Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Genus

Campbell O. Webb mainly focuses on Ecology, Taxon, Phylogenetic niche conservatism, Community structure and Supertree. In the subject of general Ecology, his work in Limiting similarity, Plant community and Biological pest control is often linked to Phylogenetic Pattern and Phylogenetic comparative methods, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His studies in Taxon integrate themes in fields like Community and Genus.

In most of his Phylogenetic niche conservatism studies, his work intersects topics such as Phylogenetic diversity. His research integrates issues of Evolutionary biology and Statistical hypothesis testing in his study of Community structure. His studies deal with areas such as Biological dispersal and Biogeography as well as Evolutionary biology.

His most cited work include:

  • Phylogenies and Community Ecology (2767 citations)
  • Picante: R tools for integrating phylogenies and ecology (2688 citations)
  • Phylocom: software for the analysis of phylogenetic community structure and trait evolution. (1342 citations)

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

Campbell O. Webb mainly investigates Ecology, Taxon, Biodiversity, Biological dispersal and Species richness. He connects Ecology with Phylogenetic niche conservatism in his research. His Taxon study combines topics in areas such as Taxonomy, Community and Genus.

His Biodiversity study which covers Spatial distribution that intersects with Spatial variability. His Biological dispersal research includes themes of Spatial analysis, Woody plant, Extinction and Biogeography. His Species richness research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Goodness of fit, Global biodiversity, Habitat and Simulation modeling.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (74.55%)
  • Taxon (16.36%)
  • Biodiversity (18.18%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2019)?

  • Ecology (74.55%)
  • RDF (5.45%)
  • Sampling (7.27%)

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

His primary areas of study are Ecology, RDF, Sampling, High potential and Diversity. His Ecology research spans across into fields like Wright and Tree. His RDF study focuses on Information retrieval and World Wide Web.

In general Information retrieval study, his work on SPARQL often relates to the realm of Markup language and Class, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His Sampling study combines topics in areas such as Forest management, Ecosystem and Environmental resource management. The various areas that Campbell O. Webb examines in his Biodiversity study include Sustainability and Ecosystem services.

Between 2013 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • An estimate of the number of tropical tree species (230 citations)
  • Phylogenetic classification of the world's tropical forests (86 citations)
  • Globally, functional traits are weak predictors of juvenile tree growth, and we do not know why (86 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Genus

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Genealogy, Messier object, Functional ecology and Juvenile. His work on Floristics as part of general Ecology study is frequently linked to Phylogeography, bridging the gap between disciplines. Campbell O. Webb has included themes like Environmental change and Tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests in his Floristics study.

Other disciplines of study, such as Rainforest, Pantropical, Species diversity, Species richness and Tropical climate, are mixed together with his Phylogeography studies. Campbell O. Webb combines topics linked to Biodiversity with his work on Rainforest. His work in Genealogy incorporates the disciplines of Tree and Wright.
