Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Brett P. Murphy mostly deals with Ecology, Fire regime, Vegetation, Ecosystem and Rainforest. Much of his study explores Ecology relationship to Population size. Brett P. Murphy combines subjects such as Obligate, Climate classification, Monsoon and Physical geography with his study of Fire regime.

His Vegetation research integrates issues from Biomass, Agroforestry, Temperate climate and Disturbance. His study focuses on the intersection of Ecosystem and fields such as Woody plant with connections in the field of Shrub, Shrubland, Land management, Grassland and Land use. His Rainforest research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Old-growth forest, Epicormic shoot and Alternative stable state.

His most cited work include:

  • What controls the distribution of tropical forest and savanna (250 citations)
  • Savanna woody encroachment is widespread across three continents. (216 citations)
  • Fire regimes of Australia: A pyrogeographic model system (143 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Fire regime, Vegetation, Tropical savanna climate and Biodiversity. His study in Mammal, Threatened species, Fire ecology, Predation and Herbivore are all subfields of Ecology. His Fire regime study combines topics in areas such as Biomass, Mediterranean climate, Monsoon and Climate change.

His Vegetation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Agroforestry, Alternative stable state, Physical geography and Disturbance. He works mostly in the field of Agroforestry, limiting it down to topics relating to Land management and, in certain cases, Greenhouse gas. His Tropical savanna climate research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Boreal, Dry season, Dominance, Woodland and Prescribed burn.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (82.14%)
  • Fire regime (29.29%)
  • Vegetation (28.57%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Ecology (82.14%)
  • Predation (10.71%)
  • Feral cat (8.57%)

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

Brett P. Murphy spends much of his time researching Ecology, Predation, Feral cat, Tropical savanna climate and Mammal. He integrates Ecology and Context in his research. His Predation study incorporates themes from Biodiversity and Monsoon.

The Feral cat study combines topics in areas such as Rattus fuscipes and Brushtail possum. Brett P. Murphy interconnects Microsite, Agronomy, Seedling, Biome and Nutrient in the investigation of issues within Tropical savanna climate. His Mammal study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Niche and Arboreal locomotion.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Habitat structural complexity explains patterns of feral cat and dingo occurrence in monsoonal Australia (9 citations)
  • We need to worry about Bella and Charlie: The impacts of pet cats on Australian wildlife (8 citations)
  • Bottom-up and top-down processes influence contemporary patterns of mammal species richness in Australia's monsoonal tropics (6 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Context, Predation, Feral cat and Habitat. His Habitat research incorporates themes from Herbivore, Northern australia, Dingo, Structural complexity and Monsoon. Brett P. Murphy has included themes like Tropical savanna climate, Woodland, Grazing and Disturbance in his Herbivore study.

Brett P. Murphy has researched Dingo in several fields, including Abundance, Apex predator, Occupancy, Mammal and Species richness. His studies in Wildlife integrate themes in fields like Zoology and Threatened species. Brett P. Murphy has included themes like Biomass and Invertebrate in his Biodiversity study.
