Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Predation

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Methylmercury, Animal science, Bioaccumulation and Bay. As part of his studies on Ecology, Joshua T. Ackerman often connects relevant subjects like Zoology. Joshua T. Ackerman has researched Methylmercury in several fields, including Hydrology, Sink, Surface water, Biota and Environmental chemistry.

Joshua T. Ackerman combines subjects such as Feather and Sterna with his study of Animal science. His research integrates issues of Aquatic ecosystem, Ecosystem, Paddy field and Guild in his study of Bioaccumulation. Joshua T. Ackerman studied Bay and Dietary Mercury that intersect with Space use.

His most cited work include:

  • Avian mercury exposure and toxicological risk across western North America: A synthesis. (109 citations)
  • Mercury demethylation in waterbird livers: dose-response thresholds and differences among species. (101 citations)
  • Exploring individual quality: Basal metabolic rate and reproductive performance in storm-petrels (81 citations)

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

Ecology, Bay, Zoology, Bioaccumulation and Methylmercury are his primary areas of study. His research in Nest, Habitat, Sterna, Waterfowl and Predation are components of Ecology. His Sterna study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Stilt, Tern, Animal science and Avocet.

His Bay research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Estuary, Fishery and Marsh. In his study, Reproductive success is inextricably linked to Hatching, which falls within the broad field of Zoology. The Methylmercury study combines topics in areas such as Environmental chemistry, Aquatic ecosystem and Ecosystem.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (61.71%)
  • Bay (25.14%)
  • Zoology (25.71%)

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

  • Zoology (25.71%)
  • Ecology (61.71%)
  • Methylmercury (18.29%)

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

Joshua T. Ackerman mostly deals with Zoology, Ecology, Methylmercury, Waterfowl and Anas. His work carried out in the field of Zoology brings together such families of science as Mesopredator release hypothesis and Avocet. In his research on the topic of Avocet, Sterna and Tern is strongly related with Morphometrics.

His Methylmercury research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Feather, Environmental chemistry, Bioaccumulation, Skunk and Songbird. His research investigates the link between Anas and topics such as Nest that cross with problems in Predation, Animal science, Incubation and Ibis. Joshua T. Ackerman works mostly in the field of Wildlife, limiting it down to topics relating to Contamination and, in certain cases, Bay.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Current state of knowledge on biological effects from contaminants on arctic wildlife and fish (61 citations)
  • Methylmercury exposure in wildlife: A review of the ecological and physiological processes affecting contaminant concentrations and their interpretation. (24 citations)
  • Mercury Concentrations Vary Within and Among Individual Bird Feathers: A Critical Evaluation and Guidelines for Feather Use in Mercury Monitoring Programs. (17 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Predation

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Methylmercury, Ecology, Bioaccumulation, Biomonitoring and Feather. His Methylmercury research includes themes of Zoology, MERCURY EXPOSURE and Songbird. His work focuses on many connections between Zoology and other disciplines, such as Toxicity, that overlap with his field of interest in Waterfowl.

His study deals with a combination of Ecology and Movement tracking. His study explores the link between Bioaccumulation and topics such as Ecosystem that cross with problems in Dragonfly, National park, Aquatic ecosystem and Wetland. As part of the same scientific family, Joshua T. Ackerman usually focuses on Feather, concentrating on Omnivore and intersecting with Foraging.
