Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Genus

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Phytoplankton, Oceanography, Dinoflagellate and Bloom. Her Ecology research incorporates elements of Ciguatera Poisoning, Ciguatera and Ciguatoxin. Her Phytoplankton research incorporates themes from Trophic level, Estuary, Diatom and Plankton.

Her Oceanography research integrates issues from Lepidochelys kempi, Fishing and Flounder. Her Dinoflagellate study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Zoology, Taxonomy, Algal bloom and Evolutionary biology. Her Bloom research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Karenia brevis and Red tide.

Her most cited work include:

  • Toxic marine phytoplankton, zooplankton grazers, and pelagic food webs (371 citations)
  • Gymnodinium breve red tide blooms: Initiation, transport, and consequences of surface circulation (278 citations)
  • MONITORING KARENIA BREVIS BLOOMS IN THE GULF OF MEXICO USING SATELLITE OCEAN COLOR IMAGERY AND OTHER DATA (253 citations)

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

Patricia A. Tester mostly deals with Ecology, Dinoflagellate, Phytoplankton, Oceanography and Algal bloom. As part of her studies on Ecology, Patricia A. Tester often connects relevant subjects like Zoology. Her research integrates issues of Larva and Ciguatoxin in her study of Zoology.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Dinophyceae, Ciguatera and Pfiesteria piscicida in addition to Dinoflagellate. Her Phytoplankton research includes themes of Biomass, Estuary, Trophic level and Plankton. Patricia A. Tester studied Algal bloom and Benthic zone that intersect with Substrate and Coral.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (45.22%)
  • Dinoflagellate (28.70%)
  • Phytoplankton (25.22%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Ciguatoxin (13.91%)
  • Dinoflagellate (28.70%)
  • Zoology (17.39%)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Ciguatoxin, Dinoflagellate, Zoology, Ciguatera and Benthic zone. Her work on Ciguatera Poisoning as part of general Ciguatoxin study is frequently connected to Caribbean region, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. Her work investigates the relationship between Ciguatera Poisoning and topics such as Bay that intersect with problems in Phytoplankton, Salinity, Water column, Karenia mikimotoi and Fish kill.

Her Dinoflagellate study is focused on Oceanography in general. Benthic zone is the subject of her research, which falls under Ecology. Patricia A. Tester works in the field of Ecology, focusing on Abundance in particular.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Ciguatoxicity of Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa species from the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico. (61 citations)
  • Harmful algal blooms in benthic systems: Recent progress and future research (44 citations)
  • Tectus niloticus (Tegulidae, Gastropod) as a Novel Vector of Ciguatera Poisoning: Detection of Pacific Ciguatoxins in Toxic Samples from Nuku Hiva Island (French Polynesia). (38 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Ecosystem

Her main research concerns Ecology, Ciguatoxin, Zoology, Benthic zone and Algal bloom. Patricia A. Tester is interested in Abundance, which is a branch of Ecology. Her work carried out in the field of Abundance brings together such families of science as Dinoflagellate, Gambierdiscus and Algae.

In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Ciguatoxin, Sea urchin and Bioaccumulation is strongly linked to Bay. Her research in Benthic zone intersects with topics in Range, Climate change, Tropics and Habitat. Her Ciguatera Poisoning study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Ciguatera.
