Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Algae
  • Bacteria

Ecology, Plankton, Grazing, Phytoplankton and Bacterioplankton are his primary areas of study. The various areas that he examines in his Ecology study include Environmental chemistry and Species complex. His Plankton research integrates issues from Phototroph, Evolutionary biology, Daphnia and DNA sequencing.

His Grazing research incorporates themes from Branchiopoda, Cladocera, Daphnia galeata, Bacterial growth and Microbial loop. The concepts of his Phytoplankton study are interwoven with issues in Trophic level, Protist, Oceanography and Food chain. His Algae study combines topics in areas such as Ciliate and Acartia tonsa, Copepod.

His most cited work include:

  • The Marine Microbial Eukaryote Transcriptome Sequencing Project (MMETSP): Illuminating the Functional Diversity of Eukaryotic Life in the Oceans through Transcriptome Sequencing (601 citations)
  • Trophic transfer of fatty acids, sterols, and a triterpenoid alcohol between bacteria, a ciliate, and the copepod Acartia tonsa (216 citations)
  • Planktonic community structure determines the fate of bacterial production in a temperate lake (181 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Ciliate, Plankton, Oceanography and Phytoplankton. Biodiversity, Biogeography, Estuary, Grazing and Photic zone are the subjects of his Ecology studies. His research in Ciliate intersects with topics in Zoology and Protozoa, Botany.

His work focuses on many connections between Plankton and other disciplines, such as Food web, that overlap with his field of interest in Pelagic zone. His work on CTD, Cruise and Outflow as part of general Oceanography study is frequently linked to Plume, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His Phytoplankton research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Microcosm, Copepod, Zooplankton, Biomass and Chlorophyll a.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (45.54%)
  • Ciliate (28.71%)
  • Plankton (21.78%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2020)?

  • Ecology (45.54%)
  • Biodiversity (11.88%)
  • Ciliate (28.71%)

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

George B. McManus mostly deals with Ecology, Biodiversity, Ciliate, Biogeography and Evolutionary biology. As part of his studies on Ecology, George B. McManus often connects relevant areas like Protist. His Ciliate research includes elements of Zoology, Phytoplankton, Mixotroph and Botany.

His Biogeography research focuses on Phylogeography and how it connects with Niche differentiation, Transect, Environmental gradient, Geomicrobiology and Microbial ecology. His work in Evolutionary biology addresses issues such as Tintinnid, which are connected to fields such as DNA. His work deals with themes such as Trophic level, Phototroph and Ecosystem, which intersect with Plankton.

Between 2015 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Defining Planktonic Protist Functional Groups on Mechanisms for Energy and Nutrient Acquisition: Incorporation of Diverse Mixotrophic Strategies (147 citations)
  • Patterns and processes in microbial biogeography: do molecules and morphologies give the same answers? (42 citations)
  • The diversity and biogeography of abundant and rare intertidal marine microeukaryotes explained by environment and dispersal limitation (40 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Algae
  • Ecosystem

His main research concerns Ecology, Biogeography, Biodiversity, Plankton and Evolutionary biology. His Ecology research includes themes of Phylogenetics and Geomicrobiology. His studies in Biogeography integrate themes in fields like Abundance, Microbial ecology, Environmental biotechnology, Niche differentiation and Phylogeography.

George B. McManus interconnects Productivity, Photic zone and Marine ecosystem, Ecosystem in the investigation of issues within Biodiversity. In his research, Phytoplankton, Food chain, Protist and Trophic level is intimately related to Phototroph, which falls under the overarching field of Plankton. The Evolutionary biology study combines topics in areas such as Tintinnid, DNA, Ribosomal DNA, GenBank and Systematics.
