What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Photosynthesis
- Ecosystem
His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Botany, Benthic zone, Oceanography and Photosynthesis.
Ecology is represented through his Macrophyte, Algae, Littoral zone, Nutrient and Habitat research.
His study in Benthic zone is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Microbial mat, Biomass, Ice shelf, Water column and Plankton.
His research in Water column tackles topics such as Atmospheric sciences which are related to areas like Vanda, Photosynthetically active radiation and Downwelling.
His work carried out in the field of Oceanography brings together such families of science as Phytoplankton, Benthic primary production and Freshwater ecosystem.
The Photosynthesis study combines topics in areas such as Environmental chemistry, Desiccation and Respiration.
His most cited work include:
- Diversity within cyanobacterial mat communities in variable salinity meltwater ponds of McMurdo Ice Shelf, Antarctica (214 citations)
- Relationships between water level fluctuations and vegetation diversity in shallow water of New Zealand lakes (147 citations)
- ANTARCTIC AQUATIC ECOSYSTEMS AS HABITATS FOR PHYTOPLANKTON (117 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Ian Hawes spends much of his time researching Ecology, Oceanography, Microbial mat, Photosynthesis and Benthic zone.
His Oceanography research incorporates elements of Meltwater and Phytoplankton.
The various areas that Ian Hawes examines in his Microbial mat study include Vanda and Stromatolite.
His Photosynthesis study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Environmental chemistry and Atmospheric sciences.
Ian Hawes works mostly in the field of Benthic zone, limiting it down to topics relating to Water column and, in certain cases, Anoxic waters, Sediment and Nutrient, as a part of the same area of interest.
Ian Hawes works mostly in the field of Biomass, limiting it down to concerns involving Trophic state index and, occasionally, Littoral zone.
