Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Habitat

Ecology, Habitat, Biodiversity, Flora and Irish are his primary areas of study. His work in the fields of Ecology, such as Threatened species, Species richness and Range, intersects with other areas such as Royaume uni and Reino unido. The Biodiversity study combines topics in areas such as Environmental resource management, Extinction and Introduced species.

His Introduced species research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Invasive species, Temperate climate and Biogeography. The Flora study which covers Taxon that intersects with Floristics, Bronze Age, Brill and Abundance. His Extinction debt study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Population density, Invertebrate and Extinction event.

His most cited work include:

  • Comparative Losses of British Butterflies, Birds, and Plants and the Global Extinction Crisis (700 citations)
  • Declines in forage availability for bumblebees at a national scale (273 citations)
  • PLANTATT - attributes of British and Irish plants: status, size, life history, geography and habitats (189 citations)

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

Christopher D. Preston focuses on Ecology, Botany, Flora, Habitat and Potamogeton. Christopher D. Preston interconnects Zoology and Biological dispersal in the investigation of issues within Ecology. His study on Hybrid and Phytogeography is often connected to Internal transcribed spacer as part of broader study in Botany.

His work carried out in the field of Flora brings together such families of science as Bryophyte, Archaeology and Threatened species. His Habitat research includes elements of Arable land, Taxon, Species richness, Vascular plant and Grassland. In general Potamogeton, his work in Pectinatus is often linked to Genetic variability linking many areas of study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (52.90%)
  • Botany (20.00%)
  • Flora (16.77%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2020)?

  • Ecology (52.90%)
  • Flora (16.77%)
  • Botany (20.00%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Flora, Botany, Biodiversity and Habitat. His research brings together the fields of Biological dispersal and Ecology. His studies deal with areas such as Archaeology and Ancient history as well as Flora.

Christopher D. Preston studied Archaeology and Plant species that intersect with Taxon. A large part of his Habitat studies is devoted to Threatened species. His work deals with themes such as Invertebrate, Predation, Hedera helix and LOWER PLANTS, which intersect with Introduced species.

Between 2011 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Horizon scanning for invasive alien species with the potential to threaten biodiversity in Great Britain (144 citations)
  • The Biological Records Centre: a pioneer of citizen science (101 citations)
  • Assembly mechanisms determining high species turnover in aquatic communities over regional and continental scales (71 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Habitat

His main research concerns Ecology, Flora, Vascular plant, Range and Introduced species. His study in Ecology concentrates on Habitat, Biodiversity, Species distribution, Spatial ecology and Species richness. His Flora research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of IUCN Red List and Regional Red List, Near-threatened species, Threatened species.

His Range research incorporates themes from Environmental change and Predation. Christopher D. Preston has included themes like Environmental resource management and Invasive species in his Introduced species study. In the field of Botany, his study on Phytogeography and Alien species overlaps with subjects such as Publishing and Atlas.
