What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Oceanography
- Ecosystem
His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Oceanography, Plankton, Calanus finmarchicus and Zooplankton.
His Ecology study often links to related topics such as Fishery.
His studies deal with areas such as Fishing down the food web, Clupea and North sea as well as Fishery.
His Oceanography research incorporates themes from Abundance, Gadus and Phytoplankton, Continuous Plankton Recorder.
His research investigates the link between Calanus finmarchicus and topics such as Overwintering that cross with problems in Climate change, Ecological niche, North Atlantic Deep Water, Water mass and Climatology.
His research in Zooplankton intersects with topics in Algal bloom, Benthic zone and Spring bloom.
His most cited work include:
- Challenges of Modeling Ocean Basin Ecosystems (176 citations)
- Changes in the structure and function of the North Sea fish foodweb, 1973–2000, and the impacts of fishing and climate (147 citations)
- Evidence for impacts by jellyfish on North Sea herring recruitment (116 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His main research concerns Oceanography, Fishery, Ecology, Calanus finmarchicus and Zooplankton.
His Oceanography study combines topics in areas such as Phytoplankton, Climatology and Ecosystem.
His work carried out in the field of Fishery brings together such families of science as Gadus and North sea.
In his study, Clupeidae is strongly linked to Herring, which falls under the umbrella field of Ecology.
His Calanus finmarchicus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Overwintering, Abundance, Calanus and Continuous Plankton Recorder.
His Fishing research integrates issues from Benthos and Ecosystem model.
He most often published in these fields:
- Oceanography (41.07%)
- Fishery (33.33%)
- Ecology (33.33%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Fishery (33.33%)
- Fish stock (7.14%)
- Brexit (2.98%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Fishery, Fish stock, Brexit, North sea and Fishing are his primary areas of study.
His Fishery research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Food web, Marine ecosystem and Gadus, Atlantic cod.
Ecosystem is closely attributed to Oceanography in his work.
His studies in Oceanography integrate themes in fields like Structural basin, Boreal and Calanus finmarchicus.
Michael R. Heath focuses mostly in the field of Pelagic zone, narrowing it down to topics relating to Phytoplankton and, in certain cases, Zooplankton.
His Zooplankton study is concerned with Ecology in general.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- A general framework for combining ecosystem models (27 citations)
- Lipid content in overwintering Calanus finmarchicus across the Subpolar Eastern North Atlantic Ocean (10 citations)
- Population density and temperature correlate with long-term trends in somatic growth rates and maturation schedules of herring and sprat. (6 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Oceanography
- Ecosystem
Michael R. Heath spends much of his time researching Fishery, Marine ecosystem, Discards, Overwintering and Copepod.
His Fishery study incorporates themes from Carrion, Trophic level, Ecology and Ecosystem.
His Marine ecosystem research includes elements of Continental shelf, Climate change, Seabed and Water column.
His Overwintering research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Shoaling and schooling, Food web, Predation, Effects of global warming and Dynamic energy budget.
His Copepod research focuses on subjects like Structural basin, which are linked to Oceanography.
Oceanography and Carbon sequestration are commonly linked in his work.
