Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

William W. L. Cheung mostly deals with Fishery, Climate change, Marine ecosystem, Fishing and Fisheries management. William W. L. Cheung has researched Fishery in several fields, including Ecology and Marine fish. His Climate change research entails a greater understanding of Oceanography.

His research integrates issues of Abundance and Ocean acidification in his study of Marine ecosystem. His study in Fishing is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Coral reef, Endangered species, Exclusive economic zone, Overexploitation and Vulnerability index. His Fisheries management research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Overfishing and Threatened species.

His most cited work include:

  • Scenarios for global biodiversity in the 21st Century (1215 citations)
  • Projecting global marine biodiversity impacts under climate change scenarios (949 citations)
  • A mid-term analysis of progress toward international biodiversity targets (701 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Climate change, Fishery, Fishing, Marine ecosystem and Ecology. His Climate change research incorporates elements of Ecosystem, Ecosystem services and Environmental resource management. The study incorporates disciplines such as Biodiversity and Sustainability in addition to Fishery.

Fishing is closely attributed to Exclusive economic zone in his work. His work investigates the relationship between Marine ecosystem and topics such as Ocean acidification that intersect with problems in Greenhouse gas. His work in Fisheries management addresses issues such as Overfishing, which are connected to fields such as Habitat destruction.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climate change (50.67%)
  • Fishery (48.43%)
  • Fishing (31.84%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Climate change (50.67%)
  • Fishery (48.43%)
  • Ecology (25.56%)

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

Climate change, Fishery, Ecology, Ecosystem and Fisheries management are his primary areas of study. His Climate change study is concerned with the larger field of Oceanography. The Fish stock and Fishing research William W. L. Cheung does as part of his general Fishery study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Blue carbon, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

His study in the field of Marine conservation, Overfishing, Threatened species and Large marine ecosystem is also linked to topics like Tropical pacific. His study in the field of Marine ecosystem and Biome also crosses realms of Energy flow. His Fisheries management research includes themes of Pelagic zone, Biogeochemical cycle and Scale.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A Roadmap for Using the UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development in Support of Science, Policy, and Action (46 citations)
  • Marine heatwaves exacerbate climate change impacts for fisheries in the northeast Pacific. (14 citations)
  • Levers and leverage points for pathways to sustainability (13 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Climate change

His primary areas of investigation include Climate change, Sustainability, Fishery, Fish stock and Ecosystem services. His research on Climate change often connects related topics like Ecosystem. His work on Marine ecosystem is typically connected to Oceanic basin as part of general Ecosystem study, connecting several disciplines of science.

William W. L. Cheung has included themes like Sustainable development, Fishing and Environmental planning in his Sustainability study. His work carried out in the field of Fishery brings together such families of science as Effects of global warming on oceans and Adaptive capacity. William W. L. Cheung combines subjects such as Global warming, Effects of global warming, Tropics and Tropical marine climate with his study of Fish stock.
