What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- IUCN Red List
- Habitat
His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Fishery, Habitat, Foraging and Marine conservation.
His Predation, Marine biology, Home range, Ecology and Turtle investigations are all subjects of Ecology research.
His Fishery research incorporates elements of Wildlife conservation, Phocoena spinipinnis and Apex predator.
His Habitat research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Climate change and Plankton.
His research links Bycatch with Foraging.
His Marine conservation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Marine protected area, Marine ecosystem, Endangered species and Extinction.
His most cited work include:
- Scaling laws of marine predator search behaviour (665 citations)
- Marine renewable energy: potential benefits to biodiversity? An urgent call for research (294 citations)
- Using continuous plankton recorder data (252 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Matthew J. Witt mainly investigates Fishery, Ecology, Habitat, Fishing and Marine protected area.
His Fishery course of study focuses on Oceanography and Marine ecosystem.
His work on Foraging, Marine conservation and Threatened species as part of general Ecology research is often related to Marine vertebrate, thus linking different fields of science.
His study in Foraging is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Climate change and Predation.
His Habitat research focuses on Range and how it relates to Continental shelf.
His Turtle research includes themes of Wildlife conservation, Juvenile and Population size.
He most often published in these fields:
- Fishery (51.52%)
- Ecology (41.67%)
- Habitat (29.55%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Fishery (51.52%)
- Marine protected area (16.67%)
- Habitat (29.55%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of study are Fishery, Marine protected area, Habitat, Fishing and Basking shark.
Matthew J. Witt studies Fishery, namely Lepidochelys olivacea.
His Marine protected area study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Benthos, Ecological niche, Exclusive economic zone, Marine conservation and Protected area.
His Habitat study which covers Environmental resource management that intersects with Temporal scales, Environmental impact assessment and Energy development.
His work in the fields of Fisheries management overlaps with other areas such as Context, Scale and Food security.
His studies in Predation integrate themes in fields like Molecular ecology and Turtle.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Using satellite AIS to improve our understanding of shipping and fill gaps in ocean observation data to support marine spatial planning (18 citations)
- Tracking Fine-Scale Structural Changes in Coastal Dune Morphology Using Kite Aerial Photography and Uncertainty-Assessed Structure-from-Motion Photogrammetry (17 citations)
- Conflict between Dolphins and a Data-Scarce Fishery of the European Union. (15 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- IUCN Red List
- Habitat
His primary areas of investigation include Fishery, Remote sensing, Fishing, Habitat and Marine protected area.
His study on Fishery is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Spatial ecology.
His Remote sensing research incorporates elements of Animal ecology and Ocean observations.
His Fishing study incorporates themes from Overexploitation and Exclusive economic zone.
His study in Vessel monitoring system extends to Habitat with its themes.
His research integrates issues of Habitat destruction, Marine conservation, Debris and Litter in his study of Marine protected area.
