What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Predation
- Ecosystem
His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Fishery, Predation, Coral reef and Density dependence.
His study brings together the fields of Zoology and Ecology.
While the research belongs to areas of Fishery, Mark A. Hixon spends his time largely on the problem of Age structure, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Marine fisheries, Old-growth forest, Reproductive isolation, Biomass and Groundfish.
His Predation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Overfishing, Chromis and Habitat, Coral reef fish.
His research integrates issues of Introduced species and Invasive species in his study of Coral reef.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Population density, Local population, Population size and Competition in addition to Density dependence.
His most cited work include:
- RECRUITMENT AND THE LOCAL DYNAMICS OF OPEN MARINE POPULATIONS (1066 citations)
- Predation, Prey Refuges, and the Structure of Coral-Reef Fish Assemblages (599 citations)
- Fisheries Sustainability via Protection of Age Structure and Spatial Distribution of Fish Populations (541 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Fishery, Reef, Coral reef and Predation.
His research investigates the connection between Ecology and topics such as Density dependence that intersect with issues in Population size.
His research in Fishery focuses on subjects like Biodiversity, which are connected to Seagrass.
As part of his studies on Reef, Mark A. Hixon often connects relevant subjects like Ecology.
His Predation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Population density, Stegastes and Species diversity.
His study looks at the intersection of Coral reef fish and topics like Biological dispersal with Pelagic zone.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (55.00%)
- Fishery (49.29%)
- Reef (27.14%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2019)?
- Fishery (49.29%)
- Reef (27.14%)
- Ecology (55.00%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Mark A. Hixon mainly investigates Fishery, Reef, Ecology, Stocking and Predation.
Mark A. Hixon has researched Fishery in several fields, including Seagrass and Biodiversity.
Mark A. Hixon interconnects Juvenile, Host and Forage fish in the investigation of issues within Reef.
As part of his studies on Ecology, Mark A. Hixon often connects relevant areas like Biological dispersal.
His work carried out in the field of Stocking brings together such families of science as Competition, Red lionfish, Tropical marine climate and Stegastes planifrons.
His Predation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Zoology, Bridled goby and Fish species.
Between 2014 and 2019, his most popular works were:
- Lionfish: a major marine invasion (27 citations)
- Parasite-mediated enemy release and low biotic resistance may facilitate invasion of Atlantic coral reefs by Pacific red lionfish (Pterois volitans) (17 citations)
- Building Coral Reef Resilience Through Spatial Herbivore Management (14 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Habitat
- Predation
Mark A. Hixon focuses on Ecology, Fishery, Coral reef, Reef and Pterois.
His research combines Biological dispersal and Ecology.
His work on Pterois miles is typically connected to Management strategy and Degree of similarity as part of general Fishery study, connecting several disciplines of science.
His Coral reef research incorporates elements of Ecological resilience, Habitat, Predation, Species richness and Pocillopora meandrina.
His studies deal with areas such as Population growth, Abundance, Intraspecific competition and Fishing as well as Reef.
In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Pterois, Parasitism is strongly linked to Stocking.
