Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Biodiversity

Benjamin Gilbert mainly investigates Ecology, Ecological niche, Niche, Biological dispersal and Invasive species. Benjamin Gilbert has included themes like Sampling and Multivariate statistics in his Ecology study. As part of the same scientific family, Benjamin Gilbert usually focuses on Ecological niche, concentrating on Understory and intersecting with Niche differentiation, Niche segregation and Spatial ecology.

His work carried out in the field of Niche brings together such families of science as Spatial analysis, Neutral theory of molecular evolution, Propagule, Fern and Abiotic component. Benjamin Gilbert combines subjects such as Biodiversity, Coexistence theory and Introduced species, Native plant with his study of Invasive species. His studies in Introduced species integrate themes in fields like Ecology and Niche theory.

His most cited work include:

  • Increased temperature variation poses a greater risk to species than climate warming (464 citations)
  • Neutrality, niches, and dispersal in a temperate forest understory. (379 citations)
  • Plant invasions and the niche (312 citations)

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

Benjamin Gilbert spends much of his time researching Ecology, Biological dispersal, Competition, Biodiversity and Species diversity. Ecology is closely attributed to Metacommunity in his study. His work deals with themes such as Abiotic component and Interspecific competition, which intersect with Competition.

He works mostly in the field of Biodiversity, limiting it down to topics relating to Ecosystem and, in certain cases, Community structure and Invertebrate. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Evolutionary biology, Biomass, Functional diversity and Extinction. His research in Ecological niche intersects with topics in Niche differentiation, Invasive species, Introduced species and Understory.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (73.74%)
  • Biological dispersal (15.15%)
  • Competition (15.15%)

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

  • Ecology (73.74%)
  • Competition (15.15%)
  • Abiotic component (9.09%)

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

Benjamin Gilbert focuses on Ecology, Competition, Abiotic component, Biodiversity and Evolutionary biology. All of his Ecology and Invertebrate, Food web, Phenology, Community and Abundance investigations are sub-components of the entire Ecology study. Benjamin Gilbert interconnects Metacommunity, Ecological niche and Occupancy in the investigation of issues within Abundance.

Within one scientific family, Benjamin Gilbert focuses on topics pertaining to Ecosystem under Biodiversity, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Spatial ecology, Community structure and Spatial variability. His Evolutionary biology research focuses on subjects like Species diversity, which are linked to Neutral theory of molecular evolution. Benjamin Gilbert focuses mostly in the field of Beta diversity, narrowing it down to matters related to Global warming and, in some cases, Species richness.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Applying modern coexistence theory to priority effects. (28 citations)
  • The Invasion Criterion: A Common Currency for Ecological Research. (26 citations)
  • Temperature-dependent variation in the extrinsic incubation period elevates the risk of vector-borne disease emergence (10 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Ecosystem

Ecology, Competition, Coexistence theory, Zoology and Abiotic component are his primary areas of study. His work on Ecology deals in particular with Trophic cascade, Biodiversity, Ecosystem services, Ecosystem and Spatial ecology. The various areas that Benjamin Gilbert examines in his Coexistence theory study include Microeconomics and Competitive exclusion.

Zoology connects with themes related to Range in his study. His Abiotic component research integrates issues from Fecundity and Annual plant. His study in Interspecific competition is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Abundance, Ecological systems theory and Macroecology.
