Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • IUCN Red List
  • Predation

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Foraging, Phalacrocorax atriceps, Fishery and Statistics. The study of Ecology is intertwined with the study of Evolutionary biology in a number of ways. His Foraging research includes elements of Energetics, Ecology, Energy landscape and Net energy gain.

His Phalacrocorax atriceps study combines topics in areas such as Zoology, Sexing and Phalacrocorax olivaceus. The study incorporates disciplines such as Predation, Predator, Seabird, Total mortality and Hake in addition to Fishery. His work deals with themes such as Energy maximization, Net energy, Diving bird and Terrestrial locomotion, which intersect with Statistics.

His most cited work include:

  • Moving towards acceleration for estimates of activity-specific metabolic rate in free-living animals: the case of the cormorant (438 citations)
  • The relationship between oxygen consumption and body acceleration in a range of species. (148 citations)
  • The relationship between oxygen consumption and body acceleration in a range of species. (148 citations)

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

Flavio Quintana mainly focuses on Ecology, Foraging, Fishery, Phalacrocorax atriceps and Zoology. All of his Ecology and Predation, Seabird, Cormorant, Seasonal breeder and Phalacrocorax magellanicus investigations are sub-components of the entire Ecology study. Flavio Quintana has researched Foraging in several fields, including Range, Southern giant petrel, Shelf break, Habitat and Spheniscus magellanicus.

His Fishery research includes themes of Inlet, Wetland and Threatened species. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Statistics and Diving bird. His work in the fields of Sexual dimorphism, Leucocarbo atriceps and Intraspecific competition overlaps with other areas such as Phylogeography.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (100.57%)
  • Foraging (59.43%)
  • Fishery (38.29%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Ecology (100.57%)
  • Seabird (25.71%)
  • Fishery (38.29%)

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

Flavio Quintana focuses on Ecology, Seabird, Fishery, Zoology and Foraging. Flavio Quintana combines Ecology and Heat losses in his studies. The Seabird study combines topics in areas such as Obligate and Brood.

His studies in Fishery integrate themes in fields like IUCN Red List, Threatened species and Introduced species. His research investigates the connection between Foraging and topics such as Spheniscus magellanicus that intersect with problems in Prey capture and Scale. His Seasonal breeder study incorporates themes from Range and Abundance.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The conservation status and priorities for albatrosses and large petrels (86 citations)
  • Identification of animal movement patterns using tri-axial magnetometry (50 citations)
  • Estimates for energy expenditure in free-living animals using acceleration proxies: A reappraisal (40 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • IUCN Red List
  • Predation

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Predation, Artificial intelligence, Trophic level and Animal ecology. His work is connected to Endangered species and Thalassarche carteri, as a part of Ecology. In the subject of general Predation, his work in Apex predator is often linked to Primary producers, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

When carried out as part of a general Artificial intelligence research project, his work on Decision tree is frequently linked to work in Time based, Software and Magnetometer, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His work carried out in the field of Trophic level brings together such families of science as Ecology, Ecological niche, Predator, Jellyfish and Pelagic zone. His Animal ecology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Data point and Plot.
