Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Ecosystem

Ecology, Arctic, Sea ice, Environmental science and Climate change are his primary areas of study. His study in Habitat, Seasonality, Trophic level, Home range and Range is done as part of Ecology. His Trophic level research focuses on subjects like Fishery, which are linked to Biomagnification and Beluga Whale.

His Arctic research integrates issues from Whale, Predation and Marine mammal. He does research in Sea ice, focusing on Arctic ice pack specifically. His study looks at the intersection of Climate change and topics like Abundance with Habitat destruction, Physical geography and Species diversity.

His most cited work include:

  • QUANTIFYING THE SENSITIVITY OF ARCTIC MARINE MAMMALS TO CLIMATE-INDUCED HABITAT CHANGE (447 citations)
  • Arctic marine mammal population status, sea ice habitat loss, and conservation recommendations for the 21st century. (212 citations)
  • CLIMATE CHANGE AND RINGED SEAL (PHOCA HISPIDA) RECRUITMENT IN WESTERN HUDSON BAY (187 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Arctic, Sea ice, Bay and Fishery. Predation, Habitat, Abundance, Narwhal and Beluga are among the areas of Ecology where the researcher is concentrating his efforts. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Whale and Climate change.

The Sea ice study which covers Seasonality that intersects with Intraspecific competition. His Bay research incorporates elements of Phoca, Estuary and Aerial survey. His Fishery study deals with Beluga Whale intersecting with Leucas and Marine mammal.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (62.77%)
  • Arctic (54.11%)
  • Sea ice (31.60%)

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

  • Arctic (54.11%)
  • Whale (25.97%)
  • Ecology (62.77%)

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

Steven H. Ferguson mostly deals with Arctic, Whale, Ecology, Fishery and Zoology. His Arctic research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Range, Abundance and Sea ice. His work carried out in the field of Whale brings together such families of science as Gulf Stream, Sympatric speciation and Predation.

In general Ecology study, his work on Ecological niche, Arctic ice pack and Species distribution often relates to the realm of Effective population size and Demographic history, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His study on Fishery also encompasses disciplines like

  • Sound together with Beluga, Beluga Whale, Bowhead whale and Food web,
  • Foraging which intersects with area such as Zooplankton, Balaena, Commercial fishing and Discards,
  • The arctic and related Erignathus barbatus and Phoca. His Zoology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Trophic level, Body size, Narwhal and Interspecific competition.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Killer whale genomes reveal a complex history of recurrent admixture and vicariance. (19 citations)
  • Universal DNA methylation age across mammalian tissues (14 citations)
  • Killer whale presence drives bowhead whale selection for sea ice in Arctic seascapes of fear (11 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Habitat

Steven H. Ferguson spends much of his time researching Arctic, Whale, Ecology, Zoology and Predation. He has included themes like Sea ice and Climate change in his Arctic study. His research investigates the connection between Sea ice and topics such as Bay that intersect with problems in Range and Niche.

Steven H. Ferguson combines subjects such as Phylogenetics, Sympatric speciation, Vicariance and Genomics with his study of Whale. In his works, Steven H. Ferguson performs multidisciplinary study on Ecology and Effective population size. His Zoology research integrates issues from Trophic level, Boreogadus saida, Forage fish and Pusa hispida.
