Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Ecology, Predation, Ecosystem, Trophic level and Apex predator are his primary areas of study. Ecology is represented through his Climate change, Predator, Food chain, Foraging and Global warming research. His study looks at the relationship between Predation and fields such as Carrion, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

His Ecosystem research integrates issues from Natural selection, Ecological dynamics and Life history theory. His Apex predator study focuses on Mesopredator release hypothesis in particular. His Mesopredator release hypothesis research includes elements of Biodiversity, Conservation status, Species richness, Intraguild predation and Mesocarnivore.

His most cited work include:

  • Status and ecological effects of the world's largest carnivores. (1547 citations)
  • Human predators outpace other agents of trait change in the wild (416 citations)
  • LoCoH: Nonparameteric Kernel Methods for Constructing Home Ranges and Utilization Distributions (368 citations)

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

Christopher C. Wilmers focuses on Ecology, Predation, Ecosystem, Habitat and Apex predator. His is involved in several facets of Ecology study, as is seen by his studies on Predator, Trophic cascade, Climate change, Trophic level and Foraging. His research in Trophic level intersects with topics in Nestedness and Species richness.

Christopher C. Wilmers combines subjects such as Carrion and Energetics with his study of Predation. His Ecosystem study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Biomass and Biodiversity. His primary area of study in Apex predator is in the field of Mesopredator release hypothesis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (75.73%)
  • Predation (38.83%)
  • Ecosystem (22.33%)

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

  • Ecology (75.73%)
  • Habitat (21.36%)
  • Predation (38.83%)

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

Christopher C. Wilmers spends much of his time researching Ecology, Habitat, Predation, Carnivore and Wildlife. His research related to Apex predator, Biodiversity, Ecosystem, Trophic level and Species richness might be considered part of Ecology. His work in the fields of Mesopredator release hypothesis overlaps with other areas such as Methylmercury.

His Ecosystem study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Omnivore, Seed dispersal and Biogeography. Christopher C. Wilmers interconnects Vegetation, Land use, Selection and Mountain lion in the investigation of issues within Habitat. His work investigates the relationship between Predation and topics such as Ungulate that intersect with problems in Range.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Fear of humans as apex predators has landscape-scale impacts from mountain lions to mice. (53 citations)
  • Behavior-specific habitat selection by African lions may promote their persistence in a human-dominated landscape. (29 citations)
  • Scavenging in the Anthropocene: Human impact drives vertebrate scavenger species richness at a global scale. (26 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Wildlife, Habitat, Genetic diversity and Gene flow. His study in Trophic level, Biodiversity, Ecosystem and Diversity index is carried out as part of his studies in Ecology. Christopher C. Wilmers is interested in Apex predator, which is a field of Trophic level.

His Ecosystem research incorporates themes from Biomass, Nestedness, Productivity and Macroecology. His studies deal with areas such as Recreation ecology and Occupancy as well as Wildlife. His study ties his expertise on Predation together with the subject of Habitat.
