Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Zooplankton, Species richness, Crustacean and Branchiopoda. His work in Invertebrate, Dissolved organic carbon, Ecosystem, Introduced species and Daphnia is related to Ecology. The concepts of his Zooplankton study are interwoven with issues in Water quality and Temperate climate.

His Species richness study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biodiversity and Common species. His work carried out in the field of Crustacean brings together such families of science as Predation and Plankton. His Branchiopoda study incorporates themes from Pulex, Botany, Chlorophyll a, Reproduction and Animal science.

His most cited work include:

  • Increased UV-B penetration in a lake owing to drought-induced acidification (261 citations)
  • The Widespread Threat of Calcium Decline in Fresh Waters (242 citations)
  • The Widespread Threat of Calcium Decline in Fresh Waters (242 citations)

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

Norman D. Yan mainly focuses on Ecology, Zooplankton, Bythotrephes longimanus, Species richness and Crustacean. Predation, Abundance, Introduced species, Pelagic zone and Daphnia are the primary areas of interest in his Ecology study. Norman D. Yan has included themes like Water quality, Phytoplankton and Plankton in his Zooplankton study.

His Bythotrephes longimanus study combines topics in areas such as Leptodora, Population density, Brood and Secchi disk. His research in Species richness intersects with topics in Biodiversity and Species diversity. His Crustacean research integrates issues from Water pollution and Community structure.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (88.17%)
  • Zooplankton (63.91%)
  • Bythotrephes longimanus (27.81%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2020)?

  • Ecology (88.17%)
  • Zooplankton (63.91%)
  • Bythotrephes longimanus (27.81%)

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

Norman D. Yan mostly deals with Ecology, Zooplankton, Bythotrephes longimanus, Species richness and Daphnia. His studies in Predation, Pelagic zone, Introduced species, Ecosystem and Invasive species are all subfields of Ecology research. The Zooplankton study combines topics in areas such as Abundance, Aquatic ecosystem, Crustacean and Plankton.

His Bythotrephes longimanus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Population density, Abiotic component, Brood and Predator. His Species richness research includes elements of Propagule, Biodiversity, Environmental resource management and Species diversity. His Daphnia research includes themes of Environmental chemistry and Ecotoxicology.

Between 2009 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Taking stock of the assisted migration debate (173 citations)
  • Communities contain closely related species during ecosystem disturbance. (155 citations)
  • Environmental stability and lake zooplankton diversity - contrasting effects of chemical and thermal variability. (105 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Biodiversity, Invasive species, Zooplankton and Introduced species. His study involves Bythotrephes longimanus, Daphnia, Ecosystem, Freshwater ecosystem and Ecology, a branch of Ecology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Predation and Plankton in addition to Daphnia.

The concepts of his Biodiversity study are interwoven with issues in Species evenness, Species richness, Community structure and Disturbance. As part of one scientific family, Norman D. Yan deals mainly with the area of Invasive species, narrowing it down to issues related to the Habitat, and often Ecosystem services, Drainage basin and Water quality. His Introduced species research incorporates themes from Climate change and Pelagic zone.
