Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Carbon dioxide

Richard Carignan mainly focuses on Environmental chemistry, Sediment, Ecology, Zinc and Hydrology. His study looks at the intersection of Environmental chemistry and topics like Equilibrium constant with Water column. His Sediment research includes themes of Inorganic chemistry and Analytical chemistry.

His work on Dissolved organic carbon, Bioassay, Aquatic ecosystem and Benthic zone is typically connected to Chironomus as part of general Ecology study, connecting several disciplines of science. In general Hydrology study, his work on Watershed often relates to the realm of Shield, Empirical modelling and Fluvial, thereby connecting several areas of interest. Richard Carignan has included themes like Water quality, Forest harvesting, Logging, Nutrient and Taiga in his Watershed study.

His most cited work include:

  • Potential artifacts in the determination of metal partitioning in sediments by a sequential extraction procedure (313 citations)
  • Trace metals in oxic lake sediments: possible adsorption onto iron oxyhydroxides (242 citations)
  • Geochemistry of trace metals associated with reduced sulfur in freshwater sediments (231 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Environmental chemistry, Hydrology, Sediment and Nutrient. His Macrophyte, Boreal, Biomass and Benthic zone study in the realm of Ecology interacts with subjects such as Photosynthesis. His study in Environmental chemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Organic matter and Mineralogy, Pyrite.

His research in the fields of Water quality, Floodplain and Hydrology overlaps with other disciplines such as Shield. The various areas that Richard Carignan examines in his Sediment study include Hypolimnion, Equilibrium constant and Diagenesis. The concepts of his Nutrient study are interwoven with issues in Water pollution and Biogeochemical cycle.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (46.67%)
  • Environmental chemistry (40.00%)
  • Hydrology (41.67%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2009)?

  • Hydrology (41.67%)
  • Ecology (46.67%)
  • Water quality (13.33%)

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

Richard Carignan focuses on Hydrology, Ecology, Water quality, Photosynthesis and Chlorophyll a. His Wetland study in the realm of Hydrology interacts with subjects such as Atmosphere. His study brings together the fields of Watershed and Ecology.

He has researched Water quality in several fields, including Nitrate, Water pollution and Hydrology. His studies deal with areas such as Dissolved organic carbon and Nutrient as well as Water pollution. His work is dedicated to discovering how Nutrient, Perturbation are connected with Environmental chemistry and other disciplines.

Between 2005 and 2009, his most popular works were:

  • Spatial Analysis of Production by Macrophytes, Phytoplankton and Epiphyton in a Large River System under Different Water-Level Conditions (67 citations)
  • Cumulative impacts of hydrology and human activities on water quality in the St. Lawrence River (Lake Saint-Pierre, Quebec, Canada) (65 citations)
  • Cumulative impacts of hydrology and human activities on water quality in the St. Lawrence River (Lake Saint-Pierre, Quebec, Canada) (65 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Carbon dioxide

His primary areas of study are Hydrology, SAINT, Water quality, Hydrology and Phytoplankton. His Phytoplankton research is under the purview of Ecology. His Wind stress study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Macrophyte, Primary producers and Wetland.
