Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • IUCN Red List

Ecology, Lizard, Zoology, Evolutionary biology and Sauria are his primary areas of study. His studies in Ecology integrate themes in fields like Survivorship curve and Extinction. His Lizard research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Global warming, Ecological niche, Ecosystem and Ectotherm.

His work on Sexual selection as part of general Zoology study is frequently linked to Social status, bridging the gap between disciplines. The various areas that he examines in his Evolutionary biology study include Evolutionary physiology, Life history theory and Body size. His Sauria research includes elements of Taxon and Adaptation.

His most cited work include:

  • Erosion of lizard diversity by climate change and altered thermal niches. (1088 citations)
  • Erosion of lizard diversity by climate change and altered thermal niches. (1088 citations)
  • Testosterone, Endurance, and Darwinian Fitness: Natural and Sexual Selection on the Physiological Bases of Alternative Male Behaviors in Side-Blotched Lizards (299 citations)

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

His main research concerns Ecology, Lizard, Zoology, Ectotherm and Habitat. Ecology is a component of his Climate change, Ecological niche, Global warming, Predation and Urosaurus ornatus studies. His Climate change study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Species distribution, Extinction and Salamander.

He has researched Global warming in several fields, including Taxon and Liolaemus. The study incorporates disciplines such as Thermoregulation, Ecosystem, Evolutionary biology and Reproductive success in addition to Lizard. His studies examine the connections between Zoology and genetics, as well as such issues in Body size, with regards to Anolis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (80.41%)
  • Lizard (45.36%)
  • Zoology (21.65%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Ecology (80.41%)
  • Lizard (45.36%)
  • Ectotherm (27.84%)

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

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Lizard, Ectotherm, Thermoregulation and Climate change. His research on Ecology frequently links to adjacent areas such as Extinction. His work carried out in the field of Lizard brings together such families of science as Evolutionary biology, Darwinian Fitness and Reproductive success.

His Ectotherm research integrates issues from Biodiversity, Natural selection and Endurance capacity. His research in Climate change focuses on subjects like Species distribution, which are connected to Temperate climate. His Zoology study incorporates themes from Ecosystem and Amazonian.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Natural selection on thermal preference, critical thermal maxima and locomotor performance. (40 citations)
  • Environmental temperatures shape thermal physiology as well as diversification and genome-wide substitution rates in lizards (32 citations)
  • Shorter telomeres precede population extinction in wild lizards. (31 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Extinction

Donald B. Miles mainly focuses on Ectotherm, Extinction, Climate change, Ecology and Lizard. His study in Ectotherm is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Biodiversity, Natural selection and Heritability. Donald B. Miles has included themes like Range, Abundance and Acclimatization in his Extinction study.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Climate change, Species distribution are connected with Temperate climate and other disciplines. His study in the fields of Global warming, Ecological niche and Taxon under the domain of Ecology overlaps with other disciplines such as Phrynocephalus. In his research, Physiology, Corticosterone and Chronic stress is intimately related to Population decline, which falls under the overarching field of Lizard.
