Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Biodiversity

Ecology, Competition, Ecology, Plant community and Species richness are his primary areas of study. His work in the fields of Ecology, such as Alpine plant, Biomass, Introduced species and Biodiversity, intersects with other areas such as Diversity. Christopher J. Lortie usually deals with Alpine plant and limits it to topics linked to Cushion plant and Foundation species.

His Competition research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Environmental change, Climate change and Altitudinal zonation, Altitude. His Plant community study incorporates themes from Interdependence, Abiotic component and Mechanism. His Species richness research integrates issues from Abundance and Reproductive success.

His most cited work include:

  • Positive interactions among alpine plants increase with stress. (1369 citations)
  • Refining the stress-gradient hypothesis for competition and facilitation in plant communities (836 citations)
  • Do biotic interactions shape both sides of the humped-back model of species richness in plant communities? (478 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Plant community, Ecology, Shrub and Biodiversity. His Species richness, Competition, Introduced species, Foundation species and Invasive species investigations are all subjects of Ecology research. His Competition research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Alpine plant and Community.

His Plant community research incorporates themes from Interspecific competition, Biomass, Herbivore, Desert and Annual plant. The concepts of his Shrub study are interwoven with issues in Arid, Endangered species, Habitat and Understory. His work focuses on many connections between Biodiversity and other disciplines, such as Ecosystem, that overlap with his field of interest in Environmental resource management.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (61.97%)
  • Plant community (15.49%)
  • Ecology (12.21%)

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

  • Ecology (61.97%)
  • Shrub (15.02%)
  • Biodiversity (15.02%)

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

Christopher J. Lortie focuses on Ecology, Shrub, Biodiversity, Data science and Foundation species. His work in Ecology tackles topics such as Desert which are related to areas like Climate change. Christopher J. Lortie interconnects Abundance, Species richness, Annual plant, Community structure and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index in the investigation of issues within Shrub.

Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Ecosystem under Biodiversity, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Environmental resource management, Grazing, Agricultural land, Agriculture and Biodiversity hotspot. The Data science study combines topics in areas such as Simple, Evolutionary ecology and Contrast. His Competition study combines topics in areas such as Ecological network, Alpine plant, Community and Species diversity.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Evaluating the popularity of R in ecology (21 citations)
  • The dark side of facilitation: native shrubs facilitate exotic annuals more strongly than native annuals (15 citations)
  • Finding the bees knees: A conceptual framework and systematic review of the mechanisms of pollinator-mediated facilitation (13 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Biodiversity

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Evolutionary ecology, Data science, Lizard and Gambelia. His studies in Shrub, Invasive species, Arid, Plant community and Biodiversity are all subfields of Ecology research. His Plant community research incorporates elements of Growing season, Microsite, Foundation species, Desert climate and Annual plant.

The various areas that Christopher J. Lortie examines in his Biodiversity study include Alpine plant, Community, Competition and Species diversity. His work carried out in the field of Evolutionary ecology brings together such families of science as Complex ecosystem, Coding, Scientific evidence and Checklist. His Lizard study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Resource, Endangered species, Habitat, Selection and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index.
