Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Habitat

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Zoology, Calidris, Natural selection and Reproductive success. His Ecology study is mostly concerned with Seasonal breeder, Predation, Nest, Fledge and Charadriidae. His work in Nest addresses issues such as Foraging, which are connected to fields such as Vanellus.

His Zoology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Corvus moneduloides, Woodpecker and Darwin's finches. The Calidris study combines topics in areas such as Longevity, Sexual selection, Riparia and Sexual dimorphism. His Reproductive success research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Genetic similarity, Mate choice and Ageing.

His most cited work include:

  • Nest site selection : a trade-off between concealment and view of the surroundings ? (217 citations)
  • Genetic similarity between mates and extra-pair parentage in three species of shorebirds (198 citations)
  • Do woodpecker finches acquire tool-use by social learning? (135 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Zoology, Nest, Mating system and Paternal care. His study involves Seasonal breeder, Reproduction, Vanellus, Predation and Lapwing, a branch of Ecology. In the field of Zoology, his study on Charadrius and Brood overlaps with subjects such as Brood parasite and Clutch.

In Nest, Donald Blomqvist works on issues like Habitat, which are connected to Foraging and Anatomy. His study in Mating system is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Calidris, Biological dispersal, Human fertilization and Reproductive success. His studies in Paternal care integrate themes in fields like National park, Three-toed woodpecker, Operational sex ratio and Social psychology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (61.29%)
  • Zoology (48.39%)
  • Nest (17.74%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Zoology (48.39%)
  • Wader (9.68%)
  • Ecology (61.29%)

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

Donald Blomqvist mostly deals with Zoology, Wader, Ecology, Mate choice and Evolutionary biology. His Zoology study combines topics in areas such as Sperm, Sperm motility and Range. He combines subjects such as Avian clutch size, Intraspecific competition and Courtship with his study of Wader.

As part of his studies on Ecology, Donald Blomqvist often connects relevant areas like Philopatry. Donald Blomqvist interconnects Sexual selection, Vanellus, Reproductive isolation, Species richness and Polygyny in the investigation of issues within Mate choice. His Evolutionary biology research incorporates themes from Big Five personality traits, Personality, Developmental psychology, Longevity and Songbird.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Rapid growth accelerates telomere attrition in a transgenic fish. (30 citations)
  • Telomere dynamics in wild brown trout: effects of compensatory growth and early growth investment (28 citations)
  • Polygamy slows down population divergence in shorebirds (22 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Habitat

Donald Blomqvist mainly investigates Juvenile, Brown trout, Evolutionary biology, Senescence and Genetics. Donald Blomqvist has researched Juvenile in several fields, including Developmental psychology, Period and Big Five personality traits, Personality. Growth rate, Ecology, Natural population growth, Zoology and Longevity are fields of study that intersect with his Brown trout study.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Mate choice, Reproductive isolation, Species richness, Mating system and Biological dispersal in addition to Evolutionary biology. His research in the fields of Ageing and Regeneration overlaps with other disciplines such as AquAdvantage salmon, Attrition and Somatic cell. Donald Blomqvist performs multidisciplinary study in the fields of Ageing and Transgene via his papers.
