Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Thomas Wernberg spends much of his time researching Ecology, Ecosystem, Climate change, Global warming and Habitat. His Kelp, Temperate climate, Kelp forest, Marine ecosystem and Effects of global warming on oceans study are his primary interests in Ecology. His Kelp forest study incorporates themes from Reef and Global change.

His work deals with themes such as Coral reef and Abiotic component, which intersect with Ecosystem. His work carried out in the field of Climate change brings together such families of science as Population growth, Range, Food security and Environmental resource management. Thomas Wernberg interconnects Biodiversity, Heat wave, Invertebrate and Sea surface temperature in the investigation of issues within Global warming.

His most cited work include:

  • Biodiversity redistribution under climate change: impacts on ecosystems and human well-being (941 citations)
  • An extreme climatic event alters marine ecosystem structure in a global biodiversity hotspot (584 citations)
  • Climate-driven regime shift of a temperate marine ecosystem. (475 citations)

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

Thomas Wernberg mainly focuses on Ecology, Kelp, Habitat, Kelp forest and Ecosystem. His work on Reef, Temperate climate, Climate change and Biodiversity as part of general Ecology study is frequently linked to Ecklonia radiata, bridging the gap between disciplines. His study on Kelp also encompasses disciplines like

  • Algae together with Dominance,
  • Biomass which is related to area like Coral reef.

His Habitat research integrates issues from Estuary, Fishery, Abundance and Species richness. The Kelp forest study which covers Seagrass that intersects with Aquatic plant. His research integrates issues of Ecology and Biological dispersal in his study of Ecosystem.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (113.19%)
  • Kelp (50.55%)
  • Habitat (44.32%)

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

  • Ecology (113.19%)
  • Kelp forest (42.12%)
  • Kelp (50.55%)

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

Thomas Wernberg mainly investigates Ecology, Kelp forest, Kelp, Climate change and Ecosystem. His is involved in several facets of Ecology study, as is seen by his studies on Reef, Temperate climate, Foundation species, Biodiversity and Global warming. In general Global warming, his work in Effects of global warming on oceans is often linked to Hotspot linking many areas of study.

His work on Macrocystis pyrifera is typically connected to Ecklonia radiata as part of general Kelp study, connecting several disciplines of science. He interconnects Marine ecosystem, Adaptability and Environmental resource management in the investigation of issues within Climate change. His Ecosystem study incorporates themes from Range, Genetic diversity, Habitat, Biomass and Adaptive capacity.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Marine heatwaves threaten global biodiversity and the provision of ecosystem services (235 citations)
  • A global assessment of marine heatwaves and their drivers (73 citations)
  • Status and Trends for the World's Kelp Forests (56 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Kelp, Ecosystem, Habitat and Climate change. His study in Ecology focuses on Foundation species and Biodiversity. His studies deal with areas such as Environmental change and Algae as well as Kelp.

His Ecosystem research integrates issues from Reef and Range. Specifically, his work in Habitat is concerned with the study of Kelp forest. His work carried out in the field of Climate change brings together such families of science as Great barrier reef, Adaptability and Environmental planning.
