Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Habitat

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Habitat, Biological dispersal, Range and Invertebrate. As part of his studies on Ecology, David T. Bilton frequently links adjacent subjects like Allopatric speciation. His Biological dispersal study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Niche and Dytiscidae.

His Range research incorporates elements of River ecosystem, Enochrus, Lake ecosystem and Morphometrics. His Invertebrate research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Insect, Gigantism and Canonical correspondence analysis. The concepts of his Mediterranean climate study are interwoven with issues in Glacial period, Speciation, Colonization, Climatic warming and Endemism.

His most cited work include:

  • Dispersal in freshwater invertebrates (690 citations)
  • The Effect of Geographical Scale of Sampling on DNA Barcoding (284 citations)
  • Mediterranean Europe as an area of endemism for small mammals rather than a source for northwards postglacial colonization (271 citations)

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

David T. Bilton mainly investigates Ecology, Dytiscidae, Zoology, Range and Habitat. His Ecology study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Biological dispersal. He combines subjects such as Genus, Meladema and Biogeography with his study of Dytiscidae.

As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Zoology, focusing on Species complex and, on occasion, Systematics. His research integrates issues of Glacial period, Mediterranean climate and Agabus brunneus in his study of Range. His Biodiversity research integrates issues from Species richness and Endemism.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (81.65%)
  • Dytiscidae (21.52%)
  • Zoology (20.25%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2020)?

  • Ecology (81.65%)
  • Zoology (20.25%)
  • Genus (12.03%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Zoology, Genus, Range and Climate change. His research in Habitat, Endemism, Fauna, Western Palaearctic and Biodiversity are components of Ecology. His Endemism research includes themes of Glacial period, Quaternary and Pleistocene.

His Hygrobiidae and Hygrobia hermanni study, which is part of a larger body of work in Zoology, is frequently linked to Stridulation, Bioacoustics and Squeak, bridging the gap between disciplines. David T. Bilton has researched Genus in several fields, including Systematics and Species complex. The various areas that David T. Bilton examines in his Range study include Fecundity, Corixidae, Environmental change and Phenotypic plasticity.

Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Deeper knowledge of shallow waters: reviewing the invertebrate fauna of southern African temporary wetlands (18 citations)
  • Deeper knowledge of shallow waters: reviewing the invertebrate fauna of southern African temporary wetlands (18 citations)
  • Phylogenomics of the superfamily Dytiscoidea (Coleoptera: Adephaga) with an evaluation of phylogenetic conflict and systematic error (16 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • IUCN Red List

David T. Bilton spends much of his time researching Ecology, Evolutionary ecology, Ectotherm, Endemism and Evolutionary physiology. His work is connected to Wetland, Biodiversity, Salinity, Water beetle and Desiccation, as a part of Ecology. His Evolutionary ecology study combines topics in areas such as Sexual selection and Biogeography.

His Ectotherm research incorporates themes from Acclimatization, Trade-off and Respiration. His study in Endemism is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Conservation status, Habitat, IUCN Red List, Species richness and Fauna. His work carried out in the field of Evolutionary physiology brings together such families of science as Vertebrate, Tetrapod and Allometry.
