Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Habitat

Nigel J. Willby mainly focuses on Ecology, Eutrophication, Aquatic plant, Macrophyte and Water Framework Directive. He frequently studies issues relating to Environmental resource management and Ecology. Nigel J. Willby interconnects Phytoplankton, Limiting nutrient, Freshwater ecosystem and Groundwater in the investigation of issues within Eutrophication.

The various areas that Nigel J. Willby examines in his Aquatic plant study include Intraspecific competition, Dry weight, Botany, Interspecific competition and Species richness. The concepts of his Macrophyte study are interwoven with issues in Dry matter and Animal science. His Habitat study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Dominance and Plant community.

His most cited work include:

  • Attribute-based classification of European hydrophytes and its relationship to habitat utilization. (165 citations)
  • Phosphorus in groundwater – an overlooked contributor to eutrophication? (123 citations)
  • Classifying aquatic macrophytes as indicators of eutrophication in European lakes (117 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Macrophyte, Aquatic plant, Habitat and Eutrophication. Nigel J. Willby performs multidisciplinary studies into Ecology and Water Framework Directive in his work. His Macrophyte research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Biomass, Abundance, Physical geography and Ecological assessment.

Nigel J. Willby works mostly in the field of Habitat, limiting it down to topics relating to Plant community and, in certain cases, Native plant. His study in Eutrophication is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Phytoplankton, Environmental protection, Surface water and Groundwater. Nigel J. Willby usually deals with Vegetation and limits it to topics linked to Range and Herbaceous plant, Functional ecology and Competition.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (74.03%)
  • Macrophyte (40.26%)
  • Aquatic plant (25.97%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2020)?

  • Ecology (74.03%)
  • Macrophyte (40.26%)
  • Ecosystem (18.18%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Macrophyte, Ecosystem, Species richness and Spatial heterogeneity. Riparian zone, Invasive species, Vegetation, Biodiversity and Biota are subfields of Ecology in which his conducts study. His Macrophyte study incorporates themes from Range, Aquatic plant, Restoration ecology and Eutrophication.

His Aquatic plant research includes elements of Nestedness, Catchment scale and Ecosystem services. His research in Species richness intersects with topics in Abundance and Land use. His work in Spatial heterogeneity covers topics such as Beaver which are related to areas like Ecosystem engineer and Wetland.

Between 2017 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Plants in aquatic ecosystems: current trends and future directions (49 citations)
  • Impacts of multiple stressors on freshwater biota across spatial scales and ecosystems. (45 citations)
  • Response of submerged macrophyte communities to external and internal restoration measures in north temperate shallow lakes. (39 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Habitat

His main research concerns Ecology, Macrophyte, Ecosystem, Eutrophication and Water Framework Directive. In general Ecology, his work in Species richness, Restoration ecology, Biota and Aquatic plant is often linked to Logistic regression linking many areas of study. His studies in Species richness integrate themes in fields like Biodiversity, Ecosystem engineer, Beaver, Spatial heterogeneity and Wetland.

His Aquatic plant research integrates issues from Aquatic science, Aquatic ecosystem, Ecology and Aquatic biodiversity research. Nigel J. Willby has included themes like Range and Environmental planning in his Macrophyte study. His study on Biomanipulation is often connected to PCLake as part of broader study in Eutrophication.
