2018 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • Bacteria

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Nitrogen fixation, Cyanobacteria, Botany and Trichodesmium. The study incorporates disciplines such as Oceanography, Crocosphaera watsonii and Nitrogen cycle in addition to Ecology. His Nitrogen fixation research incorporates elements of Denitrification and Microbial ecology.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Microorganism, Carbon fixation and Gene, Metabolic pathway. His research in Botany intersects with topics in Photic zone, Symbiosis, N2 Fixation and Microbial mat. His work deals with themes such as Abundance and Trichodesmium erythraeum, which intersect with Trichodesmium.

His most cited work include:

  • Trichodesmium, a Globally Significant Marine Cyanobacterium (1030 citations)
  • Nitrogenase gene diversity and microbial community structure: a cross-system comparison. (690 citations)
  • Unicellular cyanobacteria fix N2 in the subtropical North Pacific Ocean. (608 citations)

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

Jonathan P. Zehr focuses on Ecology, Nitrogen fixation, Cyanobacteria, Diazotroph and Botany. His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Gene and Nitrogen cycle. The Nitrogen fixation study combines topics in areas such as Oceanography and Pelagic zone.

His Cyanobacteria research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Photosynthesis, Carbon fixation, Biochemistry, Symbiosis and Cyanothece. The various areas that Jonathan P. Zehr examines in his Diazotroph study include Biomass, Microbial ecology, Microorganism and Upwelling. The concepts of his Botany study are interwoven with issues in Synechococcus, Gene expression, Bacteria, Diel vertical migration and Phylotype.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (51.88%)
  • Nitrogen fixation (39.85%)
  • Cyanobacteria (30.08%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Ecology (51.88%)
  • Nitrogen fixation (39.85%)
  • Diazotroph (29.32%)

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

Jonathan P. Zehr mainly focuses on Ecology, Nitrogen fixation, Diazotroph, Cyanobacteria and Environmental science. His Ecology research includes elements of Microorganism and Prochlorococcus. His specific area of interest is Nitrogen fixation, where he studies Nitrogenase.

His studies deal with areas such as Abundance, Mesocosm, Pelagic zone and Plankton as well as Diazotroph. The Cyanobacteria study which covers Photosynthesis that intersects with Synechococcus. As part of the same scientific family, he usually focuses on Biogeochemical cycle, concentrating on Nutrient and intersecting with Nitrogen cycle.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genetic diversity of the unicellular nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria UCYN-A and its prymnesiophyte host. (71 citations)
  • nifH pyrosequencing reveals the potential for location-specific soil chemistry to influence N2 -fixing community dynamics. (67 citations)
  • Gammaproteobacterial diazotrophs and nifH gene expression in surface waters of the South Pacific Ocean. (65 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • Bacteria

His main research concerns Ecology, Nitrogen fixation, Diazotroph, Cyanobacteria and Biogeochemical cycle. His Ecology research integrates issues from Nitrogenase, Microbial ecology and Geomicrobiology. His Nitrogen fixation research incorporates themes from Phytoplankton, Symbiosis, Oceanography and Comparative genomics.

His Diazotroph study incorporates themes from Microorganism, Pelagic zone, Botany and Biogeochemistry. His study looks at the relationship between Botany and fields such as Phylotype, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. He combines subjects such as Ecology and Braarudosphaera bigelowii with his study of Biogeochemical cycle.
