Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Rafael Coma is best known for:

Ecosystem
Algae
Plankton

His Seasonality research extends to Ecology, which is thematically connected. As part of his studies on Mediterranean climate, he often connects relevant areas like Archaeology. The study of Archaeology is intertwined with the study of Mediterranean sea in a number of ways. As part of his studies on Mediterranean sea, Rafael Coma often connects relevant subjects like Mediterranean climate. He regularly links together related areas like Benthic zone in his Oceanography studies. He performs integrative Benthic zone and Pelagic zone research in his work. He performs multidisciplinary study on Pelagic zone and Littoral zone in his works. In his works, Rafael Coma conducts interdisciplinary research on Littoral zone and Habitat. He integrates many fields, such as Habitat and Ecosystem, in his works.

His most cited work include:

Global warming-enhanced stratification and mass mortality events in the Mediterranean (303 citations)
Natural diet and grazing rate of the temperate sponge Dysidea avara (Demospongiae, Dendroceratida) throughout an annual cycle (196 citations)
Size distribution, density and disturbance in two Mediterranean gorgonians:Paramuricea clavataandEunicella singularis (144 citations)

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

Many of his studies on Ecology apply to Temperate climate as well. Coral is closely attributed to Octocorallia in his study. As part of his studies on Octocorallia, he frequently links adjacent subjects like Coelenterata. He applies his multidisciplinary studies on Coelenterata and Cnidaria in his research. In his study, Rafael Coma carries out multidisciplinary Cnidaria and Anthozoa research. Borrowing concepts from Gorgonian, Rafael Coma weaves in ideas under Anthozoa. His Coral research extends to the thematically linked field of Gorgonian. His study brings together the fields of Mediterranean sea and Mediterranean climate. His Mediterranean sea study typically links adjacent topics like Mediterranean climate.

Rafael Coma most often published in these fields:

Ecology (100.00%)
Coral (63.64%)
Mediterranean climate (43.18%)
