Overview

Stuart R. Jenkins is affiliated with Bangor University in the United Kingdom and has a research portfolio primarily focused on environmental science and earth and planetary sciences. Their work spans multiple interconnected fields, with a significant emphasis on oceanography and ecology.

Their publication record includes studies on marine and coastal ecosystems, reflecting main topics such as marine biology and ecology research, marine and coastal plant biology, coral and marine ecosystem studies, coastal wetland ecosystem dynamics, and the impact of light on the environment and health. Research themes also cover marine ecology and invasive species as well as marine and fisheries research.

Frequent venues for their publications include:

  • The Science of The Total Environment
  • ICES Journal of Marine Science
  • Biological Invasions
  • Marine Pollution Bulletin
  • Global Change Biology

Jenkins has collaborated repeatedly with a group of co-authors, suggesting ongoing research partnerships. These frequent co-authors include:

  • Tasman P. Crowe
  • Ronaldo Adriano Christofoletti
  • Paul R. Brooks
  • Thomas W. Davies
  • Michael T. Burrows

Recent publications cover a range of environmental and ecological topics. Notable papers include:

  • Metal pollution as a potential threat to shell strength and survival in marine bivalves, 2020, The Science of The Total Environment
  • Artificial shorelines lack natural structural complexity across scales, 2021, Proceedings of the Royal Society B Biological Sciences
  • Artificial skyglow disrupts celestial migration at night, 2020, Current Biology
  • Using structured eradication feasibility assessment to prioritize the management of new and emerging invasive alien species in Europe, 2020, Global Change Biology
  • Quantification of blue carbon pathways contributing to negative feedback on climate change following glacier retreat in West Antarctic fjords, 2021, Global Change Biology

Their work is multidisciplinary, integrating aspects of environmental science with ocean engineering and nature and landscape conservation in subfields of study. This suggests a broad and systemic approach to addressing marine ecological and environmental challenges through both theoretical and applied research.

Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

For those fascinated by Ecology and Evolution, pursuing related online degrees can open diverse career pathways. Interdisciplinary fields such as environmental science, public health, and biological research often require advanced credentials. Today, flexible online degree programs make upskilling more accessible than ever, allowing you to tailor your education to your goals and schedule.

Fast-track programs are particularly popular. For example, nurses looking to quickly advance their qualifications can consider the fastest rn to bsn program, which accelerates learning for those holding an associate degree. Graduates aiming to become nurse practitioners may benefit from adn to np bridge programs, moving directly from an ADN to a master's degree.

If you are new to nursing or healthcare but have a degree in another field, online msn programs for non nurses provide pathways into advanced roles beyond traditional science careers. Choosing the right online degree matters; compare options such as capella rn to bsn vs chamberlain rn to bsn to find the best fit for your career ambitions.

Exploring these flexible, accredited online programs can help you transition into fields where ecology, evolution, and health intersect, expanding your impact and career options.
