Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Ecosystem

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Arctic, Ursus maritimus, Sea ice and Phoca. His Ecology research integrates issues from Evolutionary biology and Population size. The various areas that he examines in his Evolutionary biology study include Gene flow and Genetic variation.

His Arctic research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Environmental chemistry, Marine ecosystem, Biota and Marine biology. His work deals with themes such as Zoology, Ursus, Biomonitoring, Beluga Whale and Beaufort sea, which intersect with Ursus maritimus. The Sea ice study combines topics in areas such as Global warming, Climate change and Bay.

His most cited work include:

  • Microsatellite analysis of population structure in Canadian polar bears (1730 citations)
  • Microsatellite analysis of population structure in Canadian polar bears (1730 citations)
  • Ecological Dynamics Across the Arctic Associated with Recent Climate Change (856 citations)

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

His main research concerns Ecology, Ursus maritimus, Sea ice, Arctic and Bay. His study in Ecology concentrates on Climate change, Habitat, Phoca, Erignathus barbatus and Foraging. Ian Stirling works mostly in the field of Ursus maritimus, limiting it down to topics relating to Reproduction and, in certain cases, Litter, as a part of the same area of interest.

His Sea ice research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Global warming and Fishery. His studies in Arctic integrate themes in fields like Environmental chemistry and Genetic structure. The study incorporates disciplines such as Range, Physical geography and Mark and recapture in addition to Bay.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (69.77%)
  • Ursus maritimus (63.57%)
  • Sea ice (43.02%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2021)?

  • Ursus maritimus (63.57%)
  • Ecology (69.77%)
  • Sea ice (43.02%)

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

His primary areas of study are Ursus maritimus, Ecology, Sea ice, Arctic and Fishery. His work carried out in the field of Ursus maritimus brings together such families of science as Zoology, Caniformia, Erignathus barbatus, Pusa hispida and Adipose tissue. Ian Stirling combines subjects such as Gene flow and Population size with his study of Ecology.

His Sea ice research integrates issues from Habitat, Bay and Predation. His research in Arctic tackles topics such as Trophic level which are related to areas like Marine ecosystem. Reproductive history is closely connected to Reproduction in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Fishery.

Between 2009 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Ecological Consequences of Sea-Ice Decline (327 citations)
  • What are the toxicological effects of mercury in Arctic biota (209 citations)
  • Survival and breeding of polar bears in the southern Beaufort Sea in relation to sea ice (195 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Habitat

Ian Stirling mostly deals with Ecology, Ursus maritimus, Sea ice, Arctic and Climate change. His Ecology study incorporates themes from Mercury and Gene flow. His Ursus maritimus research also works with subjects such as

  • Predation which intersects with area such as Fishery,
  • Marine mammal and related Blubber and Isotope analysis.

Ian Stirling has researched Sea ice in several fields, including Productivity, Continental shelf, Population size and Habitat destruction. His studies deal with areas such as Global warming, Population mixing and Ecological dynamics as well as Arctic. His Climate change study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Arctic ice pack, Vital rates, Habitat and Abundance.
