What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
Wim Vyverman mainly focuses on Ecology, Diatom, Biological dispersal, Species richness and Biogeography.
His study in Phytoplankton, Ecosystem, Biodiversity, Benthic zone and Plankton are all subfields of Ecology.
The Phytoplankton study combines topics in areas such as Deltaproteobacteria, Salinity, Zooplankton, Estuary and Epilimnion.
His Phaeodactylum tricornutum study in the realm of Diatom connects with subjects such as Context.
In his work, Phylogeography and Cosmopolitan distribution is strongly intertwined with Isolation by distance, which is a subfield of Biological dispersal.
His study in Species richness is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Macrophyte and Community structure.
His most cited work include:
- The Phaeodactylum genome reveals the evolutionary history of diatom genomes (1151 citations)
- Body size and dispersal mode as key traits determining metacommunity structure of aquatic organisms (387 citations)
- The power of species sorting: Local factors drive bacterial community composition over a wide range of spatial scales (343 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Ecology, Diatom, Oceanography, Phytoplankton and Botany are his primary areas of study.
His Ecology research focuses on Biological dispersal and how it connects with Biogeography.
His research in Diatom intersects with topics in Taxon, Taxonomy, Sexual reproduction and Algae.
His Sexual reproduction study combines topics in areas such as Mating type, Mating and Sex pheromone.
Wim Vyverman studied Phytoplankton and Estuary that intersect with Brackish water.
His Holocene study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Glacier and Glacial period.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (47.37%)
- Diatom (31.83%)
- Oceanography (18.80%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?
- Diatom (31.83%)
- Ecology (47.37%)
- Benthic zone (11.53%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Wim Vyverman focuses on Diatom, Ecology, Benthic zone, Sexual reproduction and Bacteria.
His Diatom research focuses on Phaeodactylum tricornutum in particular.
The various areas that Wim Vyverman examines in his Ecology study include Biological dispersal and Genome.
His Benthic zone study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Gene family, Thalassiosira pseudonana, Algae, Biological system and Chlorophyll fluorescence.
The concepts of his Thalassiosira pseudonana study are interwoven with issues in Photoprotection, Botany and Plankton.
While the research belongs to areas of Sexual reproduction, he spends his time largely on the problem of Sex pheromone, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Pheromone and Mating.
Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Urbanization drives cross-taxon declines in abundance and diversity at multiple spatial scales. (33 citations)
- Tolerance of pennate diatoms (Bacillariophyceae) to experimental freezing: comparison of polar and temperate strains (24 citations)
- Diatom-Bacteria Interactions Modulate the Composition and Productivity of Benthic Diatom Biofilms. (16 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
His primary areas of investigation include Diatom, Ecology, Algae, Benthic zone and Sexual reproduction.
His Diatom research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Evolutionary biology, Phytoplankton, Primary producers, Biomass and Species complex.
Ecology is frequently linked to Biological dispersal in his study.
Wim Vyverman has included themes like Nutrient, Chlorophyll fluorescence, Extreme environment and Chlorophyll a in his Algae study.
Wim Vyverman focuses mostly in the field of Benthic zone, narrowing it down to topics relating to Thalassiosira weissflogii and, in certain cases, Mating and Phaeodactylum tricornutum.
His Sexual reproduction study which covers Sex pheromone that intersects with Gene, Reproduction, Pheromone and Meiosis.
