In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Percy L. Donaghay mainly focuses on Remote sensing, Optics, Lidar, Scattering and Water column.
His research in Remote sensing intersects with topics in Visibility, Marine ecosystem and Thin layers.
His Lidar study combines topics in areas such as Attenuation, Absorption, Attenuation coefficient and Backscatter.
His Water column research includes elements of Jellyfish, Fishery, Waves and shallow water and Underwater.
Waves and shallow water is the subject of his research, which falls under Oceanography.
Oceanography connects with themes related to Chlorophyll in his study.
Between 2011 and 2016, his most popular works were:
- Characterization of biophysical interactions in the water column using in situ digital holography (45 citations)
- Oceanographic lidar profiles compared with estimates from in situ optical measurements (33 citations)
- Airborne lidar detection and characterization of internal waves in a shallow fjord (27 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Oceanography
- Optics
His scientific interests lie mostly in Optics, Scattering, Lidar, Remote sensing and Light scattering.
His work in the fields of Polarization, Wave propagation, Polarizing filter and Internal wave overlaps with other areas such as Wave packet.
His Scattering study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Attenuation, Absorption, Attenuation coefficient and Backscatter.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Circular polarization and Aerial survey in addition to Lidar.
His study in Light scattering is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Mineralogy, Holography and Chlorophyll a.
He has researched Chlorophyll a in several fields, including Ecology, Pycnocline and Digital holography.
