Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • IUCN Red List

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Skink, Phylogeography, Lizard and Habitat. His Ecology study frequently involves adjacent topics like Biological dispersal. In the subject of general Skink, his work in Lampropholis delicata is often linked to Niveoscincus metallicus and Social organization, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

His Phylogeography study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Pleistocene, Range and Species complex. His work on Sauria as part of general Lizard research is frequently linked to Behavioral traits, bridging the gap between disciplines. David G. Chapple combines subjects such as Global warming, Climate change, Ecological niche, Ecosystem and Ectotherm with his study of Extinction.

His most cited work include:

  • Erosion of lizard diversity by climate change and altered thermal niches. (1088 citations)
  • The conservation status of the world's reptiles (490 citations)
  • Can behavioral and personality traits influence the success of unintentional species introductions (241 citations)

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

David G. Chapple mainly investigates Ecology, Skink, Zoology, Lizard and Lampropholis delicata. His Ecology research incorporates elements of Phylogeography and Biological dispersal. His studies deal with areas such as Autotomy, Population genetics, Species complex, Genetic admixture and Genetic structure as well as Skink.

His Zoology study also includes

  • Invasive species that connect with fields like Extinction,
  • Taxon that connect with fields like Biodiversity. The Sauria research David G. Chapple does as part of his general Lizard study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Geography, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His Lampropholis delicata research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Lampropholis, Ectotherm, Ecological niche and Introduced species.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (102.34%)
  • Skink (69.01%)
  • Zoology (42.69%)

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

  • Ecology (102.34%)
  • Lizard (35.67%)
  • Skink (69.01%)

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

David G. Chapple mainly focuses on Ecology, Lizard, Skink, Zoology and Evolutionary biology. David G. Chapple performs multidisciplinary studies into Ecology and Geography in his work. In general Lizard study, his work on Lampropholis delicata often relates to the realm of Context, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

His Skink research focuses on Habitat and how it relates to Gecko and Substrate. His work in the fields of Lampropholis overlaps with other areas such as Boldness. His research in Evolutionary biology intersects with topics in Phylogenetic comparative methods and Sexual dimorphism.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Behavioral syndromes vary among geographically distinct populations in a reptile (15 citations)
  • Geographic and taxonomic patterns of extinction risk in Australian squamates (12 citations)
  • The effect of network size and sampling completeness in depauperate networks (11 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • IUCN Red List

David G. Chapple spends much of his time researching Ecology, Lizard, Evolutionary biology, Range and Conservation status. Many of his studies on Ecology apply to Phylogenetic tree as well. David G. Chapple combines Lizard and Geography in his studies.

His Evolutionary biology research includes themes of Geographic variation and Local adaptation. In his research, Global biodiversity, Resource and Invasive species is intimately related to Extinction, which falls under the overarching field of Range. His Conservation status research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Extinct in the wild, IUCN Red List and Threatened species.
