Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • Genetics

Godfrey M. Hewitt mainly investigates Ecology, Phylogeography, Evolutionary biology, Genetics and Mitochondrial DNA. His study in Ecology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ice age, Glacial period and Biological dispersal. Godfrey M. Hewitt interconnects Paleoclimatology and Pleistocene in the investigation of issues within Ice age.

His Biological dispersal research includes elements of Genetic structure and Population genetics. His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Gene flow, Chorthippus parallelus, Hybrid zone and Speciation. Godfrey M. Hewitt has researched Chorthippus parallelus in several fields, including Taxon and Parapatric speciation.

His most cited work include:

  • The genetic legacy of the Quaternary ice ages (5223 citations)
  • Some genetic consequences of ice ages, and their role in divergence and speciation (3335 citations)
  • Genetic consequences of climatic oscillations in the Quaternary. (2469 citations)

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

Godfrey M. Hewitt spends much of his time researching Ecology, Genetics, Zoology, Grasshopper and Evolutionary biology. His studies in Ecology integrate themes in fields like Phylogeography, Biological dispersal and Genetic structure. The study incorporates disciplines such as Ice age, Biodiversity, Pleistocene, Endemism and Biogeography in addition to Phylogeography.

His work in the fields of Zoology, such as Genus and Mating system, overlaps with other areas such as Cichlid. His work deals with themes such as Podisma pedestris, Cline, B chromosome, Karyotype and Hybrid zone, which intersect with Grasshopper. His research in Evolutionary biology focuses on subjects like Phylogenetic tree, which are connected to Phylogenetics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (47.09%)
  • Genetics (32.04%)
  • Zoology (27.18%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2003-2017)?

  • Ecology (47.09%)
  • Phylogeography (14.08%)
  • Evolutionary biology (27.18%)

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

Godfrey M. Hewitt focuses on Ecology, Phylogeography, Evolutionary biology, Zoology and Range. The various areas that Godfrey M. Hewitt examines in his Ecology study include Glacial period, Allopatric speciation and Genetic diversity. His Phylogeography research includes elements of Pleistocene, Mitochondrial DNA and Biogeography.

His Evolutionary biology research incorporates elements of Genetics, Phylogenetic tree, Sympatry, Phylogenetics and Genetic structure. His Zoology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Wolbachia, Botany and Population biology. His Range study often links to related topics such as Ice age.

Between 2003 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Genetic consequences of climatic oscillations in the Quaternary. (2469 citations)
  • Hybridization and speciation (1223 citations)
  • Speciation, hybrid zones and phylogeography - or seeing genes in space and time. (845 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • DNA

Ecology, Phylogeography, Genetic diversity, Temperate climate and Biodiversity are his primary areas of study. His studies deal with areas such as Evolutionary biology and Clade as well as Ecology. His Phylogeography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Ice age, Glacial period and Biogeography.

His Ice age research incorporates themes from Range, Pleistocene and Hybrid zone. His study in Genetic diversity is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Zoology, Cline, Genetic marker, Genetic differentiation and Genetic variation. The concepts of his Biodiversity study are interwoven with issues in Sister group, Population genetics, Founder effect, Biological dispersal and Extinction event.
