Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Genus

Her primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Biodiversity, Endemism, Taxon and Phylogeography. Her work in the fields of Ecology, such as Tropics, Biodiversity hotspot and Climate change, intersects with other areas such as Proceratophrys boiei. Her research in Climate change intersects with topics in Forest ecology and Ecological niche.

As a member of one scientific family, Ana Carolina Carnaval mostly works in the field of Biodiversity, focusing on Species richness and, on occasion, Montane ecology. Her Taxon study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Leptodactylidae, Habitat destruction, Habitat, Interspecific competition and Hylidae. Her Phylogeography research includes elements of Rainforest, Range, Biological dispersal and Biogeography.

Her most cited work include:

  • Stability Predicts Genetic Diversity in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest Hotspot (752 citations)
  • Historical climate modelling predicts patterns of current biodiversity in the Brazilian Atlantic forest (516 citations)
  • Prediction of phylogeographic endemism in an environmentally complex biome. (165 citations)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Phylogeography, Biodiversity, Taxon and Endemism. Ana Carolina Carnaval works mostly in the field of Ecology, limiting it down to topics relating to Biological dispersal and, in certain cases, Coalescent theory, as a part of the same area of interest. The study incorporates disciplines such as Zoology, Species distribution, Spatial ecology and Genetic diversity in addition to Phylogeography.

Her work on Biodiversity hotspot as part of her general Biodiversity study is frequently connected to Environmental resource management, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. The Taxon study combines topics in areas such as Evolutionary biology, Leptodactylidae, Predation and Hylidae. Her Endemism research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Taxonomy, Lineage and Biogeography.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (91.95%)
  • Phylogeography (44.83%)
  • Biodiversity (47.13%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Ecology (91.95%)
  • Taxon (37.93%)
  • Evolutionary biology (20.69%)

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

Ana Carolina Carnaval mainly focuses on Ecology, Taxon, Evolutionary biology, Biodiversity and Endemism. Her study in Range, Atlantic forest, Species distribution and Lizard falls within the category of Ecology. Her Species distribution study combines topics in areas such as Vitreorana eurygnatha, Climate change, Environmental niche modelling and Vicariance.

Her Evolutionary biology study incorporates themes from Phylogeography, Coalescent theory, Monophyly and Molecular phylogenetics. Ana Carolina Carnaval interconnects Spatial ecology, Phylogenetic diversity and Species richness in the investigation of issues within Biodiversity. Her Endemism research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Lineage, Habitat and Biogeography.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Phylogeography of Atlantic Forest glassfrogs (Vitreorana): when geography, climate dynamics and rivers matter. (18 citations)
  • Phylogeography of Atlantic Forest glassfrogs (Vitreorana): when geography, climate dynamics and rivers matter. (18 citations)
  • A tale of two niches: methods, concepts, and evolution (9 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Habitat

Her main research concerns Ecology, Endemism, Biodiversity, Taxon and Species distribution. Her study in Atlantic forest and Microclimate is carried out as part of her studies in Ecology. Her Endemism research integrates issues from Clade and Biogeography.

Her studies in Biogeography integrate themes in fields like Range, Lineage, Species richness, Beta diversity and Community. She has included themes like Evolutionary biology, Habitat, Lizard, Anolis and National park in her Taxon study. Her Species distribution study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Spatial ecology, Vitreorana eurygnatha and Climate change.
