Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Peter Gell mainly focuses on Ecology, Wetland, Climate change, Diatom and Oceanography. In general Ecology, his work in Habitat, Ecosystem, Aquatic ecosystem and Freshwater ecosystem is often linked to Relevance linking many areas of study. His Wetland research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biogeochemistry, Holocene and Soil salinity.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Radiocarbon dating, Lake ecosystem, Greenhouse gas and Environmental resource management in addition to Climate change. His studies deal with areas such as Salinity and Algae as well as Diatom. Peter Gell is studying Estuary, which is a component of Oceanography.

His most cited work include:

  • Emerging threats and persistent conservation challenges for freshwater biodiversity (407 citations)
  • A global perspective on wetland salinization: ecological consequences of a growing threat to freshwater wetlands (271 citations)
  • Looking forward through the past: Identification of 50 priority research questions in palaeoecology (148 citations)

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

Peter Gell spends much of his time researching Wetland, Ecology, Environmental resource management, Oceanography and Diatom. His Wetland research integrates issues from Structural basin, Floodplain, Climate change and Ecosystem. His study in Ecology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Natural and Sediment.

His Environmental resource management research incorporates elements of Natural resource, Natural resource management and Ecosystem services. His study in the field of Estuary and Holocene also crosses realms of Java. He has researched Diatom in several fields, including Sedimentary rock, Algae, Sedimentology, Biota and Plankton.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Wetland (39.71%)
  • Ecology (36.03%)
  • Environmental resource management (17.65%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Wetland (39.71%)
  • Ecosystem (18.38%)
  • Climate change (16.91%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Wetland, Ecosystem, Climate change, Environmental resource management and Ecology. His research integrates issues of Restoration ecology, Ecosystem services, Sediment, Water quality and Paleoecology in his study of Wetland. His Ecosystem study incorporates themes from Biodiversity and Habitat.

Peter Gell interconnects Anthropocene, Estuary and Functional ecology in the investigation of issues within Habitat. His Climate change study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Vegetation and Water resource management. His Environmental resource management study also includes fields such as

  • Aquatic ecosystem together with Hydrology and Drainage basin,
  • Disturbance, which have a strong connection to Water resources.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Emerging threats and persistent conservation challenges for freshwater biodiversity (407 citations)
  • First human impacts and responses of aquatic systems: A review of palaeolimnological records from around the world (47 citations)
  • Ten complementary measures to assist with environmental watering programs in the Murray–Darling river system, Australia (8 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Peter Gell mainly investigates Climate change, Water resources, Water resource management, Wetland and Ecosystem. His Water resources research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Natural, Water quality, Structural basin and Human settlement. The various areas that Peter Gell examines in his Water resource management study include Environmental flow and Adaptive management.

His work carried out in the field of Wetland brings together such families of science as Biodiversity, Living Planet Index, Habitat, Freshwater ecosystem and Functional ecology. To a larger extent, he studies Ecology with the aim of understanding Biodiversity. The Ecosystem study combines topics in areas such as Environmental resource management and Land use.
