What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Ecosystem
- Biodiversity
His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Environmental resource management, Mediterranean climate, Bay and Catalan.
His work in Benthic zone, Capitella capitata, Biomass, Polychaete and Ecosystem are all subfields of Ecology research.
In his study, Benthos, Scale and Multivariate analysis is inextricably linked to Habitat, which falls within the broad field of Benthic zone.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Human pressure, Balanced scorecard and Mediterranean area in addition to Environmental resource management.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Microplastics and Debris.
His Bay research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Littoral zone and Glycera.
His most cited work include:
- Characterization of the ecological quality of the coastal Gulf of Lions (NW Mediterranean). A comparative approach based on three biotic indices. (123 citations)
- Seasonal evolution of beach waste and litter during the bathing season on the Catalan coast (103 citations)
- A methodological approach to be used in integrated coastal zone management processes: the case of the Catalan Coast (Catalonia, Spain) (88 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Rafael Sardá mainly focuses on Ecology, Environmental resource management, Mediterranean climate, Oceanography and Benthic zone.
His studies link Bay with Ecology.
His research in Environmental resource management intersects with topics in Marine Strategy Framework Directive, Ecosystem services, Sustainability and Environmental protection.
The concepts of his Mediterranean climate study are interwoven with issues in Zoology, Waves and shallow water, Fishery and Balearic islands.
As part of the same scientific family, Rafael Sardá usually focuses on Oceanography, concentrating on Mediterranean sea and intersecting with Trophic level, Transect, Manta trawl, Microplastics and Debris.
His work on Benthos as part of general Benthic zone research is frequently linked to Database, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (47.96%)
- Environmental resource management (27.55%)
- Mediterranean climate (24.49%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?
- Environmental resource management (27.55%)
- Mediterranean sea (21.43%)
- Mediterranean climate (24.49%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary scientific interests are in Environmental resource management, Mediterranean sea, Mediterranean climate, Oceanography and Ecology.
His Environmental resource management research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ecosystem-based management, Sustainability, Marine Strategy Framework Directive, Good Environmental Status and Stakeholder engagement.
He has researched Mediterranean sea in several fields, including Deep sea, Climatology, Local scale, Ecosystem and Benthic zone.
His work on Benthic habitat as part of his general Benthic zone study is frequently connected to Visual assessment, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.
His research investigates the link between Mediterranean climate and topics such as Fishery that cross with problems in Biomass, Productivity and Bay.
Rafael Sardá connects Ecology with Risk management in his research.
Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Floating plastic debris in the Central and Western Mediterranean Sea (73 citations)
- On the relationship between quality, users’ perception and economic valuation in NW Mediterranean beaches (54 citations)
- Users expectations and the need for differential beach management frameworks along the Costa Brava: Urban vs. natural protected beaches (43 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Biodiversity
- Ecosystem
Rafael Sardá focuses on Environmental resource management, Sustainability, Oceanography, Mediterranean sea and Mediterranean climate.
His Environmental resource management study incorporates themes from Marine Strategy Framework Directive, Good Environmental Status and Stakeholder engagement.
Rafael Sardá has included themes like Ecosystem management, Ecosystem-based management, Management system, Ecosystem services and Stakeholder in his Sustainability study.
His research on Oceanography often connects related topics like Marine protected area.
His study in Mediterranean sea is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cartography, Benthic zone, Benthic habitat and Biotope.
His Mediterranean climate study frequently involves adjacent topics like Travel cost.
