About Gitai Yahel

Gitai Yahel, With an exceptional h-index of 25 and a recent h-index of 23 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at Ruppin Academic Center, specializes in the field of Nutritional ecology of suspension feeders, Sediment resuspension by fish, Benthic-pelagic coupling.

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

Nutrient concentration, loads and retention in a semiarid micro-estuary: The relative contribution of baseflow and flood events

Pesticides and pharmaceuticals data collected during two consecutive years in a Mediterranean micro-estuary

High variability and enhanced nocturnal oxygen uptake in coral reef sponges

Feeding on the smallest cells: an in situ study of picoplankton capture by bivalve molluscs from oligotrophic waters

The removal of dissolved organic matter by marine sponges is a function of its composition and concentration: An in situ seasonal study of four Mediterranean species

Invading bivalves replaced native Mediterranean bivalves, with little effect on the local benthic community

Differential clearance rates of microbial phylotypes by four appendicularian species

Invading bivalves replaced the native Levantine populations with negligible local effects on the benthic community
