Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Habitat

Colin J. Yates mostly deals with Ecology, Climate change, Biodiversity, Woodland and Biological dispersal. His study in Ecology focuses on Pollination, Pollen, Environmental niche modelling, Forest management and Biota. Environmental niche modelling is intertwined with Kullback–Leibler divergence, Covariate, Regression and Raster graphics in his study.

His studies deal with areas such as Range, Environmental resource management and Extinction as well as Climate change. His research integrates issues of Plant community, Vegetation, Mediterranean climate and Endemism in his study of Biodiversity. His Woodland research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Agroforestry and Grazing.

His most cited work include:

  • A statistical explanation of MaxEnt for ecologists (3162 citations)
  • Refugia: identifying and understanding safe havens for biodiversity under climate change (585 citations)
  • Seed supply for broadscale restoration: maximizing evolutionary potential (413 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Woodland, Biodiversity, Botany and Climate change. His study in Habitat, Vegetation, Fire regime, Species richness and Shrub is done as part of Ecology. His Woodland research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Agroforestry and Ecological succession.

Within one scientific family, Colin J. Yates focuses on topics pertaining to Environmental resource management under Biodiversity, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Biota. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Subspecies and Population size. His Climate change research integrates issues from Range, Biodiversity hotspot, Biological dispersal and Environmental niche modelling.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (78.76%)
  • Woodland (22.12%)
  • Biodiversity (22.12%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Ecology (78.76%)
  • Habitat (14.16%)
  • Woodland (22.12%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Habitat, Woodland, Species richness and Floristics. His study in Threatened species, Global biodiversity, Fire ecology, Biogeography and Endemism falls within the category of Ecology. In his research on the topic of Biogeography, Insular biogeography is strongly related with Environmental niche modelling.

Colin J. Yates interconnects Metapopulation and Genetic viability in the investigation of issues within Habitat. His work deals with themes such as Obligate and Ecological succession, Chronosequence, which intersect with Woodland. His Species richness study combines topics in areas such as Vegetation and Pollination.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Persistence and stochasticity are key determinants of genetic diversity in plants associated with banded iron formation inselbergs. (18 citations)
  • Using bioregional variation in fire history and fire response attributes as a basis for managing threatened flora in a fire-prone Mediterranean climate biodiversity hotspot (18 citations)
  • High species diversity and turnover in granite inselberg floras highlight the need for a conservation strategy protecting many outcrops (17 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Habitat

His main research concerns Ecology, Habitat, Species richness, Threatened species and Insular biogeography. Endemism, Woodland, Grazing, Beta diversity and Mediterranean climate are among the areas of Ecology where the researcher is concentrating his efforts. Colin J. Yates combines subjects such as Global biodiversity and Climate change with his study of Grazing.

His Mediterranean climate research incorporates elements of Range, Regeneration and Botany. His Threatened species research includes themes of Biodiversity hotspot and Fire regime. His studies in Insular biogeography integrate themes in fields like Effective population size, Genetic diversity, Environmental niche modelling and Population genetics.
