Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Photosynthesis
  • Phytoplankton

His primary areas of investigation include Phytoplankton, Ecology, Plankton, Algae and Exopolymer. The Phytoplankton study combines topics in areas such as Axenic, Epilimnion, Ecosystem and Eutrophication. Tom Berman combines topics linked to Animal science with his work on Ecology.

His Plankton study deals with Botany intersecting with Autotroph and Vibrio. His work in Algae covers topics such as Chlorophyll which are related to areas like Coastal zone, Primary productivity and Downwelling. His Exopolymer study also includes

  • Biofilm that intertwine with fields like Membrane fouling and Environmental chemistry,
  • Membrane that intertwine with fields like Environmental engineering, Biofilm growth, Filtration and Microbiology,
  • Biophysics which intersects with area such as Microorganism and Organic chemicals.

His most cited work include:

  • Dissolved organic nitrogen: a dynamic participant in aquatic ecosystems (426 citations)
  • Differential Growth Response of Colony-Forming α- and γ-Proteobacteria in Dilution Culture and Nutrient Addition Experiments from Lake Kinneret (Israel), the Eastern Mediterranean Sea, and the Gulf of Eilat (186 citations)
  • Grazing, growth, and ammonium excretion rates of a heterotrophic microflagellate fed with four species of bacteria. (167 citations)

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

Tom Berman mostly deals with Phytoplankton, Ecology, Environmental chemistry, Oceanography and Botany. His Phytoplankton research incorporates elements of Plankton, Photosynthesis, Eutrophication and Algae. Tom Berman interconnects Pediastrum and Chlorophyll in the investigation of issues within Algae.

His Environmental chemistry research includes elements of Hypolimnion, Exopolymer and Respiration. His Oceanography study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Photic zone, Secchi disk and Mediterranean sea. His research in Botany intersects with topics in Cyanobacteria and Heterotroph.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Phytoplankton (40.40%)
  • Ecology (36.36%)
  • Environmental chemistry (24.24%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2016)?

  • Environmental engineering (10.10%)
  • Exopolymer (12.12%)
  • Environmental chemistry (24.24%)

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

Tom Berman spends much of his time researching Environmental engineering, Exopolymer, Environmental chemistry, Filtration and Biofouling. The Exopolymer study combines topics in areas such as Membrane, Oceanography, Photic zone and Biofilm. Tom Berman has researched Environmental chemistry in several fields, including Chlorophyll and Surface water.

His research investigates the link between Chlorophyll and topics such as Microcosm that cross with problems in Zooplankton and Phytoplankton. His work in Phytoplankton is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Photosynthesis. His Aquatic ecosystem course of study focuses on Microbial ecology and Ecology.

Between 2004 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • Revised paradigm of aquatic biofilm formation facilitated by microgel transparent exopolymer particles (103 citations)
  • Transparent exopolymer particles (TEP): A critical factor in aquatic biofilm initiation and fouling on filtration membranes (90 citations)
  • Don't fall foul of biofilm through high TEP levels (79 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Photosynthesis
  • Algae

His primary areas of study are Exopolymer, Biofilm, Environmental engineering, Membrane and Environmental chemistry. Tom Berman has included themes like Photic zone and Oceanography in his Exopolymer study. His Oceanography study combines topics in areas such as Phytoplankton, Total organic carbon and Surface water.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Microorganism, Biophysics and Organic chemicals. His study looks at the intersection of Environmental engineering and topics like Desalination with Biofilter, Sewage treatment, Water treatment and Chlorophyll. His study in Environmental chemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Diatom and Nutrient.
