Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Optics
  • Predation

His primary scientific interests are in Optics, Polarization, Ecology, Coral and Hermatypic coral. His work carried out in the field of Optics brings together such families of science as Sepia, Underwater and Cuttlefish. His Polarization study incorporates themes from Camouflage, Color vision, Artificial intelligence and Computer vision.

His study in Coral reef and Reef falls within the category of Ecology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Nitrogen fixation, Bacteria and Botany in addition to Coral. Nadav Shashar interconnects Natural, Belt transect, Stylophora pistillata, Artificial reefs and Community structure in the investigation of issues within Hermatypic coral.

His most cited work include:

  • Polarization vision and its role in biological signaling (163 citations)
  • Extreme Diel Fluctuations of Oxygen in Diffusive Boundary Layers Surrounding Stony Corals (150 citations)
  • Nitrogen fixation (acetylene reduction) in stony corals: evidence for coral-bacteria interactions (145 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Polarization, Coral reef, Cuttlefish and Optics. A large part of his Polarization studies is devoted to Linear polarization. His studies in Coral reef integrate themes in fields like Reef, Artificial reef and Species richness.

His Reef research includes themes of Natural, Abundance, Community structure and Coral. His Cuttlefish research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Camouflage, Zoology, Communication, Cephalopod and Sepia. His work in the fields of Optics, such as Wavelength, Linearly polarized light and Transmitted light, intersects with other areas such as Chemistry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (43.20%)
  • Polarization (28.80%)
  • Coral reef (29.60%)

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

  • Coral reef (29.60%)
  • Ecology (43.20%)
  • Reef (26.40%)

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

Coral reef, Ecology, Reef, Cuttlefish and Sepia are his primary areas of study. His work in the fields of Coral reef, such as Environmental issues with coral reefs, overlaps with other areas such as History. His Cephalopod, Animal navigation and Premnas biaculeatus study in the realm of Ecology connects with subjects such as Directionality and Solar compass.

Nadav Shashar has included themes like Abundance, Coral and Ecosystem services in his Reef study. The Sepia study combines topics in areas such as Camouflage and Predation. His Predation study which covers Seawater that intersects with Zoology.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Guidelines for the Care and Welfare of Cephalopods in Research -A consensus based on an initiative by CephRes, FELASA and the Boyd Group. (126 citations)
  • Cephalopods in neuroscience: regulations, research and the 3Rs (87 citations)
  • Upgrading Marine Ecosystem Restoration Using Ecological‐Social Concepts (55 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Optics
  • Predation

Nadav Shashar mostly deals with Ecosystem services, Coral reef, Reef, Ecology and Neuroscience. His Ecosystem services research incorporates themes from Restoration ecology, Marine ecosystem and Environmental resource management. Fishery and Oceanography are all intrinsically tied to his study in Coral reef.

His Fishery research integrates issues from Training, Recreation and Human ecology. He has researched Ecology in several fields, including Polarization and Optics. The various areas that Nadav Shashar examines in his Neuroscience study include Animal Welfare and Harm.
