Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Phytoplankton

Oceanography, Phytoplankton, Ecology, Diatom and Ecosystem are his primary areas of study. Oceanography is closely attributed to Ocean gyre in his study. Mikel Latasa has included themes like Gram and Plankton in his Phytoplankton study.

His study in Ecology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both 18S ribosomal RNA and Lineage. His Ecosystem research incorporates elements of Continental shelf and Overexploitation. The Iron fertilization study which covers Biomass that intersects with Ocean fertilization and Plume.

His most cited work include:

  • Testing the iron hypothesis in ecosystems of the equatorial Pacific Ocean (1105 citations)
  • A single species, Micromonas pusilla (Prasinophyceae), dominates the eukaryotic picoplankton in the Western English Channel. (229 citations)
  • Targeted metagenomics and ecology of globally important uncultured eukaryotic phytoplankton (214 citations)

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

His main research concerns Oceanography, Phytoplankton, Ecology, Chlorophyll a and Botany. His Oceanography study incorporates themes from Mediterranean climate, Nutrient, Prochlorococcus and Deep chlorophyll maximum. His Phytoplankton study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Synechococcus, Biomass, Plankton, Diatom and Grazing.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Trophic level and Iron fertilization in addition to Biomass. His Chlorophyll a research integrates issues from Photosynthesis, Bay, Absorption, Ocean gyre and Environmental chemistry. His work investigates the relationship between Botany and topics such as Pelagophyceae that intersect with problems in Cyanobacteria.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (49.53%)
  • Phytoplankton (40.19%)
  • Ecology (23.36%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Oceanography (49.53%)
  • Phytoplankton (40.19%)
  • Ecology (23.36%)

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

Mikel Latasa focuses on Oceanography, Phytoplankton, Ecology, Nutrient and Community structure. Mikel Latasa combines subjects such as Mediterranean climate, Mediterranean sea and Prochlorococcus with his study of Oceanography. His Phytoplankton research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Grazing, Upwelling and Chlorophyll a.

Mikel Latasa studied Grazing and Iron fertilization that intersect with Zooplankton. His Nutrient study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Stratification, Fishery and Peninsula. His Photic zone study which covers Dimethylsulfoniopropionate that intersects with Ecosystem.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Phytoplankton across Tropical and Subtropical Regions of the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans (52 citations)
  • Global distribution and vertical patterns of a prymnesiophyte–cyanobacteria obligate symbiosis (50 citations)
  • Seasonal and mesoscale variability of primary production in the deep winter-mixing region of the NW Mediterranean (31 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Phytoplankton

Mikel Latasa mostly deals with Oceanography, Ecology, Phytoplankton, Bloom and Stratification. His Oceanography research incorporates themes from Photobleaching, Nitrate and Prochlorococcus. His Phytoplankton research includes themes of Upwelling and Chlorophyll a.

His Upwelling study combines topics in areas such as Coccolithophore, Productivity, Community, Ecosystem and Chaetoceros. His studies deal with areas such as Spring bloom, Algal bloom and Mediterranean sea as well as Bloom. Mikel Latasa interconnects Synechococcus and Chlorophyll, Botany in the investigation of issues within Deep chlorophyll maximum.
