Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Ecosystem

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Oceanography, Marine debris, Biological dispersal and Microplastics. His study in Fishery extends to Ecology with its themes. His research in Oceanography intersects with topics in Abundance, Ecological succession and Ocean gyre.

His Marine debris study incorporates themes from Citizen science, Pacific ocean and Litter. Martin Thiel interconnects Aquatic animal and Predation in the investigation of issues within Microplastics. The study incorporates disciplines such as Seawater and Sediment, Sorting in addition to Manta trawl.

His most cited work include:

  • Plastic Pollution in the World's Oceans: More than 5 Trillion Plastic Pieces Weighing over 250,000 Tons Afloat at Sea (1613 citations)
  • Microplastics in the Marine Environment: A Review of the Methods Used for Identification and Quantification (1563 citations)
  • The humboldt current system of northern and central chile : Oceanographic processes, ecological interactions and socioeconomic feedback (310 citations)

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

Martin Thiel mainly focuses on Ecology, Zoology, Oceanography, Biological dispersal and Crustacean. His study in Habitat, Kelp, Predation, Shrimp and Species richness falls within the category of Ecology. His Habitat research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Abundance, Fishery, Intertidal zone and Ecosystem.

His Kelp research incorporates elements of Durvillaea antarctica, Biomass and Algae. Oceanography is represented through his Marine debris, Benthic zone, Plastic pollution and Ocean current research. His Marine debris research integrates issues from Citizen science, Microplastics and Litter.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (55.56%)
  • Zoology (17.04%)
  • Oceanography (15.93%)

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

  • Ecology (55.56%)
  • Marine debris (8.89%)
  • Oceanography (15.93%)

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

His main research concerns Ecology, Marine debris, Oceanography, Litter and Citizen science. Biodiversity, Abundance, Species richness, Habitat and Fauna are among the areas of Ecology where the researcher is concentrating his efforts. He has researched Species richness in several fields, including Barnacle and Plastic pollution.

His Marine debris study results in a more complete grasp of Debris. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Durvillaea antarctica, Kelp and Ocean gyre. His study explores the link between Litter and topics such as Fishery that cross with problems in Population density.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The physical oceanography of the transport of floating marine debris (83 citations)
  • Toward the integrated marine debris observing system (72 citations)
  • Plastic Pirates sample litter at rivers in Germany – Riverside litter and litter sources estimated by schoolchildren (32 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Ecosystem

Martin Thiel focuses on Marine debris, Litter, Debris, Plastic bag and Shore. The Marine debris study combines topics in areas such as Ecology, Biodiversity and Aquaculture. His Ecology study focuses mostly on Species richness and Coral.

His Litter research incorporates themes from Forestry, Riparian zone and Illegal dumping. Martin Thiel studied Debris and Ocean current that intersect with Ocean gyre, Plankton and Physical oceanography. His work carried out in the field of Oceanography brings together such families of science as Durvillaea antarctica, Biological dispersal and Kelp.
