Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Organic chemistry
  • Environmental chemistry

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Environmental chemistry, Perfluorooctanoic acid, Water pollution, Environmental engineering and Bay. His Environmental chemistry study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Surface water. His Perfluorooctanoic acid study combines topics in areas such as Carboxylic acid, Shrimp, Aquatic animal, Solid phase extraction and Mollusca.

His work deals with themes such as Baltic sea, Oceanography, Pelagic zone and Tern, which intersect with Water pollution. Nobuyoshi Yamashita combines subjects such as Water quality, Food science, Organofluorine compounds and Antibiotics with his study of Environmental engineering. The Bay study combines topics in areas such as Seawater, Dry weight, Water column and Pollution.

His most cited work include:

  • A global survey of perfluorinated acids in oceans. (459 citations)
  • Analysis of fluorotelomer alcohols, fluorotelomer acids, and short- and long-chain perfluorinated acids in water and biota (452 citations)
  • A survey of perfluorooctane sulfonate and related perfluorinated organic compounds in water, fish, birds, and humans from Japan. (384 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Environmental chemistry, Chromatography, Bay, Perfluorooctanoic acid and Pollution. The various areas that Nobuyoshi Yamashita examines in his Environmental chemistry study include Contamination and Surface water. In the field of Chromatography, his study on Gas chromatography, High-performance liquid chromatography, Mass spectrometry and Solid phase extraction overlaps with subjects such as Composition.

His Bay research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Estuary and Dry weight.

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

Nobuyoshi Yamashita focuses on Environmental chemistry, Surface water, Contamination, Bay and Oceanography. His Environmental chemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Wastewater, Particulates and Sewage treatment. The concepts of his Surface water study are interwoven with issues in Seawater, Water column and Arctic.

His Contamination research incorporates elements of Firefighting, Waste management and Current. He has included themes like Estuary, Deposition, Pollution and Wet season in his Bay study. His studies in Oceanography integrate themes in fields like Climatology and Flood myth.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Bisphenol A and other bisphenol analogues including BPS and BPF in surface water samples from Japan, China, Korea and India. (218 citations)
  • Occurrence, distribution and ecological risk assessment of multiple classes of UV filters in surface waters from different countries. (151 citations)
  • Mass loading and removal of pharmaceuticals and personal care products, including psychoactive and illicit drugs and artificial sweeteners, in five sewage treatment plants in India (79 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Organic chemistry
  • Environmental chemistry

His main research concerns Environmental chemistry, Sewage treatment, Contamination, Surface water and Population density. Nobuyoshi Yamashita has researched Environmental chemistry in several fields, including Seawater and Dry weight. His Sewage treatment research integrates issues from Effluent and Sewage.

His Effluent research includes themes of Wastewater and Perfluorooctanoic acid. His work carried out in the field of Surface water brings together such families of science as Ecology and Arctic. His studies deal with areas such as Deposition, Urbanization, Physical geography, Chlorinated paraffins and Pollution as well as Population density.
