Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Ecosystem

Pierre Richard focuses on Ecology, Trophic level, Oceanography, Intertidal zone and Bay. His Ecology research incorporates themes from δ13C and Isotopic signature. His studies deal with areas such as Isotope analysis, Foraging and Niche as well as Trophic level.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Biological dispersal, Leucas and Beluga in addition to Oceanography. He has researched Intertidal zone in several fields, including Diatom, Chlorophyll a, Botany, Algae and Animal science. Pierre Richard focuses mostly in the field of Bay, narrowing it down to matters related to Bivalvia and, in some cases, Detritus.

His most cited work include:

  • Isotopic Determination of Food Sources ofCrassostrea gigasAlong a Trophic Gradient in the Estuarine Bay of Marennes-Ol éron (273 citations)
  • Determination of food sources for benthic invertebrates in a salt marsh (Aiguillon Bay, France) by carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes: importance of locally produced sources (161 citations)
  • Isotopic niches and trophic levels of myctophid fishes and their predators in the Southern Ocean (144 citations)

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

His main research concerns Ecology, Oceanography, Trophic level, Bay and Benthic zone. Ecology is closely attributed to Fishery in his research. His work on Arctic, Intertidal zone, Narwhal and Water column as part of his general Oceanography study is frequently connected to Environmental science, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

The Trophic level study combines topics in areas such as Organic matter, Zooplankton, Predation, Seabird and Isotope analysis. His work carried out in the field of Bay brings together such families of science as Dominance, Range, Balaena and Biogeochemical cycle. His study in Benthic zone is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Biomass, Seagrass, Zostera and Pelagic zone.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (51.95%)
  • Oceanography (37.66%)
  • Trophic level (26.62%)

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

  • Ecology (51.95%)
  • Oceanography (37.66%)
  • Environmental science (15.58%)

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

Pierre Richard mainly focuses on Ecology, Oceanography, Environmental science, Arctic and Fishery. His Ecology study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Botany. His study in the fields of Estuary, Bloom, Biogenic silica and Submersion under the domain of Oceanography overlaps with other disciplines such as Delta.

His research investigates the connection with Arctic and areas like Sea ice which intersect with concerns in Habitat. His Fishery research also works with subjects such as

  • Beluga Whale and related Beluga, Bay and Marine mammal,
  • Water column and related Mediterranean climate. The various areas that Pierre Richard examines in his Trophic level study include Isotope analysis, Ecosystem and Predation.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Distribution and sources of organic matter in surface sediments of Bohai Sea near the Yellow River Estuary, China (39 citations)
  • Decadal shifts in autumn migration timing by Pacific Arctic beluga whales are related to delayed annual sea ice formation (31 citations)
  • Dynamics of particulate organic matter composition in coastal systems: a spatio-temporal study at multi-systems scale (28 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Oceanography

Pierre Richard mainly investigates Fishery, Oceanography, Beluga Whale, Arctic and Estuary. His Fishery research incorporates themes from Productivity, Population specific, Soy protein and Sound. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Plateau, Algal bloom and Mediterranean sea.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Beaufort sea, Bay, Satellite telemetry and Beluga in addition to Beluga Whale. His work in Estuary addresses issues such as Organic matter, which are connected to fields such as Total organic carbon, Mediterranean climate, Benthic zone, Phytoplankton and Littoral zone. His Salix polaris study is related to the wider topic of Ecology.
