What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Habitat
- Ecosystem
His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Seagrass, Habitat, Abundance and Fishery.
Predation, Species richness, Vegetation, Crustacean and Foraging are among the areas of Ecology where Kenneth L. Heck concentrates his study.
His studies deal with areas such as Biomass, Trophic cascade and Marine habitats as well as Seagrass.
His Habitat research incorporates elements of Reef, Hermatypic coral, Marine ecosystem and Biogeography.
He works mostly in the field of Fishery, limiting it down to topics relating to Bay and, in certain cases, Trawling, Carcharhinus, Leiostomus xanthurus, Anchovy and Bairdiella chrysoura, as a part of the same area of interest.
The Coral reef study combines topics in areas such as Posidonia australis, Blue carbon and Halodule uninervis.
His most cited work include:
- Accelerating loss of seagrasses across the globe threatens coastal ecosystems (2113 citations)
- Faunal communities in seagrass beds: A review of the influence of plant structure and prey characteristics on predator-prey relationships (833 citations)
- Explicit Calculation of the Rarefaction Diversity Measurement and the Determination of Sufficient Sample Size (725 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Seagrass, Fishery, Habitat and Thalassia testudinum.
His Predation, Abundance and Herbivore study, which is part of a larger body of work in Ecology, is frequently linked to Environmental science, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His study explores the link between Abundance and topics such as Species richness that cross with problems in Fauna.
His Seagrass study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biomass, Epiphyte and Grazing.
His work carried out in the field of Habitat brings together such families of science as Marine ecosystem and Vegetation.
His Thalassia testudinum study combines topics in areas such as Sea urchin, Lytechinus variegatus, Nutrient and Botany.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (72.89%)
- Seagrass (51.81%)
- Fishery (30.12%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?
- Ecology (72.89%)
- Seagrass (51.81%)
- Fishery (30.12%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Kenneth L. Heck spends much of his time researching Ecology, Seagrass, Fishery, Environmental science and Ecosystem.
His study in Herbivore, Mangrove, Avicennia germinans, Salt marsh and Marsh falls under the purview of Ecology.
His study of Thalassia testudinum is a part of Seagrass.
His study in Fishery is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Juvenile, Baltic sea and Habitat.
His work deals with themes such as Oyster, Oyster reef restoration, Hydrography, Resilience of coral reefs and Fringing reef, which intersect with Habitat.
His study focuses on the intersection of Grazing and fields such as Foraging with connections in the field of Predation.
Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Accelerating tropicalization and the transformation of temperate seagrass meadows (54 citations)
- Seagrass growth, reproductive, and morphological plasticity across environmental gradients over a large spatial scale (21 citations)
- Do restored oyster reefs benefit seagrasses? An experimental study in the Northern Gulf of Mexico (15 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Habitat
- Ecosystem
Kenneth L. Heck mainly focuses on Ecology, Seagrass, Fishery, Mangrove and Marsh.
Intraspecific competition, Predation, Biomass and Red lionfish are the primary areas of interest in his Ecology study.
Many of his research projects under Seagrass are closely connected to Environmental science with Environmental science, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.
His work in the fields of Fishery, such as Nursery habitat, intersects with other areas such as Genetic differentiation.
His research in Mangrove focuses on subjects like Ecotone, which are connected to Trophic level and Nekton.
His Marsh research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biota, Vegetation, Erosion and Salt marsh.
