Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Photosynthesis

His primary areas of study are Periphyton, Nutrient, Botany, Ecology and Environmental science. His Periphyton research integrates issues from Productivity, Canopy, River ecosystem and Primary producers. His research investigates the connection between Productivity and topics such as Snail that intersect with issues in Grazing, Gastropoda and Agronomy.

His specific area of interest is Ecology, where Walter R. Hill studies Ecosystem. While working on this project, Walter R. Hill studies both Environmental science and Seasonality. His Photosynthesis research incorporates themes from Phytoplankton and Algae.

His most cited work include:

  • 5 – Effects of Light (400 citations)
  • Light limitation in a stream ecosystem: responses by primary producers and consumers (343 citations)
  • Multiple Scales of Temporal Variability in Ecosystem Metabolism Rates: Results from 2 Years of Continuous Monitoring in a Forested Headwater Stream (267 citations)

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

Walter R. Hill mainly investigates Periphyton, Ecology, Nutrient, Environmental science and Botany. His study in Periphyton is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Photosynthesis, Productivity, Environmental chemistry and STREAMS. Walter R. Hill works mostly in the field of Nutrient, limiting it down to concerns involving Agronomy and, occasionally, Snail.

His Botany research includes elements of Elimia and Animal science. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Seasonality, Autotroph is strongly linked to Drainage basin. Walter R. Hill has researched Ecosystem in several fields, including Canopy and Deciduous.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Periphyton (71.43%)
  • Ecology (61.22%)
  • Nutrient (44.90%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2017)?

  • Ecology (61.22%)
  • Nutrient (44.90%)
  • Periphyton (71.43%)

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

Ecology, Nutrient, Periphyton, Aquatic plant and Botany are his primary areas of study. The Phenology, Ecosystem and Plankton research he does as part of his general Ecology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Environmental science and Asian carp, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. Walter R. Hill combines subjects such as Biomass, Productivity, Climate change, Autotroph and Diatom with his study of Ecosystem.

His study looks at the relationship between Nutrient and topics such as Elimia, which overlap with Animal science, Organic matter, Agronomy and Pleuroceridae. A large part of his Periphyton studies is devoted to Aufwuchs. His Botany study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Environmental chemistry and Food science.

Between 2008 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Can filter‐feeding Asian carp invade the Laurentian Great Lakes? A bioenergetic modelling exercise (87 citations)
  • Quantifying phosphorus and light effects in stream algae. (85 citations)
  • Light, nutrients and the fatty acid composition of stream periphyton (61 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Botany

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Nutrient, Botany, Periphyton, Ecology and Aquatic plant. His studies link Biogeochemical cycle with Nutrient. His study in the field of Dry weight is also linked to topics like Fatty acid synthesis, Polyunsaturated fatty acid and Content.

His Periphyton research is classified as research in Algae. His study in the field of Invasive species and Plankton also crosses realms of Bighead carp and Hypophthalmichthys. There are a combination of areas like Abiotic component, Eutrophication, Aquatic ecosystem, Autotroph and Freshwater ecosystem integrated together with his Aquatic plant study.
