What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Predation, Extinction, Zoology and Carnivore.
His study in Carnassial, Herbivore, Trophic level, Trophic cascade and Ecosystem is carried out as part of his studies in Ecology.
His work carried out in the field of Predation brings together such families of science as Megafauna, Canis, Anatomy and Interspecific competition.
His studies in Extinction integrate themes in fields like Beringia, Pleistocene and Gray wolf.
His work on Osteology as part of general Zoology research is frequently linked to Digging, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.
His Carnivore study incorporates themes from Claw, Competition and Arboreal locomotion.
His most cited work include:
- Collapse of the world's largest herbivores. (475 citations)
- Skeletal indicators of locomotor behavior in living and extinct carnivores (237 citations)
- Trophic diversity in past and present guilds of large predatory mammals (214 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Blaire Van Valkenburgh spends much of his time researching Ecology, Zoology, Predation, Anatomy and Carnivore.
His Ecology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Pleistocene and Extinction.
His Zoology research includes elements of Fossil Record, Tooth wear and Canis.
His research in Predation intersects with topics in Tooth Fracture, Species richness, Guild and Interspecific competition.
His Anatomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Olfaction and Allometry.
His Carnivore research focuses on Carnassial and how it connects with Dentition.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (41.00%)
- Zoology (36.00%)
- Predation (30.00%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?
- Zoology (36.00%)
- Olfaction (12.00%)
- Predation (30.00%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of study are Zoology, Olfaction, Predation, Cribriform plate and Evolutionary biology.
His studies deal with areas such as Pleistocene, Extinction and Canis as well as Zoology.
His Olfaction research incorporates themes from Obligate, Olfactory system and Anatomy, Nasal cavity.
His Predation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Dental enamel and Competition.
His Carnivore research incorporates elements of Guild and Tooth Fracture.
Blaire Van Valkenburgh works mostly in the field of Guild, limiting it down to concerns involving Tooth wear and, occasionally, Ecology.
Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Olfaction written in bone: cribriform plate size parallels olfactory receptor gene repertoires in Mammalia (55 citations)
- Are we eating the world's megafauna to extinction? (44 citations)
- Distinct Predatory Behaviors in Scimitar- and Dirk-Toothed Sabertooth Cats. (11 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Zoology, Carnivore, Predation, Evolutionary biology and Olfaction.
Blaire Van Valkenburgh has included themes like Range, Biological dispersal and Canis in his Zoology study.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Predator, Tooth Fracture and Interspecific competition.
His research integrates issues of Cortical bone, Adaptation, Postcrania, Guild and Canine tooth in his study of Predation.
His Evolutionary biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cribriform plate, Skull, Olfactory receptor and Snout.
His research investigates the connection with Olfaction and areas like Sensory system which intersect with concerns in Nasal cavity and Sniffing.
