Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Enzyme
  • Bacteria

Norman Terry mainly investigates Botany, Phytoremediation, Shoot, Brassica and Photosynthesis. His studies in Botany integrate themes in fields like Axenic, Soil contamination, Horticulture, Rhizosphere and Nutrient. His studies deal with areas such as Environmental chemistry, Biochemistry and Bioremediation as well as Phytoremediation.

His Shoot research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cucumis, Lactuca, Brassica oleracea, Fragaria and Brassica rapa. Norman Terry combines subjects such as Stanleya pinnata, Arabidopsis and Stanleya with his study of Brassica. His studies in Photosynthesis integrate themes in fields like Chlorophyll, Phosphate, Sugar, Sugar beet and Metabolism.

His most cited work include:

  • SELENIUM IN HIGHER PLANTS. (965 citations)
  • Phytoremediation of Contaminated Soil and Water (703 citations)
  • Chromium in the environment: factors affecting biological remediation (670 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Botany, Phytoremediation, Photosynthesis, Biochemistry and Shoot. His studies deal with areas such as Sugar, Bioremediation, Horticulture and Sucrose as well as Botany. His work on Hyperaccumulator as part of general Phytoremediation study is frequently linked to Cadmium, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Norman Terry has researched Photosynthesis in several fields, including Electron transport chain, Chlorophyll, Phosphate, Sugar beet and Chloroplast. His research investigates the link between Shoot and topics such as Brassica that cross with problems in Transgene and Chromatography. Norman Terry usually deals with Environmental chemistry and limits it to topics linked to Wastewater and Wetland.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (41.18%)
  • Phytoremediation (26.80%)
  • Photosynthesis (26.14%)

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

  • Bioremediation (14.38%)
  • Bacteria (5.23%)
  • Contamination (5.23%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Bioremediation, Bacteria, Contamination, Salinity and Environmental remediation. His research in Environmental remediation focuses on subjects like Environmental chemistry, which are connected to Polluted soils and Hyperaccumulator. His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Phytoremediation, Vegetation and Community structure.

The concepts of his Phytoremediation study are interwoven with issues in clone and Dry weight. The Horizontal gene transfer study which covers Escherichia coli that intersects with Botany. Norman Terry does research in Botany, focusing on Hydroponics specifically.

Between 2009 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Remediation of Selenium-Polluted Soils and Waters by Phytovolatilization (52 citations)
  • Mechanisms of boron tolerance and accumulation in plants: a physiological comparison of the extremely boron-tolerant plant species, Puccinellia distans, with the moderately boron-tolerant Gypsophila arrostil. (47 citations)
  • Development of a Constructed Wetland Water Treatment System for Selenium Removal: Incorporation of an Algal Treatment Component (32 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Botany
  • Bacteria

Environmental chemistry, Environmental engineering, Water column, Constructed wetland and Polluted soils are his primary areas of study. His work in the fields of Environmental chemistry, such as Microcosm, overlaps with other areas such as Selenate and Volatilisation. His Environmental engineering study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Peat, Nutrient, Wetland and Ecosystem.

His Water column study frequently links to related topics such as Salinity. As part of his studies on Polluted soils, Norman Terry often connects relevant areas like Environmental remediation.
