His Toxicology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Environmental engineering and Scalp.
His most cited work include:
- Scalp hair analysis as a tool in assessing human exposure to heavy metals (S. Domingos mine, Portugal) (143 citations)
- Avoidance tests with Collembola and earthworms as early screening tools for site-specific assessment of polluted soils. (140 citations)
- Effects of estuarine sediment contamination on feeding and on key physiological functions of the polychaete Hediste diversicolor: Laboratory and in situ assays. (139 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Environmental chemistry, Ecotoxicology, Contamination and Toxicology.
As a member of one scientific family, Rui Ribeiro mostly works in the field of Ecology, focusing on Ecotoxicity and, on occasion, Toxicant.
His Environmental chemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Bioassay and Atrazine.
His research investigates the connection with Ecotoxicology and areas like Acid mine drainage which intersect with concerns in Ceriodaphnia dubia.
His study connects Animal science and Toxicology.
His Cladocera research includes themes of Daphnia magna and Reproduction.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (50.00%)
- Environmental chemistry (26.76%)
- Ecotoxicology (23.94%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?
- Ecology (50.00%)
- Habitat (10.56%)
- Contamination (16.90%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Rui Ribeiro mainly investigates Ecology, Habitat, Contamination, Ecosystem and Spatial distribution.
His work focuses on many connections between Ecology and other disciplines, such as Disturbance, that overlap with his field of interest in Spatial ecology.
His Habitat study combines topics in areas such as Estuary, Poecilia and Guppy.
His Contamination research includes elements of Environmental chemistry, Aquatic animal and Toxicology.
His work in the fields of Microcosm overlaps with other areas such as Vermiculite.
His work in Ecosystem is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Ecotoxicology.
Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Active and passive spatial avoidance by aquatic organisms from environmental stressors: A complementary perspective and a critical review. (48 citations)
- Habitat fragmentation caused by contaminants: Atrazine as a chemical barrier isolating fish populations (30 citations)
- Sensitivity of freshwater species under single and multigenerational exposure to seawater intrusion. (24 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Ecosystem
- Bacteria
His scientific interests lie mostly in Habitat, Ecology, Contamination, Habitat fragmentation and Guppy.
His study explores the link between Habitat and topics such as Ecosystem that cross with problems in Spatial ecology, Ecotoxicity, Fishery and Disturbance.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including 16S ribosomal RNA, Alphaproteobacteria and Bacteria.
His research integrates issues of PEST analysis, Aquatic animal, Pesticide and Environmental chemistry in his study of Habitat fragmentation.
Rui Ribeiro has researched Guppy in several fields, including Atrazine, Interspecific competition, Freshwater fish, Poecilia and Exposed Population.
His studies deal with areas such as Zoology and Population density as well as Poecilia.
