Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Sampling

His scientific interests lie mostly in Moss, Environmental chemistry, Biomonitoring, Sampling and Contamination. His Moss research is mostly focused on the topic Pseudoscleropodium purum. His Environmental chemistry study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Mineralogy.

J.A. Fernández works mostly in the field of Biomonitoring, limiting it down to topics relating to Environmental monitoring and, in certain cases, Mediterranean climate, as a part of the same area of interest. His Sampling research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Soil science, Environmental engineering and Pollution. His Contamination study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Ecotoxicology and Air quality index.

His most cited work include:

  • Sampling optimization at the sampling-site scale for monitoring atmospheric deposition using moss chemistry (44 citations)
  • Best options for the exposure of traditional and innovative moss bags: A systematic evaluation in three European countries (36 citations)
  • Definition and Number of Subsamples for Using Mosses as Biomonitors of Airborne Trace Elements (36 citations)

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

J.A. Fernández focuses on Environmental chemistry, Biomonitoring, Moss, Contamination and Pollution. The Environmental chemistry study combines topics in areas such as Particulates and Botany. The study incorporates disciplines such as Fucus vesiculosus, Pollutant and Heavy metals in addition to Biomonitoring.

His Moss study incorporates themes from Sampling and Air pollution. His Contamination research incorporates elements of Sphagnum denticulatum, Elution and Air quality index. His research in Bioconcentration tackles topics such as Mineralogy which are related to areas like Hypnum cupressiforme and Scleropodium purum.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (68.67%)
  • Biomonitoring (61.45%)
  • Moss (56.63%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Environmental chemistry (68.67%)
  • Biomonitoring (61.45%)
  • Moss (56.63%)

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

His main research concerns Environmental chemistry, Biomonitoring, Moss, Pollution and Fucus vesiculosus. J.A. Fernández regularly ties together related areas like Contamination in his Environmental chemistry studies. His research integrates issues of Water quality and Marine pollution in his study of Biomonitoring.

His study looks at the relationship between Moss and fields such as Pollutant, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His work in Pollution tackles topics such as Deposition which are related to areas like Metal deposition, Particulates and Air sampler. His work on Metal contamination as part of general Heavy metals study is frequently linked to Human health, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Testing a novel biotechnological passive sampler for monitoring atmospheric PAH pollution (8 citations)
  • Can proteomics contribute to biomonitoring of aquatic pollution? A critical review. (4 citations)
  • Sampling optimization for biomonitoring metal contamination with marine macroalgae. (4 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Ecosystem

His primary scientific interests are in Environmental chemistry, Biomonitoring, Pollution, Marine pollution and Deposition. Many of his Environmental chemistry research pursuits overlap with Metaproteomics, Eutrophication and δ15N. His Metaproteomics research overlaps with other disciplines such as Mussel, Sentinel species and Proteome.

His work in Eutrophication incorporates the disciplines of Bioaccumulation, Moss, Trout, Aquaculture and Fontinalis antipyretica. His δ15N research incorporates Sampling, Spatial variability, Variogram, Marine ecosystem and Fucus vesiculosus. His studies in Deposition integrate themes in fields like Air sampler and Particulates.
