What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Ecosystem
- Predation
His main research concerns Dreissena, Ecology, Zebra mussel, Benthic zone and Quagga mussel.
In his study, Pelagic zone is inextricably linked to Bay, which falls within the broad field of Dreissena.
Thomas F. Nalepa interconnects Population density, Fishery and Dry weight in the investigation of issues within Ecology.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Oceanography and Cryptomonas in addition to Zebra mussel.
His work deals with themes such as Invertebrate, Deepwater sculpin and Sphaeriidae, which intersect with Benthic zone.
Thomas F. Nalepa combines subjects such as Neogobius, Goby, Round goby and Introduced species with his study of Quagga mussel.
His most cited work include:
- Zebra mussels : biology, impacts, and control (506 citations)
- Dispersal and emerging ecological impacts of Ponto-Caspian species in the Laurentian Great Lakes. (488 citations)
- Zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) selective filtration promoted toxic Microcystis blooms in Saginaw Bay (Lake Huron) and Lake Erie (410 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Dreissena, Benthic zone, Zebra mussel and Fishery.
His Quagga mussel study, which is part of a larger body of work in Dreissena, is frequently linked to Hydrobiology, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His Benthic zone research integrates issues from Competition, Invertebrate, Chironomidae and Sphaeriidae.
The various areas that Thomas F. Nalepa examines in his Zebra mussel study include Seston, Oceanography and Cryptomonas.
His Fishery research incorporates themes from Unionidae, Predation, Invasive species, Ecosystem and Coregonus clupeaformis.
His work in Biomass addresses issues such as Phytoplankton, which are connected to fields such as Productivity.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (71.54%)
- Dreissena (46.15%)
- Benthic zone (35.38%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?
- Ecology (71.54%)
- Benthic zone (35.38%)
- Fishery (23.08%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Thomas F. Nalepa mainly focuses on Ecology, Benthic zone, Fishery, Dreissena and Biomass.
His Ecology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Drainage basin and Aquatic animal.
His Benthic zone study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Bay, Competition and Quagga mussel.
Thomas F. Nalepa works mostly in the field of Quagga mussel, limiting it down to topics relating to Zebra mussel and, in certain cases, Seston and Nutrient excretion, as a part of the same area of interest.
The concepts of his Fishery study are interwoven with issues in Dreissena rostriformis and Alewife.
His Biomass study combines topics in areas such as Phytoplankton, Forage fish and Plankton.
Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Changing Ecosystem Dynamics in the Laurentian Great Lakes: Bottom-Up and Top-Down Regulation (175 citations)
- The future of species invasions in the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence River basin (56 citations)
- Changes in the Lake Michigan food web following dreissenid mussel invasions: A synthesis (54 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Ecosystem
- Predation
Thomas F. Nalepa mainly investigates Ecology, Fishery, Dreissena, Quagga mussel and Biomass.
His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Drainage basin and Ecology.
Thomas F. Nalepa works mostly in the field of Fishery, limiting it down to topics relating to Alewife and, in certain cases, Coregonus clupeaformis, Food web and Deepwater sculpin.
His work carried out in the field of Dreissena brings together such families of science as Benthic zone and Zebra mussel.
His Zebra mussel study incorporates themes from Hydrology, Benthos, Water column and Dreissena rostriformis.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Phytoplankton and Ecosystem.
