Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Phytoplankton
  • Algae

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Plankton, Oceanography, Phytoplankton and Mediterranean sea. Urania Christaki has included themes like Autotroph, Heterotroph and Synechococcus in her Ecology study. Urania Christaki usually deals with Plankton and limits it to topics linked to Algae and Mixotroph, Grazing, Chlorophyll a and Algal bloom.

Her work carried out in the field of Oceanography brings together such families of science as High-Nutrient, low-chlorophyll, Ocean fertilization, Food web and Carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere, Carbon dioxide. Her Phytoplankton research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Environmental chemistry, Carbon cycle and Carbon sequestration. Her studies in Zooplankton integrate themes in fields like Trophic level and Deep chlorophyll maximum.

Her most cited work include:

  • Effect of natural iron fertilization on carbon sequestration in the Southern Ocean (551 citations)
  • Plankton in the open Mediterranean Sea: a review (373 citations)
  • Plankton in the open Mediterranean Sea: a review (373 citations)

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

Urania Christaki mainly focuses on Ecology, Phytoplankton, Oceanography, Plankton and Bloom. Her work on Ecology is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Heterotroph. Urania Christaki interconnects Diatom, Botany and Autotroph in the investigation of issues within Phytoplankton.

Her research in Oceanography intersects with topics in Chlorophyll a, Abundance, Microbial food web and Mediterranean sea. Urania Christaki has included themes like Microbial population biology and Deep chlorophyll maximum in her Microbial food web study. Urania Christaki combines subjects such as Relative species abundance, Cercozoa, Algae, Ciliate and Syndiniales with her study of Plankton.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (62.64%)
  • Phytoplankton (53.85%)
  • Oceanography (45.05%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Ecology (62.64%)
  • Phytoplankton (53.85%)
  • Bloom (24.18%)

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

Urania Christaki mainly investigates Ecology, Phytoplankton, Bloom, Oceanography and Plankton. Her work on Trophic level, Diatom, Ecosystem and Syndiniales as part of general Ecology study is frequently linked to Pyrosequencing, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. Her studies deal with areas such as Carbon cycle, Temperate climate and Predation as well as Phytoplankton.

In her research on the topic of Bloom, Deep sea, Carbon fixation and Microorganism is strongly related with Carbon sequestration. Her work on Mesopelagic zone as part of general Oceanography research is often related to Environmental science, thus linking different fields of science. Her study in Plankton is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Relative species abundance and Haptophyte.

Between 2014 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Shifts in bacterial community composition associated with increased carbon cycling in a mosaic of phytoplankton blooms. (75 citations)
  • Composition of diatom communities and their contribution to plankton biomass in the naturally iron-fertilized region of Kerguelen in the Southern Ocean. (62 citations)
  • Seasonal variations of marine protist community structure based on taxon-specific traits using the eastern English Channel as a model coastal system. (29 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Phytoplankton
  • Ecosystem

Her primary areas of study are Ecology, Phytoplankton, Biomass, Abundance and Ecosystem. Biogeochemical cycle, Plankton, Diatom, Thalassionema nitzschioides and Biodiversity are the core of her Ecology study. Her Phytoplankton research focuses on Chaetoceros in particular.

Her Biomass research includes elements of Water column, Rhizaria and Anoxic waters. Her Abundance research incorporates elements of Estuary, Oceanography, Synechococcus and Chlorophyll a. Her work carried out in the field of Ecosystem brings together such families of science as Trophic level, Microbial ecology, Community structure and Iron fertilization.
