Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Ecosystem

His main research concerns Environmental chemistry, Hydrology, Baltic sea, Environmental engineering and Water pollution. His Biomagnification study, which is part of a larger body of work in Environmental chemistry, is frequently linked to Biodilution, bridging the gap between disciplines. His work on Surface runoff as part of general Hydrology research is often related to Soil treatment, thus linking different fields of science.

His study in Baltic sea is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Hazardous waste, Polychlorinated Dibenzo-p-dioxins and Environmental protection. In his study, Oceanography is strongly linked to Congener, which falls under the umbrella field of Environmental engineering. His research investigates the link between Water pollution and topics such as Total organic carbon that cross with problems in Peat and Methylmercury.

His most cited work include:

  • Dioxin- and POP-contaminated sites—contemporary and future relevance and challenges (298 citations)
  • Hazardous substances in the Baltic Sea: An integrated thematic assessment of hazardous substances in the Baltic Sea (163 citations)
  • Forestry practices increase mercury and methyl mercury output from boreal forest catchments. (130 citations)

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

Matti Verta mostly deals with Environmental chemistry, Hydrology, Baltic sea, Ecology and Congener. The concepts of his Environmental chemistry study are interwoven with issues in Methylmercury, Polybrominated diphenyl ethers, Pollutant and Environmental engineering. His Hydrology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Peat, Boreal, Deposition and Taiga.

His Baltic sea course of study focuses on Fishery and Salmo. The study incorporates disciplines such as Pike and Esox in addition to Ecology. His Congener research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Herring, Polychlorinated dibenzodioxins and Polychlorinated dibenzofurans.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (38.27%)
  • Hydrology (14.81%)
  • Baltic sea (13.58%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2020)?

  • Environmental chemistry (38.27%)
  • Congener (13.58%)
  • Fishery (11.11%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Environmental chemistry, Congener, Fishery, Baltic sea and Polybrominated diphenyl ethers. His work on Polychlorinated dibenzofurans and Polychlorinated Dibenzo-p-dioxins is typically connected to Northern finland as part of general Environmental chemistry study, connecting several disciplines of science. His Congener study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Polychlorinated dibenzodioxins, Archipelago, Sediment trap and Deposition.

The various areas that Matti Verta examines in his Polychlorinated dibenzodioxins study include Bay, Estuary, Sediment trap, Sedimentation and Pollution. His studies in Fishery integrate themes in fields like Freshwater fish, Aquatic ecosystem and Nutrient. Matti Verta focuses mostly in the field of Baltic sea, narrowing it down to topics relating to Herring and, in certain cases, Predation and Salmo.

Between 2010 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Biomagnification of organohalogens in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) from its main prey species in three areas of the Baltic Sea. (31 citations)
  • Time trends and congener profiles of PCDD/Fs, PCBs, and PBDEs in Baltic herring off the coast of Finland during 1978–2009 (30 citations)
  • Atmospheric Mercury Fluxes in a Southern Boreal Forest and Wetland (18 citations)
