Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

Ecology
Ecosystem
Predation

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Daphnia, Nutrient, Algae and Daphnia magna. His study involves Zooplankton, Predation, Ecosystem, Acartia tonsa and Food chain, a branch of Ecology. His Zooplankton research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Phytoplankton and Plankton.

His Plankton study combines topics in areas such as Trophic level, Dinoflagellate, Copepod and Bacterioplankton. He has researched Daphnia in several fields, including Cladocera and Daphnia galeata. The study incorporates disciplines such as Food quality, Chemical defense and Fatty acid in addition to Algae.

His most cited work include:

Predator-mediated plasticity in morphology, life history, and behavior of Daphnia: the uncoupling of responses (264 citations)
Resilience of North Sea phytoplankton spring bloom dynamics: An analysis of long‐term data at Helgoland Roads (225 citations)
MINERAL LIMITATION OF ZOOPLANKTON: STOICHIOMETRIC CONSTRAINTS AND OPTIMAL FORAGING (202 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Daphnia, Phytoplankton, Predation and Cladocera. His work in Zooplankton, Plankton, Copepod, Trophic level and Daphnia galeata is related to Ecology. Maarten Boersma has included themes like Biomass, Seston and Eutrophication in his Zooplankton study.

His Daphnia research includes themes of Diel vertical migration and Botany, Algae. His research in Algae intersects with topics in Food quality, Dinoflagellate and Nutrient. His studies deal with areas such as Diatom, Oceanography and Pelagic zone as well as Phytoplankton.

He most often published in these fields:

Ecology (63.69%)
Daphnia (31.21%)
Phytoplankton (19.75%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

Ecology (63.69%)
Phytoplankton (19.75%)
Oceanography (11.46%)

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

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Phytoplankton, Oceanography, Ocean acidification and Plankton. By researching both Ecology and Term, Maarten Boersma produces research that crosses academic boundaries. His work carried out in the field of Phytoplankton brings together such families of science as Diatom, Phenotypic plasticity, Food web and Zooplankton.

His Zooplankton research incorporates themes from Spring bloom, Turbidity and Mesocosm. His studies in Plankton integrate themes in fields like Ecosystem and Ecosystem services. His research in Copepod focuses on subjects like Nutrient, which are connected to Regime shift.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

Control of phytoplankton in a shelf sea: Determination of the main drivers based on the Helgoland Roads Time Series (36 citations)
Toxic algal bloom induced by ocean acidification disrupts the pelagic food web (30 citations)
Ocean acidification effects on mesozooplankton community development: Results from a long-term mesocosm experiment. (29 citations)

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

Ecology
Ecosystem
Predation

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Ocean acidification, Phytoplankton, Oceanography and Trophic level. Maarten Boersma incorporates Ecology and Gammarus in his studies. His Phytoplankton study incorporates themes from Diatom and Zooplankton.

His Oceanography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Jellyfish, Fishery and Aquatic organisms. The Trophic level study combines topics in areas such as Regime shift and German bight, North sea. His Copepod research integrates issues from Adaptation, Acclimatization and Nutrient.
