Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Carbon dioxide

His scientific interests lie mostly in Oceanography, Phytoplankton, Biogeochemical cycle, Plankton and Ecology. His studies deal with areas such as High-Nutrient, low-chlorophyll, Carbon dioxide and Carbon cycle as well as Oceanography. His Phytoplankton research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Diatom and Environmental chemistry, Biogeochemistry.

His Biogeochemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Marine life and Earth science. His Biogeochemical cycle research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Chemical oceanography and Ocean observations. His research in Iron fertilization intersects with topics in Carbon sequestration and Ocean fertilization.

His most cited work include:

  • Global Iron Connections Between Desert Dust, Ocean Biogeochemistry, and Climate (1841 citations)
  • A mesoscale phytoplankton bloom in the polar Southern Ocean stimulated by iron fertilization (1273 citations)
  • Mesoscale iron enrichment experiments 1993-2005 : Synthesis and future directions (981 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Oceanography, Phytoplankton, Biogeochemical cycle, Environmental chemistry and Biogeochemistry. In Oceanography, Philip W. Boyd works on issues like High-Nutrient, low-chlorophyll, which are connected to Iron fertilization. He has included themes like Diatom, Nitrate and Plankton in his Phytoplankton study.

The concepts of his Plankton study are interwoven with issues in Sediment trap, Photic zone and Biological pump. His Biogeochemical cycle research includes themes of Chemical oceanography, Deep sea, Biomass, Geotraces and Aerosol. His studies in Environmental chemistry integrate themes in fields like Seawater, Particulates and Mineralogy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (64.33%)
  • Phytoplankton (54.57%)
  • Biogeochemical cycle (30.49%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Phytoplankton (54.57%)
  • Oceanography (64.33%)
  • Biogeochemical cycle (30.49%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Phytoplankton, Oceanography, Biogeochemical cycle, Environmental chemistry and Climate change. His biological study focuses on Primary producers. He combines subjects such as Spring bloom, Carbon cycle and Chlorophyll a with his study of Oceanography.

His research integrates issues of Marine life, Deep sea, Biomass, Ecosystem and Biogeochemistry in his study of Biogeochemical cycle. His study in Biogeochemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Food web and Nutrient. His Environmental chemistry research incorporates themes from Photic zone, Particulates and Cycling.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Scientists' Warning to Humanity: Microorganisms and Climate Change (263 citations)
  • Multi-faceted particle pumps drive carbon sequestration in the ocean (106 citations)
  • Photosynthetic adaptation to low iron, light, and temperature in Southern Ocean phytoplankton. (27 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Carbon dioxide
  • Oceanography

Philip W. Boyd mostly deals with Biogeochemical cycle, Biogeochemistry, Climate change, Oceanography and Ecosystem. His Biogeochemical cycle study incorporates themes from Krill fishery, Krill, Antarctic krill and Aerosol. His Biogeochemistry research integrates issues from Fish stock, Nutrient and Carbon cycle.

His research in Climate change focuses on subjects like Photosynthesis, which are connected to Productivity. Philip W. Boyd focuses mostly in the field of Oceanography, narrowing it down to topics relating to Phytoplankton and, in certain cases, Carbon dioxide. Philip W. Boyd interconnects Global warming and Atmospheric sciences in the investigation of issues within Ecosystem.
