- Oceanography
- Ecosystem
His main research concerns Oceanography, Ecology, Zooplankton, Environmental science and Grazing.
His work in the fields of Oceanography, such as Euphausia, Water mass and Pelagic zone, overlaps with other areas such as Spatial variability.
His work in Ecology covers topics such as Animal science which are related to areas like Copepod and Temperature salinity diagrams.
His research in Zooplankton intersects with topics in Biomass, Estuary, Chlorophyll a, Plankton and Food web.
His Biomass research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Freshwater inflow, Acartia and Temperate climate.
In his study, Transect is strongly linked to Polar front, which falls under the umbrella field of Grazing.
His most cited work include:
- Salp/krill interactions in the Southern Ocean:spatial segregation and implications for the carbon flux (129 citations)
- A quantitative analysis of microplastic pollution along the south-eastern coastline of South Africa. (126 citations)
- Zooplankton structure and grazing in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean in late austral summer 1993 Part 2. Biochemical zonation (106 citations)
