Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Predation
  • Insect

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Predation, Zoology, Foraging and Antlion. He conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Ecology and Aggression through his works. A large part of his Predation studies is devoted to Predator.

His study in Predator is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Directionality and Mode. Inon Scharf combines subjects such as photoperiodism, Larva and Habitat with his study of Foraging. In his research on the topic of Antlion, Competition is strongly related with Optimal foraging theory.

His most cited work include:

  • Factors Influencing Site Abandonment and Site Selection in a Sit-and-Wait Predator: A Review of Pit-Building Antlion Larvae (109 citations)
  • Foraging decisions and behavioural flexibility in trap-building predators: a review. (106 citations)
  • Reproductive Trade-Offs and Direct Costs for Males in Arthropods (76 citations)

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

Inon Scharf mainly investigates Ecology, Predation, Foraging, Antlion and Habitat. His Ecology study frequently links to related topics such as Zoology. Inon Scharf studied Predation and Abiotic component that intersect with Spatial ecology.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Prey capture, Cataglyphis niger, Environmental factor and Mode. His studies examine the connections between Antlion and genetics, as well as such issues in Mediterranean climate, with regards to Pupa. His Habitat research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Nest, Abundance, Sympatric speciation and Arthropod.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (97.62%)
  • Predation (65.48%)
  • Foraging (41.67%)

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

  • Ecology (97.62%)
  • Predation (65.48%)
  • Foraging (41.67%)

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

Inon Scharf mainly focuses on Ecology, Predation, Foraging, Habitat and Ecology. His research in Ecology is mostly focused on Range. His specific area of interest is Predation, where Inon Scharf studies Predator.

His Predator research incorporates themes from Abundance, Pathogen, Optimal foraging theory and Cave. His Foraging study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cataglyphis niger and Nest. He has included themes like Mediterranean climate and Selection in his Habitat study.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Social tipping points in animal societies in response to heat stress (17 citations)
  • Habitat complexity dampens selection on prey activity level (9 citations)
  • Consistent differences in foraging behavior in 2 sympatric harvester ant species may facilitate coexistence. (9 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Predation
  • Habitat

Inon Scharf spends much of his time researching Habitat, Predation, Ecology, Foraging and Social psychology. His work deals with themes such as Mediterranean climate, Fly larvae and Nest, which intersect with Habitat. His Predation study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Selection.

The Acclimatization, Urban ecology and Antlion research he does as part of his general Ecology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Thermal shock and Thermal, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His studies in Foraging integrate themes in fields like Range, Messor, Sympatric speciation and Ecological niche. His work on Personality and Personality psychology as part of general Social psychology research is frequently linked to Anelosimus studiosus, bridging the gap between disciplines.
