Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Genus

Barbara Helm mainly investigates Ecology, Circadian rhythm, Climate change, Ecosystem and Habitat. Her Ecology study frequently links to related topics such as Zoology. Her Zoology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Ecomorphology, Allometry and Adaptive value.

The concepts of her Circadian rhythm study are interwoven with issues in Garden warbler, Zugunruhe and Sparrow. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Food security, Circannual rhythm and Phenology. Barbara Helm has researched Ecosystem in several fields, including Population growth, Agriculture and Biodiversity.

Her most cited work include:

  • Phenology, seasonal timing and circannual rhythms: towards a unified framework (211 citations)
  • Annual rhythms that underlie phenology: biological time-keeping meets environmental change (125 citations)
  • Urban-like night illumination reduces melatonin release in European blackbirds (Turdus merula): implications of city life for biological time-keeping of songbirds (107 citations)

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

Barbara Helm mostly deals with Ecology, Zoology, Circadian rhythm, Saxicola and Evolutionary biology. Her Ecology and Annual cycle, Climate change, Habitat, Captivity and Seasonal breeder investigations all form part of her Ecology research activities. Her Climate change research includes themes of Circannual rhythm and Phenology.

Her research in Circadian rhythm intersects with topics in Melatonin and Rhythm. Her Saxicola research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Subspecies and Zugunruhe. She has included themes like Adaptation, Genetics, Songbird and Quantitative genetics in her Evolutionary biology study.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (59.20%)
  • Zoology (29.60%)
  • Circadian rhythm (18.40%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Zoology (29.60%)
  • Parus (12.80%)
  • Ecology (59.20%)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Zoology, Parus, Ecology, Songbird and Evolutionary biology. Her work on Saxicola and Nest as part of general Zoology research is often related to Telomere, thus linking different fields of science. Her work is connected to Annual cycle, Climate change and Phenology, as a part of Ecology.

The various areas that Barbara Helm examines in her Climate change study include Ficedula, Chronobiology and Phenotypic plasticity. Her Songbird research includes elements of Wildlife, CLOCK, Urbanization, Adaptation and Circadian rhythm. Barbara Helm combines subjects such as Bird migration and Circannual rhythm with her study of Evolutionary biology.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Evolutionary response to climate change in migratory Pied flycatchers (36 citations)
  • Evolutionary response to climate change in migratory Pied flycatchers (36 citations)
  • Dose-response effects of light at night on the reproductive physiology of great tits (Parus major): Integrating morphological analyses with candidate gene expression (21 citations)
