Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Genus
  • Ecology

Derek J. Siveter mainly focuses on Paleontology, Paleozoic, Crustacean, Appendage and Arthropod. His Paleontology research integrates issues from Biota and China. His research investigates the connection between Paleozoic and topics such as Invertebrate that intersect with issues in Sea spider, Carapace, Ostracod and Fossil Record.

His study of Myodocopa is a part of Crustacean. His research on Appendage also deals with topics like

  • Mandible, which have a strong connection to Anatomy,
  • Devonian which is related to area like Zoology. His studies deal with areas such as Sister group, Chelicerata and Cladistics as well as Arthropod.

His most cited work include:

  • The Cambrian Fossils of Chengjiang, China: The Flowering of Early Animal Life (288 citations)
  • An Ostracode Crustacean with Soft Parts from the Lower Silurian (103 citations)
  • An Ostracode Crustacean with Soft Parts from the Lower Silurian (103 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Paleontology, Lagerstätte, Paleozoic, Anatomy and Zoology. His research in Paleontology intersects with topics in Genus and Crustacean. His study looks at the intersection of Lagerstätte and topics like Arthropod with Devonian.

In Paleozoic, Derek J. Siveter works on issues like Fossil Record, which are connected to Morphological similarity and Zooid. His Anatomy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Acaenoplax and Crown group. The study incorporates disciplines such as Sister group, Sponge and Ecology in addition to Zoology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (90.00%)
  • Lagerstätte (60.00%)
  • Paleozoic (44.62%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Lagerstätte (60.00%)
  • Paleontology (90.00%)
  • Zoology (37.69%)

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

His primary areas of study are Lagerstätte, Paleontology, Zoology, Sponge and Body plan. Devonian and Range are the primary areas of interest in his Paleontology study. His is doing research in Myodocopa and Crustacean, both of which are found in Zoology.

Myodocopa is closely attributed to Appendage in his study. His Sponge research also works with subjects such as

  • Calcareous which connect with Paleozoic,
  • Type which connect with Sponge spicule, Cambrian explosion and China. His work deals with themes such as Evolutionary biology, Monophyly and Arthropod, which intersect with Sister group.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Variation in appendages in early Cambrian bradoriids reveals a wide range of body plans in stem-euarthropods. (8 citations)
  • Variation in appendages in early Cambrian bradoriids reveals a wide range of body plans in stem-euarthropods. (8 citations)
  • A well-preserved respiratory system in a Silurian ostracod. (6 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Genus
  • Ecology

His main research concerns Lagerstätte, Appendage, Zoology, Body plan and Invertebrate. His Lagerstätte study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Myodocopa. He combines subjects such as Evolutionary biology and Sister group with his study of Appendage.

Many of his research projects under Zoology are closely connected to Gill with Gill, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His Body plan research covers fields of interest such as Convergent evolution, Bradoriida, Monophyly, Arthropod and Mandibulata. He has included themes like Molecular clock and Welsh Basin, Paleontology, Diagenesis, Paleozoic in his Invertebrate study.
