Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Predation
  • Biodiversity

His main research concerns Ecology, Fishery, Foraging, Seabird and Predation. His study in the field of Pelagic zone is also linked to topics like Impact studies. His studies in Foraging integrate themes in fields like Reproductive success, Plumage and Morus capensis.

His Seabird research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Aptenodytes patagonicus and Extinction. The Predator research he does as part of his general Predation study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Physical form, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His Apex predator research includes elements of Marine ecosystem and Upwelling.

His most cited work include:

  • Offshore diplomacy, or how seabirds mitigate intra-specific competition: a case study based on GPS tracking of Cape gannets from neighbouring colonies (228 citations)
  • Spatial match–mismatch in the Benguela upwelling zone: should we expect chlorophyll and sea-surface temperature to predict marine predator distributions? (184 citations)
  • Spatial match–mismatch in the Benguela upwelling zone: should we expect chlorophyll and sea-surface temperature to predict marine predator distributions? (184 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Foraging, Seabird, Fishery and Predation. Arctic, Habitat, Apex predator, Cormorant and Range are the primary areas of interest in his Ecology study. His research investigates the connection between Foraging and topics such as Morus capensis that intersect with problems in Cape.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Marine protected area, Marine conservation and Oceanography, Zooplankton in addition to Seabird. The concepts of his Fishery study are interwoven with issues in Marine ecosystem and Upwelling. The various areas that David Grémillet examines in his Predation study include Nest and Underwater.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (101.27%)
  • Foraging (60.83%)
  • Seabird (62.74%)

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

  • Seabird (62.74%)
  • Ecology (101.27%)
  • Arctic (26.11%)

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

Seabird, Ecology, Arctic, Foraging and Fishery are his primary areas of study. His Seabird research integrates issues from Marine ecosystem, Global warming, Marine conservation, Threatened species and Oceanography. His Habitat, Seasonality and Trophic level study in the realm of Ecology connects with subjects such as Specialization and Flexibility.

His Arctic study also includes fields such as

  • Effects of global warming on oceans and Pollution most often made with reference to Ecotoxicology,
  • Climate change that connect with fields like Subarctic climate. His Foraging research incorporates themes from Range and Predation. Many of his research projects under Fishery are closely connected to Identification with Identification, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Large birds travel farther in homogeneous environments (15 citations)
  • Large birds travel farther in homogeneous environments (15 citations)
  • A framework for mapping the distribution of seabirds by integrating tracking, demography and phenology (13 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Predation
  • Biodiversity

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Seabird, Bycatch, Fishery and Arctic. His Ecology study frequently links to related topics such as Philopatry. His Seabird research is classified as research in Predation.

His Fishery study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Ecology and Mediterranean sea. His Arctic research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Climate change, Ecological Parameter Monitoring and Subarctic climate. His Foraging study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Spatial analysis and Effects of global warming on oceans.
