Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Fishery

Wallace J. Nichols focuses on Fishery, Ecology, Bycatch, Sea turtle and Turtle. Wallace J. Nichols has included themes like Feces, Chaetomorpha, Plastic bag, Gracilariopsis lemaneiformis and Gracilaria in his Fishery study. Wallace J. Nichols studies Ecology, focusing on Habitat in particular.

Wallace J. Nichols works mostly in the field of Habitat, limiting it down to topics relating to Wildlife and, in certain cases, Foraging, Home range and Pollution. His work investigates the relationship between Bycatch and topics such as Biodiversity that intersect with problems in Seabird. His work carried out in the field of Turtle brings together such families of science as Wildlife conservation and Ecology.

His most cited work include:

  • Global research priorities for sea turtles: informing management and conservation in the 21st century (365 citations)
  • Global patterns of marine mammal, seabird, and sea turtle bycatch reveal taxa-specific and cumulative megafauna hotspots (204 citations)
  • Small-scale fisheries bycatch jeopardizes endangered Pacific loggerhead turtles. (181 citations)

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

Wallace J. Nichols spends much of his time researching Fishery, Ecology, Turtle, Habitat and Foraging. His biological study deals with issues like Endangered species, which deal with fields such as Animal ecology. Ecology and Rookery are commonly linked in his work.

His Turtle research incorporates themes from Wildlife conservation, Poacher, Bay and Population ecology. His research integrates issues of Microplastics, Life history and Wildlife in his study of Habitat. His study in Foraging is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Peninsula, Algae, Energetics and Oceanography, Tidal current.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Fishery (61.36%)
  • Ecology (56.82%)
  • Turtle (31.82%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2016)?

  • Ecology (56.82%)
  • Fishery (61.36%)
  • Habitat (34.09%)

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

His main research concerns Ecology, Fishery, Habitat, Sea turtle and Foraging. His study looks at the relationship between Ecology and topics such as Environmental planning, which overlap with Ecology. The concepts of his Fishery study are interwoven with issues in Wildlife conservation and Marine biology.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Productivity, Wildlife and Life history. His Sea turtle study incorporates themes from Bycatch, Critically endangered and Protected area. His work focuses on many connections between Foraging and other disciplines, such as Peninsula, that overlap with his field of interest in Flipper.

Between 2010 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • Global patterns of marine mammal, seabird, and sea turtle bycatch reveal taxa-specific and cumulative megafauna hotspots (204 citations)
  • Global research priorities to mitigate plastic pollution impacts on marine wildlife (166 citations)
  • Are we working towards global research priorities for management and conservation of sea turtles (116 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Biodiversity

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Environmental planning, Sea turtle, Turtle and Group based. His work in the fields of Bycatch overlaps with other areas such as Research questions. Part of his project on Bycatch includes research on Fishing and Fishery.

His Turtle research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Marine conservation and Ecology. His Seabird research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Biodiversity and Marine biology. His Marine debris research incorporates Wildlife and Habitat.
