Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Coral reef
  • Ecosystem

Shaun K. Wilson mostly deals with Coral reef, Ecology, Reef, Resilience of coral reefs and Coral reef fish. His Coral reef research focuses on Coral bleaching in particular. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Global warming and Environmental issues with coral reefs.

His Reef research incorporates themes from Nutrient, Marine reserve and Detritivore. His Resilience of coral reefs research incorporates elements of Coral reef protection and Aquaculture of coral. His Pomacentrus amboinensis study, which is part of a larger body of work in Coral reef fish, is frequently linked to Quinaldine, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His most cited work include:

  • Global warming and recurrent mass bleaching of corals (1241 citations)
  • Spatial and temporal patterns of mass bleaching of corals in the Anthropocene. (696 citations)
  • Multiple disturbances and the global degradation of coral reefs: are reef fishes at risk or resilient? (540 citations)

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

His main research concerns Coral reef, Ecology, Reef, Fishery and Coral. He studies Coral reef fish which is a part of Coral reef. His Coral bleaching, Resilience of coral reefs, Aquaculture of coral, Environmental issues with coral reefs and Abundance investigations are all subjects of Ecology research.

His work deals with themes such as Sea surface temperature and Marine ecosystem, which intersect with Coral bleaching. His studies deal with areas such as Biodiversity, Marine reserve, Species richness, Ecosystem and Benthic zone as well as Reef. His Fishery study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Trophic level, Marine protected area and Seagrass.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Coral reef (97.58%)
  • Ecology (94.69%)
  • Reef (66.67%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Coral reef (97.58%)
  • Reef (66.67%)
  • Ecology (94.69%)

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

Shaun K. Wilson spends much of his time researching Coral reef, Reef, Ecology, Coral and Coral bleaching. His Coral reef research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Productivity, Species richness and Ecosystem. His Reef study is concerned with the larger field of Fishery.

His work on Fishing and Indo-Pacific is typically connected to Socio environmental, Strategic management and Context as part of general Fishery study, connecting several disciplines of science. His Coral bleaching research focuses on Sea surface temperature and how it relates to Anomaly, Extreme heat, Algae and Atmospheric sciences. His Coral reef fish research includes themes of Pocillopora and Acroporidae.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Social–environmental drivers inform strategic management of coral reefs in the Anthropocene (61 citations)
  • Productive instability of coral reef fisheries after climate-driven regime shifts (42 citations)
  • Temperature patterns and mechanisms influencing coral bleaching during the 2016 El Niño (29 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Coral reef

Shaun K. Wilson mainly investigates Coral reef, Reef, Coral bleaching, Ecology and Ecosystem. His Coral reef study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Biomass and Productivity. His Reef study improves the overall literature in Fishery.

Shaun K. Wilson interconnects Ecosystem management and Functional ecology in the investigation of issues within Fishery. As part of his Coral, Climate change and Oceanography and Coral bleaching studies, Shaun K. Wilson is studying Coral bleaching. His research related to Species richness, Acropora and Beta diversity might be considered part of Ecology.
