Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • Ecology
  • DNA

Nicholas J. Ashbolt mostly deals with Microbiology, Water quality, Environmental health, Ecology and Cryptosporidium. Nicholas J. Ashbolt has researched Microbiology in several fields, including Bacteria, Legionella pneumophila, Legionella, Biofilm and Rotavirus. His Water quality research integrates issues from Environmental engineering, Contamination, Water pollution and Recreation.

His work carried out in the field of Environmental health brings together such families of science as Food safety and Antibiotic resistance. He specializes in Ecology, namely Feces. His research in Cryptosporidium intersects with topics in Giardia, Risk analysis, Water safety and Microbial contamination.

His most cited work include:

  • Microbial contamination of drinking water and disease outcomes in developing regions. (619 citations)
  • Survival of fecal microorganisms in marine and freshwater sediments. (491 citations)
  • Guidelines for the safe use of wastewater, excreta and greywater (367 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Microbiology, Environmental engineering, Water quality, Wastewater and Sewage. His Microbiology research incorporates themes from Legionella, Legionella pneumophila, Biofilm and Bacteria. His research combines Waste management and Environmental engineering.

In Water quality, he works on issues like Recreation, which are connected to Environmental health. His research on Wastewater also deals with topics like

  • Effluent most often made with reference to Sewage treatment,
  • Veterinary medicine that intertwine with fields like Fecal coliform. His studies deal with areas such as Environmental chemistry and Stormwater as well as Sewage.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (36.64%)
  • Environmental engineering (16.78%)
  • Water quality (15.07%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Microbiology (36.64%)
  • Pulp and paper industry (4.45%)
  • Bacteria (10.27%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Microbiology, Pulp and paper industry, Bacteria, Wastewater and Legionella pneumophila. His Microbiology research includes elements of Infectivity, Virus and Enterovirus. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Reuse and Sewage treatment.

His Sewage treatment study deals with the bigger picture of Environmental engineering. Nicholas J. Ashbolt has included themes like Legionella, Infectious disease and Amoeba in his Legionella pneumophila study. His Legionella study incorporates themes from Biofilm, Virology, Intracellular and Pandemic, Coronavirus disease 2019.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • UV inactivation of human infectious viruses at two full-scale wastewater treatment plants in Canada. (23 citations)
  • An Environmental Science and Engineering Framework for Combating Antimicrobial Resistance (20 citations)
  • Extended persistence of general and cattle-associated fecal indicators in marine and freshwater environment (16 citations)

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

  • Bacteria
  • Ecology
  • DNA

Nicholas J. Ashbolt focuses on Wastewater, Microbiology, Biofilm, Pulp and paper industry and Bacteria. His study in Wastewater is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Reuse, Virus, Phylogenetics, Gene and Sewage treatment. Sewage treatment is a subfield of Environmental engineering that Nicholas J. Ashbolt investigates.

His Microbiology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Infectivity, Capsid, Aquatic environment, Propidium monoazide and Culture independent. His work deals with themes such as Legionella and Legionella pneumophila, which intersect with Biofilm. His Bacteria study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Antibiotics and Imaging flow cytometry.
