Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • IUCN Red List
  • Natural selection

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Biological dispersal, Life history, Juvenile and Zoology. His Ecology research incorporates elements of Population growth and Litter. His Biological dispersal research includes elements of Inbreeding, Inbreeding depression and Competition.

His Life history study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Reproductive value, Contrast and Body size. His biological study deals with issues like Life history theory, which deal with fields such as Sexual maturity, Fertility, Density dependence, Population cycle and Survivorship curve. His Zoology study incorporates themes from Endangered species, Principal component analysis, Common species and Threatened species.

His most cited work include:

  • COMPETITION FOR MATES AND PREDOMINANT JUVENILE MALE DISPERSAL IN MAMMALS (721 citations)
  • Population genetics meets behavioral ecology. (285 citations)
  • Senescence rates are determined by ranking on the fast–slow life‐history continuum (258 citations)

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

His main research concerns Ecology, Zoology, Reproduction, Sexual selection and Reproductive success. His Ecology research incorporates themes from Philopatry, Biological dispersal and Litter. His research integrates issues of Inbreeding and Competition in his study of Biological dispersal.

His work on Mate choice, Feather and Mating is typically connected to Ornaments as part of general Zoology study, connecting several disciplines of science. His Mate choice research integrates issues from Aptenodytes patagonicus and Beak. F. Stephen Dobson has researched Reproduction in several fields, including Range and Trade-off.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (97.13%)
  • Zoology (50.00%)
  • Reproduction (24.71%)

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

  • Reproductive success (21.26%)
  • Zoology (50.00%)
  • Ecology (97.13%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Reproductive success, Zoology, Ecology, Litter and Hibernation. The various areas that he examines in his Reproductive success study include Test and Inclusive fitness. His Seasonal breeder study in the realm of Zoology connects with subjects such as Social status.

His study on Ecology is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Natural selection. His Litter research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Mating, Mating system and Reproduction. His Hibernation study combines topics in areas such as Adaptation, Mortality rate and Life history theory.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Adaptive responses of animals to climate change are most likely insufficient (96 citations)
  • Maternal oxidative stress and reproduction: Testing the constraint, cost and shielding hypotheses in a wild mammal (9 citations)
  • Multiple paternity and number of offspring in mammals (7 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • IUCN Red List
  • Natural selection

His primary scientific interests are in Zoology, Litter, Evolutionary biology, Reproductive success and Mating. His research in the fields of Feather and Beak overlaps with other disciplines such as Ornaments and Social mediation. His study in Litter is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Trade-off, Physiology and Reproduction.

His Evolutionary biology study deals with Extinction intersecting with Natural selection, Directional selection, Adaptation and Fitness landscape. His studies in Reproductive success integrate themes in fields like Mammal and Sperm competition. His work on Mating system as part of general Mating research is frequently linked to Empirical probability, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.
