Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Carsten Schradin is best known for:

Predation
Gene
Mammal

His Social evolution study which covers Evolutionary biology that intersects with Sociality. Carsten Schradin frequently studies issues relating to Evolutionary biology and Sociality. His Ecology study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Nocturnal. His Zoology study frequently links to other fields, such as Animal ecology. Demography is frequently linked to Cooperative breeding in his study. Cooperative breeding is closely attributed to Demography in his research. His work on Philopatry expands to the thematically related Population. In most of his Philopatry studies, his work intersects topics such as Biological dispersal. He performs integrative Biological dispersal and Intraspecific competition research in his work.

His most cited work include:

INTRASPECIFIC VARIATION IN THE SPATIAL AND SOCIAL ORGANIZATION OF THE AFRICAN STRIPED MOUSE (180 citations)
Social flexibility and social evolution in mammals: a case study of the African striped mouse (Rhabdomys pumilio) (123 citations)
Intraspecific variation in social organization by genetic variation, developmental plasticity, social flexibility or entirely extrinsic factors (100 citations)

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

Carsten Schradin performs integrative study on Ecology and Evolutionary biology. Carsten Schradin integrates many fields, such as Evolutionary biology and Ecology, in his works. His research ties Seasonal breeder and Zoology together. His work on Seasonal breeder is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Zoology. His study on Demography is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Cooperative breeding. His Cooperative breeding study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Demography. As part of his studies on Population, he frequently links adjacent subjects like Reproductive success. Reproductive success connects with themes related to Population in his study. As part of his studies on Endocrinology, he often connects relevant subjects like Testosterone (patch).

Carsten Schradin most often published in these fields:

Ecology (79.57%)
Zoology (54.84%)
Demography (47.31%)

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

Ecology (100.00%)
Demography (75.00%)
Population (75.00%)

In recent works Carsten Schradin was focusing on the following fields of study:

His Zoology study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Animal ecology and Entomology. Carsten Schradin integrates several fields in his works, including Reproduction, Reproductive success, Semelparity and iteroparity and Sociality. His research combines Population and Semelparity and iteroparity. Population is frequently linked to Geographic variation in his study. Carsten Schradin combines Sociality and Reproduction in his research. Many of his studies on Ecology apply to Rodent as well. His research brings together the fields of Geographic variation and Demography. His work on Personality is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Boldness. His study ties his expertise on Personality together with the subject of Boldness.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

Elevated basal corticosterone levels increase disappearance risk of light but not heavy individuals in a long-term monitored rodent population (15 citations)
Social flexibility and environmental unpredictability in African striped mice (11 citations)
The fast and the curious II: performance, personality, and metabolism in Karoo bush rats (9 citations)
