Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Zoology

Ben J. Hatchwell mostly deals with Ecology, Cooperative breeding, Zoology, Reproductive success and Demography. His work carried out in the field of Ecology brings together such families of science as Helping behavior and Biological dispersal. In his work, Kinship is strongly intertwined with Evolutionary biology, which is a subfield of Cooperative breeding.

His research integrates issues of Prunella modularis and Uria aalge in his study of Reproductive success. The concepts of his Demography study are interwoven with issues in Brood and Sparrow. His Mating research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Passerine and Paternal care.

His most cited work include:

  • Parental care and mating behaviour of polyandrous dunnocks Prunella modularis related to paternity by DNA fingerprinting (451 citations)
  • Ecological constraints, life history traits and the evolution of cooperative breeding. (353 citations)
  • Avian productivity in urban landscapes: a review and meta‐analysis (342 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Cooperative breeding, Demography, Aegithalos caudatus and Zoology. His Ecology study combines topics in areas such as Biological dispersal and Reproductive success. Ben J. Hatchwell focuses mostly in the field of Cooperative breeding, narrowing it down to matters related to Kin selection and, in some cases, Inclusive fitness, Kinship, Kin recognition and Sociality.

His Demography research focuses on subjects like Paternal care, which are linked to Parental investment and Investment. While the research belongs to areas of Aegithalos caudatus, Ben J. Hatchwell spends his time largely on the problem of Flock, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Communal roosting. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Prunella modularis and Uria aalge.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (64.14%)
  • Cooperative breeding (33.10%)
  • Demography (28.28%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Ecology (64.14%)
  • Cooperative breeding (33.10%)
  • Kin selection (19.31%)

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

Ecology, Cooperative breeding, Kin selection, Evolutionary biology and Demography are his primary areas of study. His studies deal with areas such as Density dependence, Population size and Reproductive success as well as Ecology. Ben J. Hatchwell combines subjects such as Kin recognition, Social psychology, Contact call and Acanthisitta chloris with his study of Cooperative breeding.

His Kin selection research incorporates themes from Kinship, Inclusive fitness, Aegithalos caudatus, Investment and Social group. His research in Evolutionary biology intersects with topics in Passerine, Ecology, Biological dispersal and Replication. His Demography study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Brood and Sex ratio.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Coordinated parental provisioning is related to feeding rate and reproductive success in a songbird (50 citations)
  • Demographic routes to variability and regulation in bird populations (43 citations)
  • Helping in cooperatively breeding long-tailed tits: a test of Hamilton's rule. (36 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Zoology

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Kin selection, Cooperative breeding, Demography and Inclusive fitness. His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Density dependence and Population size. His work deals with themes such as Kinship, Aegithalos caudatus, Investment and Social group, which intersect with Kin selection.

His Cooperative breeding study incorporates themes from Longevity, Life history theory, Sociable weaver and Reproduction. His research in Demography focuses on subjects like Reproductive success, which are connected to Sexual conflict, Songbird, Nest, Parental investment and Paternal care. His Inclusive fitness research integrates issues from Altruism, Sociality and Empirical research.
