Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

Oceanography
Ecology
Zooplankton

Sharon L. Smith mainly focuses on Oceanography, Zooplankton, Monsoon, Spring bloom and Upwelling. She has included themes like Ecology and Annual cycle in her Oceanography study. Sharon L. Smith interconnects Climate change, Seabed, Remote sensing and Carbon flux in the investigation of issues within Zooplankton.

Her research in Monsoon intersects with topics in Diel vertical migration, Indian ocean, Nitrate and Ocean current. Her Nitrate study combines topics in areas such as Plankton, Water column and Oxygen minimum zone. Her Continental shelf research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Bloom, Neocalanus and Thysanoessa.

Her most cited work include:

The oxygen minimum zone in the Arabian Sea during 1995 (211 citations)
On the use of the acoustic Doppler current profiler to measure zooplankton abundance (184 citations)
Primary productivity and its regulation in the Arabian Sea during 1995 (178 citations)

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

Oceanography, Zooplankton, Upwelling, Monsoon and Biomass are her primary areas of study. Her work deals with themes such as Ecology and Copepod, which intersect with Oceanography. Her Zooplankton research includes themes of Acoustic Doppler current profiler, Abundance, Bloom, Continental shelf and Arctic.

Her studies deal with areas such as Productivity, Current, Spatial distribution and Calanoides carinatus as well as Upwelling. The various areas that Sharon L. Smith examines in her Monsoon study include Dominance, Annual cycle, Nitrate and Forcing. She studied Diel vertical migration and Gulf Stream that intersect with Front.

She most often published in these fields:

Oceanography (78.38%)
Zooplankton (52.70%)
Upwelling (27.03%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

Mathematics education (6.76%)
Scaffold (4.05%)
Pedagogy (2.70%)

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

Her primary areas of study are Mathematics education, Scaffold, Pedagogy, Teaching english and Language arts. Sharon L. Smith integrates many fields, such as Scaffold, Content, Writing instruction, Teaching learning, Content learning and DUAL, in her works. Her Teacher education and Literacy education study in the realm of Pedagogy connects with subjects such as Systemic functional linguistics, Space and General partnership.

Her Teaching english research incorporates elements of Funds of knowledge, Translanguaging and Literacy. In most of her Language arts studies, her work intersects topics such as English language.

Between 2015 and 2021, her most popular works were:

Vertical distribution of Eucalanoid copepods within the Costa Rica Dome area of the Eastern Tropical Pacific. (5 citations)
Systemic Functional Linguistics in Teacher Education (4 citations)
Interactions with and around texts: Writing in elementary schools (1 citations)

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

Ecology
Oceanography
Ecosystem

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Systemic functional linguistics, Literacy education, Pedagogy, Teacher education and Ecology. Her work in the fields of Ecology, such as Copepod, Thermocline, Pelagic zone and Oxygen minimum zone, overlaps with other areas such as Distribution. She combines subjects such as Abundance and Diel vertical migration, Oceanography with her study of Copepod.
