Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Genus

His main research concerns Ecology, Oceanography, Arctic, Calanus and Zooplankton. His Ecology study frequently involves adjacent topics like Fjord. Many of his research projects under Oceanography are closely connected to Glacial period with Glacial period, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

Stig Falk-Petersen has researched Pelagic zone in several fields, including Trophic level and Food web. His Arctic study combines topics in areas such as Marine ecosystem, Climate change, Euphausia crystallorophias, Antarctic krill and Water mass. The various areas that Stig Falk-Petersen examines in his Calanus study include Calanus finmarchicus and Atlantic water.

His most cited work include:

  • The marine ecosystem of Kongsfjorden, Svalbard (464 citations)
  • Timing of blooms, algal food quality and Calanus glacialis reproduction and growth in a changing Arctic (347 citations)
  • Lipids and life strategy of Arctic Calanus (297 citations)

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

Stig Falk-Petersen mainly focuses on Oceanography, Ecology, Arctic, Zooplankton and Calanus. His biological study deals with issues like Calanus finmarchicus, which deal with fields such as Fatty alcohol. His Trophic level, Phytoplankton, Biomass, Algal bloom and Copepod study are his primary interests in Ecology.

His work deals with themes such as Abundance, Water mass, Climate change and Ecosystem, which intersect with Arctic. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Polar night, Krill, Pelagic zone, Plankton and Diel vertical migration. His Sea ice research focuses on subjects like Bloom, which are linked to Spring bloom.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (62.88%)
  • Ecology (56.33%)
  • Arctic (42.36%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Arctic (42.36%)
  • Oceanography (62.88%)
  • Ecology (56.33%)

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

His primary areas of study are Arctic, Oceanography, Ecology, Zooplankton and Trophic level. His study in Arctic is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Range, Lead, Marine ecosystem, Climate change and Calanus. His research on Oceanography often connects related topics like Copepod.

His Ecology research integrates issues from Ontogeny and Leptoclinus maculatus. His research integrates issues of Calanus finmarchicus, Polar night, Biomass, Pelagic zone and Plankton in his study of Zooplankton. His Trophic level research includes elements of Balaenoptera and Fatty acid.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The importance of tidewater glaciers for marine mammals and seabirds in Svalbard, Norway (143 citations)
  • Unexpected Levels of Biological Activity during the Polar Night Offer New Perspectives on a Warming Arctic. (94 citations)
  • In the dark: A review of ecosystem processes during the Arctic polar night (92 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Genus

His scientific interests lie mostly in Arctic, Oceanography, Ecology, Zooplankton and Polar night. He interconnects Photosynthetically active radiation, Water column and Absorption of water in the investigation of issues within Arctic. His research investigates the link between Oceanography and topics such as Calanus that cross with problems in Pelagic zone.

His Zooplankton research incorporates elements of Calanus finmarchicus and Plankton. His Polar night study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Diel vertical migration and Gelatinous zooplankton. Stig Falk-Petersen focuses mostly in the field of Sea ice, narrowing it down to topics relating to Water mass and, in certain cases, Estuarine water circulation and Phytoplankton.
