What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Ecosystem
- Biodiversity
J. David Allan focuses on Ecology, Ecosystem, Habitat, Environmental resource management and Land use. His studies in Ecosystem integrate themes in fields like Environmental monitoring, Biodiversity, Marine spatial planning and Recreation. His research integrates issues of Ecotone, Species richness, Competition and STREAMS in his study of Habitat.
His Environmental resource management study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Floodplain restoration and Flood pulse concept. His Land use study incorporates themes from Hydrology, Watershed, Drainage basin, Riparian zone and Index of biological integrity. His research in Drainage basin tackles topics such as Surface runoff which are related to areas like Wetland.
His most cited work include:
- THE NATURAL FLOW REGIME. A PARADIGM FOR RIVER CONSERVATION AND RESTORATION (4697 citations)
- Landscapes and Riverscapes: The Influence of Land Use on Stream Ecosystems (2339 citations)
- Stream Ecology: Structure and Function of Running Waters (2279 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Hydrology, Ecosystem, STREAMS and Watershed. His study in the field of Drainage basin and Surface runoff also crosses realms of Phosphorus. When carried out as part of a general Ecosystem research project, his work on Ecosystem services is frequently linked to work in Energy source, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
J. David Allan combines subjects such as Streamflow and Substrate with his study of STREAMS. His Watershed research includes themes of Environmental resource management, Tributary, Large woody debris, Water quality and Eutrophication. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Stream restoration and Water supply.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (55.45%)
- Hydrology (27.27%)
- Ecosystem (23.64%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2021)?
- Ecology (55.45%)
- Ecosystem (23.64%)
- Hydrology (27.27%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Ecosystem, Hydrology, Watershed and Drainage basin. Many of his studies on Ecology apply to Fishery as well. His Ecosystem research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Restoration ecology and Biogeochemistry.
The Hydrology study which covers Nutrient that intersects with Ecozone, Algae and Pelagic zone. J. David Allan has researched Watershed in several fields, including Land use and Tributary. He works mostly in the field of Drainage basin, limiting it down to topics relating to Fertilizer and, in certain cases, Wetland, as a part of the same area of interest.
Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Assessing and addressing the re-eutrophication of Lake Erie: Central basin hypoxia (311 citations)
- Joint analysis of stressors and ecosystem services to enhance restoration effectiveness (238 citations)
- Restoring aquatic ecosystem connectivity requires expanding inventories of both dams and road crossings (127 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Ecosystem
- Biodiversity
J. David Allan mostly deals with Hydrology, Ecosystem, Soil and Water Assessment Tool, Nutrient and Hypoxia. Specifically, his work in Hydrology is concerned with the study of Wetland. His work carried out in the field of Ecosystem brings together such families of science as Restoration ecology, Recreation and Environmental planning.
His research investigates the connection with Soil and Water Assessment Tool and areas like Climate change which intersect with concerns in Water quality. His Nutrient research integrates issues from Drainage basin, Watershed, Drainage divide and Fertilizer. Among his Hypoxia studies, there is a synthesis of other scientific areas such as Ecology, Habitat, Predation, Fishery and Phytoplankton biomass.
