Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Coral reef
  • Ecosystem

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Coral, Coral reef, Ecology, Reef and Oceanography. He focuses mostly in the field of Coral, narrowing it down to topics relating to Zooxanthellae and, in certain cases, Cnidaria, Photosystem II, Photoinhibition, Host and Symbiodinium. His Coral reef research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Resistance and Environmental resource management.

His Ecology study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Extinction. His Reef research incorporates elements of Marine protected area and Climate change. The Oceanography study combines topics in areas such as Ecosystem and Hiatus.

His most cited work include:

  • Low symbiont diversity in southern Great Barrier Reef corals, relative to those of the Caribbean (352 citations)
  • Prioritizing Key Resilience Indicators to Support Coral Reef Management in a Changing Climate (193 citations)
  • Repair Machinery of Symbiotic Photosynthesis as the Primary Target of Heat Stress for Reef-Building Corals (192 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Coral reef, Reef, Coral and Oceanography. His work investigates the relationship between Ecology and topics such as Life history theory that intersect with problems in Landscape diversity and Asexual reproduction. Robert van Woesik is involved in the study of Coral reef that focuses on Coral bleaching in particular.

His studies in Reef integrate themes in fields like Climate change and Habitat. In general Coral, his work in Acropora, Anthozoa and Porites is often linked to Disease linking many areas of study. His study in the field of Sea surface temperature, Bay and Atoll also crosses realms of Acanthaster.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (56.25%)
  • Coral reef (55.21%)
  • Reef (55.21%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Reef (55.21%)
  • Coral reef (55.21%)
  • Coral (53.13%)

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

Robert van Woesik focuses on Reef, Coral reef, Coral, Oceanography and Ecology. As a part of the same scientific study, Robert van Woesik usually deals with the Reef, concentrating on Habitat and frequently concerns with Acropora. His Coral reef study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Environmental data, Population growth, Platygyra lamellina and Life history theory.

His study looks at the relationship between Coral and topics such as Fishery, which overlap with Ecology and Greenhouse gas. His work on Climate change, Sea surface temperature and Coral bleaching as part of general Oceanography study is frequently linked to Carbonate and Acanthaster, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His study in the field of Pollen, Seasonality and Amazon rainforest is also linked to topics like Pyrosequencing and Disease.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Spatial Epidemiology of the Stony-Coral-Tissue-Loss Disease in Florida (24 citations)
  • Turbid reefs moderate coral bleaching under climate-related temperature stress. (16 citations)
  • Keeping up with sea-level rise: Carbonate production rates in Palau and Yap, western Pacific Ocean (14 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Climate change

His primary scientific interests are in Reef, Coral, Oceanography, Climate change and Coral reef. His work carried out in the field of Reef brings together such families of science as Substrate, Habitat and Temporal scales. Robert van Woesik has included themes like Benthic zone and Fishery in his Habitat study.

His research on Coral concerns the broader Ecology. Robert van Woesik studies Sea surface temperature which is a part of Oceanography. His Sea surface temperature study combines topics in areas such as Range, Population dynamics, Coral bleaching, Turbidity and Coral Triangle.
