Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Zoology

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Biodiversity, Spirochaetaceae, Western gray squirrel and Ixodes pacificus. His work on Cynomys ludovicianus, Flea and Prairie dog is typically connected to Yersinia as part of general Ecology study, connecting several disciplines of science. The study incorporates disciplines such as Transmission, Agriculture, Prevalence and Infectious disease in addition to Biodiversity.

As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Transmission, focusing on Wildlife and, on occasion, Cartography and Niche. The concepts of his Infectious disease study are interwoven with issues in Ixodes, Emerging infectious disease, Abiotic component and Urbanization. Among his Spirochaetaceae studies, there is a synthesis of other scientific areas such as Tick, Tick infestation, Peromyscus, Veterinary medicine and Zoology.

His most cited work include:

  • A meta-analysis suggesting that the relationship between biodiversity and risk of zoonotic pathogen transmission is idiosyncratic (157 citations)
  • Biodiversity Loss Affects Global Disease Ecology (147 citations)
  • Lyme disease ecology in a changing world: Consensus, uncertainty and critical gaps for improving control (82 citations)

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

Ecology, Prairie dog, Cynomys ludovicianus, Ixodes pacificus and Flea are his primary areas of study. In the subject of general Ecology, his work in Wildlife, Biodiversity and Peromyscus is often linked to Context, thereby combining diverse domains of study. As part of the same scientific family, Daniel J. Salkeld usually focuses on Prairie dog, concentrating on Rodent and intersecting with Leucogaster.

He interconnects Zoology, Grasshopper, Outbreak, Veterinary medicine and Bubonic plague in the investigation of issues within Cynomys ludovicianus. His Bubonic plague study incorporates themes from Grasshopper mouse and Epizootic. His Flea study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Plague and Disease reservoir.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (59.62%)
  • Prairie dog (65.38%)
  • Cynomys ludovicianus (57.69%)

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

  • Lyme disease (15.38%)
  • Tick (30.77%)
  • Ixodes pacificus (36.54%)

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

His main research concerns Lyme disease, Tick, Ixodes pacificus, Virology and Anaplasma phagocytophilum. His studies deal with areas such as Abundance and Environmental health as well as Lyme disease. His Environmental health research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Animal ecology, Biodiversity and Wildlife.

His Tick study combines topics in areas such as Vector and Recreation. His work on Human granulocytic anaplasmosis as part of general Anaplasma phagocytophilum study is frequently linked to Ecology, Chaparral and Tick-borne disease, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. In his papers, Daniel J. Salkeld integrates diverse fields, such as Ecology, Borrelia miyamotoi and Borrelia.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Using citizen science to describe the prevalence and distribution of tick bite and exposure to tick-borne diseases in the United States. (29 citations)
  • Time of year and outdoor recreation affect human exposure to ticks in California, United States (10 citations)
  • Borrelia miyamotoi Infections in Small Mammals, California, USA. (7 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Conservation biology

Daniel J. Salkeld mainly investigates Tick-borne disease, Tick, Ixodes, Vector and Environmental health. Tick-borne disease connects with themes related to Peromyscus in his study. His work in the fields of Tick, such as Dermacentor variabilis and Dermacentor occidentalis, overlaps with other areas such as Human exposure and Ixodes pacificus.

His Ixodes study is related to the wider topic of Lyme disease.
