Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Oceanography

His primary scientific interests are in Hypoxia, Ecology, Benthic zone, Oceanography and Eutrophication. Robert J. Diaz interconnects Abyssal plain and Continental shelf in the investigation of issues within Ecology. His Benthic zone research integrates issues from Abyssal zone, Population structure, Anoxic waters and Substrate.

In his research on the topic of Oceanography, Structural complexity, Foraging and Spatial ecology is strongly related with Habitat. Robert J. Diaz combines subjects such as Global warming, Water quality, Water pollution and Ecosystem with his study of Eutrophication. His Water pollution research includes elements of Fossil fuel, Climate change, Ocean deoxygenation and Surface runoff.

His most cited work include:

  • Spreading Dead Zones and Consequences for Marine Ecosystems (3830 citations)
  • Marine benthic hypoxia: a review of its ecological effects and the behavioural responses of benthic macrofauna (1684 citations)
  • Overview of Hypoxia around the World (893 citations)

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

His main research concerns Ecology, Oceanography, Benthic zone, Hypoxia and Estuary. His work deals with themes such as Bay and Fishery, which intersect with Ecology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Sediment and Bioturbation.

His research integrates issues of Species richness, Fauna, Water column and Anoxic waters in his study of Benthic zone. Robert J. Diaz has included themes like Trophic level, Polychaete, Brackish water and Temperate climate in his Estuary study. His Eutrophication study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Phytoplankton, Algal bloom, Water pollution, Global warming and Water quality.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (52.21%)
  • Oceanography (44.25%)
  • Benthic zone (38.94%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2020)?

  • Hypoxia (32.74%)
  • Ecology (52.21%)
  • Oceanography (44.25%)

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

Robert J. Diaz mainly focuses on Hypoxia, Ecology, Oceanography, Eutrophication and Benthic zone. As a member of one scientific family, Robert J. Diaz mostly works in the field of Ecology, focusing on Fishery and, on occasion, Dead zone. His Oceanography research incorporates themes from Climatology and Community structure.

His Eutrophication study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Global warming, Biomass and Habitat destruction. His research in Benthic zone intersects with topics in Organic matter, Pelagic zone, Fauna and Water column. His Water quality research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Water pollution and Surface water.

Between 2008 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Dynamics and distribution of natural and human-caused hypoxia (624 citations)
  • Global change and eutrophication of coastal waters (621 citations)
  • Hypoxia, Nitrogen, and Fisheries: Integrating Effects Across Local and Global Landscapes (257 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Oceanography

Robert J. Diaz focuses on Hypoxia, Ecology, Nutrient, Eutrophication and Oceanography. His work in the fields of Ecology, such as Habitat and Benthic zone, intersects with other areas such as Professional judgement and Quality. His study on Nutrient also encompasses disciplines like

  • Climate change that intertwine with fields like Seasonality and Aquatic ecosystem,
  • Estuary, Trophic level and Fisheries management most often made with reference to Water quality.

His studies deal with areas such as Habitat destruction, Global warming, Fishery, Pelagic zone and Ecosystem as well as Eutrophication. His Global warming research includes themes of Water pollution and Surface water. His work on Continental shelf and Chesapeake bay as part of his general Oceanography study is frequently connected to Natural and Distribution, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.
