Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biochemistry

Hydrology, Biofilm, Ecology, Oceanography and Biochemistry are his primary areas of study. In general Hydrology study, his work on Wetland often relates to the realm of Land based, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His Biofilm research incorporates elements of Carbon source, Biophysics and Microbiology.

Many of his research projects under Ecology are closely connected to Attenuation with Attenuation, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His Oceanography study incorporates themes from Phytoplankton and Mediterranean sea. He focuses mostly in the field of Mediterranean sea, narrowing it down to topics relating to Pelagic zone and, in certain cases, Environmental chemistry and Chlorophyll a.

His most cited work include:

  • Temperature effects on photosynthetic capacity, respiration, and growth rates of bloom‐forming cyanobacteria (471 citations)
  • Multicellular organization in a degradative biofilm community (275 citations)
  • North American prairie wetlands are important nonforested land-based carbon storage sites (200 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Phytoplankton, Environmental chemistry, Nutrient and Hydrology. His Ecology study combines topics in areas such as Cyanobacteria and Animal science. His Cyanobacteria research focuses on Photosynthesis and how it relates to Microcystis aeruginosa.

In his research, Autotroph is intimately related to Eutrophication, which falls under the overarching field of Phytoplankton. His study focuses on the intersection of Environmental chemistry and fields such as Effluent with connections in the field of Biofilm. The concepts of his Nutrient study are interwoven with issues in Bloom, Microcosm, Water column and Botany.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (38.14%)
  • Phytoplankton (22.68%)
  • Environmental chemistry (17.53%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2003-2021)?

  • Wetland (8.25%)
  • Environmental chemistry (17.53%)
  • Hydrology (13.40%)

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

Richard D. Robarts mainly investigates Wetland, Environmental chemistry, Hydrology, Arctic and Ecology. His Wetland research includes elements of Environmental engineering and Carbon storage, Ecosystem. His studies deal with areas such as Tetracycline and Plankton as well as Environmental chemistry.

His study looks at the intersection of Hydrology and topics like Total organic carbon with Biota, Carbon sink, Agriculture and Soil carbon. His study in Ecology focuses on Dissolved organic carbon and Subtropics. His Animal science research focuses on Nutrient and how it connects with Biomass.

Between 2003 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • North American prairie wetlands are important nonforested land-based carbon storage sites (200 citations)
  • Photodegradation of DOC in a shallow prairie wetland: evidence from seasonal changes in DOC optical properties and chemical characteristics (54 citations)
  • Risk analysis of dissolved organic matter-mediated ultraviolet B exposure in Canadian inland waters (41 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biochemistry

His primary scientific interests are in Wetland, Environmental chemistry, Total organic carbon, Hydrology and Ultraviolet radiation. The Wetland study combines topics in areas such as Carbon storage and Distilled water. Specifically, his work in Environmental chemistry is concerned with the study of Dissolved organic carbon.

His studies in Total organic carbon integrate themes in fields like δ13C, Ecosystem and Biota. His Hydrology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Agriculture, Soil carbon and Carbon sink. His Environmental engineering research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Pesticide, Organochlorine pesticide and Persistent organic pollutant.
