Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Predation
  • Ecosystem

His scientific interests lie mostly in Fishery, Ecology, Dreissena, Oceanography and Hypolimnion. His Fishery research incorporates themes from Deepwater sculpin, Chironomidae and Coregonus clupeaformis. His work on Ecology deals in particular with Alosa pseudoharengus and Alewife.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Phytoplankton and Quagga mussel in addition to Oceanography. In his work, Ecosystem and Bythotrephes longimanus is strongly intertwined with Predation, which is a subfield of Zooplankton. His Water column research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Spring bloom, Algal bloom, Seston, Cryptomonas and Zebra mussel.

His most cited work include:

  • Changes in Diet and Body Condition of Lake Whitefish in Southern Lake Michigan Associated with Changes in Benthos (186 citations)
  • Recent changes in primary production and phytoplankton in the offshore region of southeastern Lake Michigan (163 citations)
  • Dreissena and the disappearance of the spring phytoplankton bloom in Lake Michigan (158 citations)

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

Steven A. Pothoven focuses on Ecology, Fishery, Predation, Zooplankton and Environmental science. His research links Perch with Ecology. His research integrates issues of Chironomidae, Bay, Alewife and Coregonus clupeaformis in his study of Fishery.

His study in Predation is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Leptodora, Ichthyoplankton and Crustacean. His Zooplankton study deals with Hypolimnion intersecting with Diel vertical migration. Zebra mussel and Diatom is closely connected to Quagga mussel in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Oceanography.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (58.65%)
  • Fishery (51.92%)
  • Predation (31.73%)

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

  • Fishery (51.92%)
  • Ecology (58.65%)
  • Environmental science (25.00%)

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

His main research concerns Fishery, Ecology, Environmental science, Predation and Zooplankton. His research in Fishery intersects with topics in Neogobius, Bay, Round goby and Rainbow smelt. As part of one scientific family, Steven A. Pothoven deals mainly with the area of Ecology, narrowing it down to issues related to the Perch, and often Midge.

His study looks at the relationship between Predation and fields such as Ichthyoplankton, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His study explores the link between Zooplankton and topics such as Abundance that cross with problems in Crustacean and Bythotrephes longimanus. His research investigates the connection with Phytoplankton and areas like Productivity which intersect with concerns in Spatial ecology, Quagga mussel, Water column and Photic zone.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Influence of invasive quagga mussels, phosphorus loads, and climate on spatial and temporal patterns of productivity in Lake Michigan: A biophysical modeling study (29 citations)
  • Lake-wide phytoplankton production and abundance in the Upper Great Lakes: 2010–2013 (25 citations)
  • Seasonal feeding ecology of co-existing native and invasive benthic fish along a nearshore to offshore gradient in Lake Michigan (8 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Predation
  • Ecosystem

Steven A. Pothoven mainly investigates Fishery, Environmental science, Ecology, Mysis diluviana and Bioenergetics. Particularly relevant to Benthic zone is his body of work in Fishery. There are a combination of areas like Phytoplankton, Water column, Photic zone, Productivity and Zooplankton integrated together with his Environmental science study.

His study in Phytoplankton is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Hydrology and Abundance. His Ecology study frequently links to related topics such as Perch. His research on Mysis and Predation is centered around Mysis diluviana.
