Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Pesticide
  • Ecosystem

Peter S. Ross mainly investigates Ecology, Blubber, Zoology, Persistent organic pollutant and Polychlorinated biphenyl. His study in the field of Predation, Polybrominated diphenyl ethers and Pesticide is also linked to topics like Arctic char. His Blubber research incorporates elements of Trophic level and Phoca.

His work on Harbor seal as part of general Phoca research is frequently linked to Outbreak, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. Thyroid, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Thyroid hormone receptor is closely connected to Marine mammal in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Persistent organic pollutant. His Polychlorinated biphenyl research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Bioassay, Hatching, Cormorant and Reproduction.

His most cited work include:

  • Impairment of Immune Function in Harbor Seals (Phoca vitulina) Feeding on Fish from Polluted Waters (283 citations)
  • Polychlorinated biphenyl residues and egg mortality in double‐crested cormorants from the great lakes (186 citations)
  • Large and growing environmental reservoirs of Deca-BDE present an emerging health risk for fish and marine mammals. (137 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Environmental chemistry, Blubber, Polybrominated diphenyl ethers and Polychlorinated biphenyl. His study in Zoology extends to Ecology with its themes. Peter S. Ross combines subjects such as Beluga Whale, Beluga and Pollutant with his study of Environmental chemistry.

His Blubber research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Animal science, Vitamin, Retinol and Polychlorinated dibenzofurans. His Polybrominated diphenyl ethers research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Particulates and Sea lion. His work deals with themes such as Phoca and Biota, which intersect with Polychlorinated biphenyl.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (31.82%)
  • Environmental chemistry (23.86%)
  • Blubber (20.45%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Microplastics (5.68%)
  • Fishery (13.64%)
  • Ecology (31.82%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Microplastics, Fishery, Ecology, Environmental resource management and Sediment. Peter S. Ross usually deals with Microplastics and limits it to topics linked to Pollutant and Environmental engineering. His Ecology research incorporates themes from Pike and Freshwater fish.

The various areas that he examines in his Environmental resource management study include Environmental monitoring, Contamination and Environmental planning. Combining a variety of fields, including Sediment, Polybrominated diphenyl ethers, Marine pollution, Indicator species, Polychlorinated biphenyl and Pollution, are what the author presents in his essays. His Food chain study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Trophic level and Benthos.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Recent progress on our understanding of the biological effects of mercury in fish and wildlife in the Canadian Arctic. (97 citations)
  • Manufacturing doubt about endocrine disrupter science--A rebuttal of industry-sponsored critical comments on the UNEP/WHO report "State of the Science of Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals 2012". (41 citations)
  • Out of sight, but no longer out of mind: Microplastics as a global pollutant (7 citations)
