Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Botany

David J. Patterson mainly focuses on Ecology, Taxon, Botany, Phylogenetic tree and Phylogenetics. His work on Dinema as part of general Ecology research is frequently linked to Position, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Taxon research includes themes of Clade, Protozoa, Species diversity and Marine snow.

His work on Flagellate and Labyrinthulomycetes as part of general Botany study is frequently connected to Cafeteria roenbergensis, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. In the field of Phylogenetic tree, his study on Synapomorphy and Sister group overlaps with subjects such as Protistology. His Phylogenetics course of study focuses on Evolutionary biology and Chromalveolata.

His most cited work include:

  • The Biology of free-living heterotrophic flagellates (294 citations)
  • THE DIVERSITY OF EUKARYOTES (288 citations)
  • Some flagellates (Protista) from tropical marine sediments (266 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Ultrastructure, Zoology, Botany and Flagellate. The various areas that David J. Patterson examines in his Ecology study include Massisteria, Goniomonas and Protozoa. David J. Patterson combines subjects such as Heliozoa, Flagellum, Microtubule and Cytoplasm with his study of Ultrastructure.

His studies deal with areas such as Euglenozoa and Protist as well as Zoology. The concepts of his Taxon study are interwoven with issues in Evolutionary biology and Phylogenetics, Clade, Phylogenetic tree. His work carried out in the field of Evolutionary biology brings together such families of science as Monophyly and Chromalveolata.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (23.65%)
  • Ultrastructure (18.24%)
  • Zoology (14.86%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2021)?

  • Ecology (23.65%)
  • Data science (5.41%)
  • Nomenclature (4.05%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Data science, Nomenclature, Taxonomy and World Wide Web. His Ecology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Phylogenetics, Clade and Holocene. His Phylogenetics study combines topics in areas such as Systematics and Phylogenetic tree.

His Data science research includes elements of Biodiversity, Informatics and Big data. His World Wide Web study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Information retrieval and State. David J. Patterson studied Taxonomy and Endemism that intersect with Zoology.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Data issues in the life sciences (83 citations)
  • Taxonomy based on science is necessary for global conservation. (80 citations)
  • Beyond the “Code”: A Guide to the Description and Documentation of Biodiversity in Ciliated Protists (Alveolata, Ciliophora) (52 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Botany

His main research concerns Ecology, Data science, Phylogenetics, Zoology and Metadata. His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Clade and Phylogenetic tree. In the subject of general Phylogenetics, his work in Euglenozoa is often linked to Epsilonproteobacteria, Symbiosis and Proteobacteria, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

The Zoology study combines topics in areas such as Mastigamoeba, Archamoebae and Pelomyxa. His Metadata research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Information retrieval, Interoperability and Catalogue of Life. His work deals with themes such as Best practice, Online database, Documentation and Knowledge base, which intersect with Biodiversity.
