Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Zoology
  • Genus

Christopher J. Barnard spends much of his time researching Ecology, Animal ecology, Testosterone, Foraging and Intraspecific competition. Christopher J. Barnard performs multidisciplinary studies into Ecology and Flight distance in his work. His Animal ecology study combines topics in areas such as Competition and Predator.

The Testosterone study combines topics in areas such as Male mice, Corticosterone and Aggression. His work deals with themes such as Feeding behavior and Food intake, which intersect with Foraging. His research in Intraspecific competition intersects with topics in Orthoptera and Sperm, Sperm competition.

His most cited work include:

  • Kleptoparasitism in birds (380 citations)
  • Flock feeding and time budgets in the house sparrow (Passer domesticus L.) (309 citations)
  • Parasitism and Host Behaviour (273 citations)

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

Christopher J. Barnard mainly focuses on Ecology, Zoology, Foraging, Developmental psychology and Aggression. His Ecology study is mostly concerned with Animal ecology, Predation, Flock, Ecology and Predator. His study focuses on the intersection of Zoology and fields such as Sperm with connections in the field of Fluctuating asymmetry and Gryllodes sigillatus.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Apidae, Sorex and Nectar. His Developmental psychology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Social relation, House mice, Inbreeding, Olfaction and Preference. The various areas that Christopher J. Barnard examines in his Aggression study include Testosterone, Internal medicine, Corticosterone and Endocrinology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (33.04%)
  • Zoology (26.79%)
  • Foraging (14.29%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2003-2012)?

  • Ecology (33.04%)
  • Corticosterone (14.29%)
  • Developmental psychology (14.29%)

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

Christopher J. Barnard mostly deals with Ecology, Corticosterone, Developmental psychology, Zoology and Immunology. Ecology is closely attributed to Helminths in his research. His Corticosterone research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Testosterone, Immunocompetence and Glucocorticoid.

His Developmental psychology research integrates issues from House mice, Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance, Social group, Olfaction and Preference. His Zoology research incorporates elements of Sperm, Fauna and Life history theory. His Foraging research includes elements of Apidae, Pollination, Predation and Nectar.

Between 2003 and 2012, his most popular works were:

  • Producers and Scroungers: Strategies of Exploitation and Parasitism (109 citations)
  • The effects of predation risk from crab spiders on bee foraging behavior (66 citations)
  • Social Status and Resistance to Disease in House Mice (Mus musculus): Status-related Modulation of Hormonal Responses in Relation to Immunity Costs in Different Social and Physical Environments (63 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Zoology
  • Genus

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Helminths, Abundance, Developmental psychology and Species richness. His Ecology research focuses on Apidae, Foraging, Parasitism, Nectar and Thomisidae. His studies in Foraging integrate themes in fields like Predation, Eucera, Pollination and Crab spiders.

His study on Acanthocephala is often connected to Wadi as part of broader study in Helminths. His research in Developmental psychology intersects with topics in Cognition and Mating. His Species richness study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Larva, Host, Common species and Myodes glareolus.
