Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

His main research concerns Hydrology, Floodplain, Ecology, Plankton and Flood myth. The study of Hydrology is intertwined with the study of Eutrophication in a number of ways. His study in Floodplain focuses on Floodplain restoration in particular.

His Plankton research focuses on Phytoplankton and how it connects with δ13C and Total organic carbon. His research integrates issues of Hydrology and Aquifer in his study of Flood myth. As a member of one scientific family, Thomas Hein mostly works in the field of Surface water, focusing on Ecosystem and, on occasion, Water column.

His most cited work include:

  • Zooplankton biomass and community structure in a Danube River floodplain system: effects of hydrology (198 citations)
  • HYDROLOGICAL CONNECTIVITY AND FLOOD PULSES AS THE CENTRAL ASPECTS FOR THE INTEGRITY OF A RIVER-FLOODPLAIN SYSTEM (174 citations)
  • Allochthonous and autochthonous particulate organic matter in floodplains of the River Danube: the importance of hydrological connectivity (140 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Hydrology, Floodplain, Ecology, Ecosystem and Nutrient. His Hydrology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sediment, Biogeochemical cycle and Eutrophication. His Floodplain study incorporates themes from Phytoplankton, Ecosystem services, Surface water and Plankton.

The Ecosystem services study which covers Biodiversity that intersects with Ecosystem-based management. Thomas Hein has researched Ecosystem in several fields, including Biomass, Aquatic ecosystem and Environmental resource management. His Nutrient research integrates issues from Environmental chemistry and Hydrobiology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hydrology (42.29%)
  • Floodplain (37.71%)
  • Ecology (28.00%)

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

  • Ecosystem (20.00%)
  • Hydrology (42.29%)
  • Nutrient (14.29%)

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

Thomas Hein mainly investigates Ecosystem, Hydrology, Nutrient, Floodplain and Aquatic ecosystem. His Ecosystem study deals with the bigger picture of Ecology. His Hydrology research incorporates themes from Carbon sequestration and Sediment.

His studies in Nutrient integrate themes in fields like Environmental chemistry, Dissolved organic carbon and Macrophyte. Thomas Hein specializes in Floodplain, namely Floodplain restoration. His Ecosystem services study combines topics in areas such as Flood myth, Freshwater ecosystem and Environmental resource management.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Exploring variability in environmental impact risk from human activities across aquatic ecosystems (37 citations)
  • Linking biodiversity to ecosystem services supply: Patterns across aquatic ecosystems (20 citations)
  • Identification of conservation and restoration priority areas in the Danube River based on the multi-functionality of river-floodplain systems. (20 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

His primary areas of study are Ecosystem, Biodiversity, Ecosystem services, Ecology and Aquatic ecosystem. His Ecosystem study frequently links to other fields, such as Floodplain. Thomas Hein focuses mostly in the field of Floodplain, narrowing it down to topics relating to Threatened species and, in certain cases, Hydropower and Natura 2000.

Thomas Hein interconnects Ecosystem-based management and Environmental resource management in the investigation of issues within Biodiversity. His Ecology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as River management and Groundwater. The study incorporates disciplines such as Macrophyte, Marine ecosystem and Spatial planning in addition to Aquatic ecosystem.
