Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Biodiversity

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Introduced species, Unionidae, Bivalvia and Habitat. Biodiversity, Ecosystem, Range, Taxonomic rank and Ecology are among the areas of Ecology where David C. Aldridge concentrates his study. His Introduced species study incorporates themes from Species distribution and Invasive species.

His Unionidae research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Species richness, Reproduction, Freshwater ecosystem and Morphology. His Bivalvia research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Rhodeus ocellatus and Fishery, Zebra mussel, Mussel. His study in Habitat is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Microplastics, Aquatic ecosystem and Identification.

His most cited work include:

  • Microplastics in freshwater systems: A review of the emerging threats, identification of knowledge gaps and prioritisation of research needs (861 citations)
  • Non-indigenous invasive bivalves as ecosystem engineers (265 citations)
  • Conservation status of freshwater mussels in Europe: state of the art and future challenges. (230 citations)

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

David C. Aldridge spends much of his time researching Ecology, Introduced species, Invasive species, Mussel and Bivalvia. Habitat, Biodiversity, Ecosystem, Dreissena and Zebra mussel are the subjects of his Ecology studies. David C. Aldridge has researched Habitat in several fields, including Species richness and Quagga mussel.

His Introduced species study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Biological dispersal, Dikerogammarus villosus, Species distribution and Environmental resource management. He has included themes like Mollusca and Unio pictorum in his Mussel study. David C. Aldridge is involved in the study of Bivalvia that focuses on Unionidae in particular.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (54.36%)
  • Introduced species (22.82%)
  • Invasive species (20.13%)

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

  • Ecology (54.36%)
  • Biodiversity (13.42%)
  • Aquaculture (6.71%)

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

Ecology, Biodiversity, Aquaculture, Zoology and Shellfish are his primary areas of study. Abundance, Ecosystem, Ecosystem engineer, Freshwater ecosystem and IUCN Red List are the primary areas of interest in his Ecology study. His Ecosystem engineer research focuses on Compensatory growth and how it relates to Habitat.

The Biodiversity study combines topics in areas such as Extinction, Ecosystem services, Environmental planning and Environmental change, Climate change. David C. Aldridge focuses mostly in the field of Environmental change, narrowing it down to matters related to Marine ecosystem and, in some cases, Introduced species. His research in the fields of Bivalvia overlaps with other disciplines such as Action.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Developing a list of invasive alien species likely to threaten biodiversity and ecosystems in the European Union (44 citations)
  • Antarctica: The final frontier for marine biological invasions. (27 citations)
  • Long-term population dynamics of dreissenid mussels (Dreissena polymorpha and D. rostriformis): a cross-system analysis (15 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Biodiversity

His primary areas of study are Biodiversity, Ecology, Introduced species, Threatened species and Margaritiferidae. His work is dedicated to discovering how Biodiversity, Ecosystem are connected with Alien species and Taxonomic rank and other disciplines. While working on this project, he studies both Ecology and Viviparidae.

His research in Introduced species intersects with topics in Fishery, Fishing and Sympatric speciation. His Threatened species research includes elements of Zoology, Freshwater pearl mussel, Extinction, Genome and Margaritifera. His work focuses on many connections between Margaritiferidae and other disciplines, such as Mesozoic, that overlap with his field of interest in Monophyly.
