Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Habitat

Benjamin H. Letcher mainly focuses on Ecology, Salmo, Trout, Fishery and STREAMS. His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Biological dispersal and Extinction. Benjamin H. Letcher has researched Salmo in several fields, including Zoology, Genetics, Sexual maturity and Gene expression profiling.

He does research in Trout, focusing on Salvelinus specifically. His Fishery study incorporates themes from Juvenile, Discharge, Climate change and Habitat. His STREAMS research incorporates themes from Species richness, Fish species and Population dynamics of fisheries.

His most cited work include:

  • A critical review of adaptive genetic variation in Atlantic salmon: implications for conservation (341 citations)
  • Distance, flow and PCR inhibition: eDNA dynamics in two headwater streams (273 citations)
  • Alternative life histories shape brain gene expression profiles in males of the same population. (176 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Salmo, Fishery, Trout and Salvelinus. He has included themes like Zoology and Biological dispersal in his Ecology study. His study in Zoology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sexual maturity, Gene and Life history.

His Salmo study combines topics in areas such as Juvenile, Animal science and Seasonality. As a part of the same scientific study, Benjamin H. Letcher usually deals with the Trout, concentrating on STREAMS and frequently concerns with Fish species and Electrofishing. His Salvelinus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Spatial ecology, Population size, Metapopulation and Tributary.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (54.55%)
  • Salmo (30.58%)
  • Fishery (23.97%)

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

  • Ecology (54.55%)
  • Trout (25.62%)
  • Salvelinus (23.14%)

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

Benjamin H. Letcher focuses on Ecology, Trout, Salvelinus, Fishery and Climate change. The various areas that Benjamin H. Letcher examines in his Ecology study include Statistics and Reproductive success. He combines subjects such as Drainage basin and Deposition with his study of Trout.

His study in the fields of Fontinalis under the domain of Salvelinus overlaps with other disciplines such as Extinction vortex. The Fishery study combines topics in areas such as Fish migration and Habitat. His work deals with themes such as Streamflow, Salmo, Freshwater ecosystem and Precipitation, which intersect with Climate change.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Distance, flow and PCR inhibition: eDNA dynamics in two headwater streams (273 citations)
  • Basin‐scale phenology and effects of climate variability on global timing of initial seaward migration of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) (120 citations)
  • Modeling structured population dynamics using data from unmarked individuals (67 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Habitat

Ecology, Salvelinus, Trout, Climate change and Environmental change are his primary areas of study. His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both STREAMS and Reproductive success. His Salvelinus research focuses on Tributary and how it connects with Mark and recapture.

His Trout research integrates issues from River ecosystem, Biomass, Deposition and Environmental DNA. Benjamin H. Letcher has researched Climate change in several fields, including Salmo, Precipitation, Streamflow, Spatial ecology and Discharge. His Environmental change research includes elements of Population density, Metapopulation, Reproduction, Density dependence and Population size.
