Toxicology in addition to Water pollution. G. Allen Burton combines subjects such as Wetland, Aquatic toxicology and Wildlife with his study of Ecotoxicology. His Aquatic toxicology study combines topics in areas such as Daphnia magna, Restoration ecology and Bioindicator.

His most cited work include:

  • Handbook of Ecotoxicology (1020 citations)
  • Assessing the toxicity of freshwater sediments (304 citations)
  • Sediment Toxicity Assessment (288 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Environmental chemistry, Ecology, Hyalella azteca, Benthic zone and Bioavailability. His Environmental chemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Daphnia magna and Contamination. His Ecosystem, Aquatic ecosystem, Aquatic toxicology and Plankton study in the realm of Ecology connects with subjects such as Stressor.

His Aquatic ecosystem study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Water quality, Surface runoff, Pollutant and Environmental resource management. His research integrates issues of Hydrology and Invertebrate in his study of Benthic zone. His research in Bioavailability intersects with topics in Suspended solids and Dissolved organic carbon.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (48.68%)
  • Ecology (25.00%)
  • Hyalella azteca (17.76%)

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

  • Environmental chemistry (48.68%)
  • Ecology (25.00%)
  • Hyalella azteca (17.76%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Environmental chemistry, Ecology, Hyalella azteca, Water quality and Environmental resource management. His Environmental chemistry research integrates issues from Bioassay, Chronic toxicity and Bioavailability. His Chronic toxicity study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Metal toxicity and Aquatic toxicology.

His study on Plankton, Ecosystem, Zooplankton and Aquatic ecosystem is often connected to GenBank as part of broader study in Ecology. His research in Water quality focuses on subjects like Water column, which are connected to Test method and Environmental hazard. His research on Environmental resource management also deals with topics like

  • Watershed management, Ranking and Urban runoff most often made with reference to Land use,
  • Environmental quality that intertwine with fields like Agriculture, Stream restoration, Surface runoff and Restoration ecology.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Stressor Exposures Determine Risk: So, Why Do Fellow Scientists Continue To Focus on Superficial Microplastics Risk? (51 citations)
  • Zooplankton Community Profiling in a Eutrophic Freshwater Ecosystem-Lake Tai Basin by DNA Metabarcoding. (25 citations)
  • Biogeochemical controls on the speciation and aquatic toxicity of vanadium and other metals in sediments from a river reservoir (20 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

His primary areas of investigation include Environmental chemistry, Ecology, Ecotoxicology, Biogeochemistry and Focus. His work on Zooplankton, Ecosystem and DNA barcoding as part of general Ecology study is frequently linked to Ion semiconductor sequencing and GenBank, bridging the gap between disciplines. In his study, Keystone species, Pollution, Biological dispersal, Ectotherm and Water quality is strongly linked to Chemical contaminants, which falls under the umbrella field of Ecotoxicology.

His studies deal with areas such as Microcosm, Speciation and Biogeochemical cycle as well as Biogeochemistry. His research in Speciation intersects with topics in Daphnia magna, Aquatic toxicology, Wetland and Dissolution. His Ecosystem services study which covers Environmental resource management that intersects with Risk analysis, Risk management plan, IT risk management and Land use.
