Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • IUCN Red List
  • Habitat

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Habitat, Biological dispersal, Pika and Biodiversity. Endangered species, IUCN Red List and Range are the primary areas of interest in his Ecology study. His Endangered species study combines topics in areas such as Conservation status, Endemism, Species diversity and Marine biology.

His IUCN Red List research incorporates elements of Least concern, Data deficient, Threatened species, Threatened fauna of Australia and Red List Index. His study looks at the intersection of Habitat and topics like Extinction with American pika. As part of the same scientific family, he usually focuses on Biodiversity, concentrating on Keystone species and intersecting with Introduced species, Ochotona curzoniae, Plateau and Species richness.

His most cited work include:

  • The status of the world's land and marine mammals: diversity, threat, and knowledge (1045 citations)
  • The Impact of Conservation on the Status of the World’s Vertebrates (972 citations)
  • A Guide to the Mammals of China (331 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Zoology, Pika, American pika and Habitat. Andrew T. Smith is studying Biodiversity, which is a component of Ecology. His Biodiversity research incorporates themes from Endangered species and Keystone species.

His Zoology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Taxon and Litter. Andrew T. Smith interconnects Mammal, Species richness and Grazing in the investigation of issues within Pika. His American pika study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Range, Climate change and Foraging.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (57.14%)
  • Zoology (28.57%)
  • Pika (28.57%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Ecology (57.14%)
  • Pika (28.57%)
  • American pika (18.37%)

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

Andrew T. Smith mostly deals with Ecology, Pika, American pika, Ochotona curzoniae and Range. His Ecology research integrates issues from Biological dispersal and Metapopulation. His study in American pika is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Evolutionary biology, Genetics, Climate change and Occupancy.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Burrow and Alpine-steppe. The various areas that Andrew T. Smith examines in his Range study include Lepus townsendii, White-tailed jackrabbit, Black-tailed jackrabbit, Lepus californicus and Jackrabbit. The Habitat study combines topics in areas such as Behavioral ecology and Foraging.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • The pika and the watershed: The impact of small mammal poisoning on the ecohydrology of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (63 citations)
  • Herbivory and Competition of Tibetan Steppe Vegetation in Winter Pasture: Effects of Livestock Exclosure and Plateau Pika Reduction. (36 citations)
  • A Review of the Economic, Social, and Environmental Impacts of China’s South–North Water Transfer Project: A Sustainability Perspective (28 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • IUCN Red List
  • Habitat

His scientific interests lie mostly in Pika, Ecology, Water transfer, Keystone species and Ecosystem engineer. Andrew T. Smith combines subjects such as Rangeland, Pasture, Competition, Vegetation and Grazing with his study of Pika. His work is connected to Steppe and Exclosure, as a part of Ecology.

Andrew T. Smith integrates many fields, such as Water transfer, Penman–Monteith equation, Aqueduct, Penman equation, Sustainability and Business, in his works. The concepts of his Keystone species study are interwoven with issues in Biodiversity, Ochotona curzoniae, Species richness, Grassland and Ecohydrology. His Ecosystem engineer study typically links adjacent topics like Burrow.
