What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Ecosystem
- Phytoplankton
His main research concerns Ecology, Zooplankton, Phytoplankton, Food web and Trophic level.
The Nutrient, Ecosystem, Ecology and Freshwater ecosystem research Michael T. Brett does as part of his general Ecology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Production, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.
His research integrates issues of Trophic cascade and Aquatic ecosystem in his study of Zooplankton.
Michael T. Brett combines subjects such as Food quality, Food chain and Plankton with his study of Phytoplankton.
His Food web study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Docosahexaenoic acid, Daphnia, Botany and Fatty acid.
His Trophic level study combines topics in areas such as Unsaturated fatty acid, Biomass, Seston, Empirical research and Primary producers.
His most cited work include:
- The role of highly unsaturated fatty acids in aquatic foodweb processes (723 citations)
- A highly unsaturated fatty acid predicts carbon transfer between primary producers and consumers. (548 citations)
- Lipid composition and food quality of some freshwater phytoplankton for cladoceran zooplankters (372 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Phytoplankton, Zooplankton, Trophic level and Daphnia.
His Ecology research focuses on Polyunsaturated fatty acid and how it relates to Freshwater fish.
His study looks at the relationship between Phytoplankton and topics such as Biomass, which overlap with Bacterioplankton.
The Zooplankton study which covers Crustacean that intersects with Abundance and Community structure.
His Trophic level research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Food quality, Food chain, Pelagic zone, Aquatic ecosystem and Primary producers.
His Daphnia research includes themes of Scenedesmus, Cryptomonas, Botany and Fatty acid.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (47.90%)
- Phytoplankton (27.73%)
- Zooplankton (26.05%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Invertebrate (4.20%)
- Ecology (47.90%)
- Polyunsaturated fatty acid (15.13%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Michael T. Brett focuses on Invertebrate, Ecology, Polyunsaturated fatty acid, Food quality and Plant litter.
His work deals with themes such as Freshwater fish, Food science and Periphyton, Algae, which intersect with Invertebrate.
His Trophic level, Phytoplankton and Aquatic ecosystem study, which is part of a larger body of work in Ecology, is frequently linked to Deuterium and Subsidy, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His Polyunsaturated fatty acid study contributes to a more complete understanding of Fatty acid.
His research in Food quality intersects with topics in Resource, River ecosystem, Marine ecosystem, Predation and STREAMS.
His Plant litter research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Macrophyte, Benthic zone, Peanut butter and Botany.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Feeding strategies for the acquisition of high-quality food sources in stream macroinvertebrates: Collecting, integrating, and mixed feeding (16 citations)
- An assessment of assumptions and uncertainty in deuterium‐based estimates of terrestrial subsidies to aquatic consumers (10 citations)
- The bioavailability of different dissolved organic nitrogen compounds for the freshwater algae Raphidocelis subcapitata. (10 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Nutrient, Periphyton, Primary producers and Environmental water.
His Ecology research incorporates themes from Food quality, STREAMS and Polyunsaturated fatty acid.
His studies in Nutrient integrate themes in fields like Amino acid, Urea and Chlorophyta.
His study in Periphyton is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Litter and Plant litter.
Primary producers is a subfield of Phytoplankton that Michael T. Brett investigates.
