Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Agriculture

Her primary areas of investigation include Biodiversity, Ecology, Agriculture, Species richness and Agroforestry. Ivette Perfecto combines subjects such as Canopy, Understory and Tropics with her study of Biodiversity. Ecology is represented through her Agroecosystem, Ecosystem, Species diversity, Habitat and Monoculture research.

Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Natural resource economics and Environmental resource management. Her studies deal with areas such as Abundance, Habitat destruction, Taxon, Intercropping and Sustainable agriculture as well as Species richness. Her work on Shade tree as part of general Agroforestry research is often related to Vulnerability, thus linking different fields of science.

Her most cited work include:

  • Global food security, biodiversity conservation and the future of agricultural intensification (1043 citations)
  • Shade Coffee: A Disappearing Refuge for Biodiversity Shade coffee plantations can contain as much biodiversity as forest habitats (769 citations)
  • Organic agriculture and the global food supply (636 citations)

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

Ivette Perfecto spends much of her time researching Ecology, Biodiversity, Agriculture, Agroforestry and Agroecosystem. Her is involved in several facets of Ecology study, as is seen by her studies on Predation, Habitat, Species richness, Ecosystem and Foraging. Her Biodiversity research focuses on subjects like Ecosystem services, which are linked to Environmental resource management and Spatial ecology.

Her research integrates issues of Biodiversity conservation, Natural resource economics and Agricultural economics in her study of Agriculture. Her work on Shade tree as part of general Agroforestry study is frequently linked to Business, bridging the gap between disciplines. Her work in Agroecosystem tackles topics such as Herbivore which are related to areas like Trophic level.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (56.19%)
  • Biodiversity (26.67%)
  • Agriculture (20.48%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Ecology (56.19%)
  • Biodiversity (26.67%)
  • Agriculture (20.48%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Biodiversity, Agriculture, Agroforestry and Agroecology. Her Biodiversity study combines topics in areas such as Abundance, Coffea and Ecosystem. As part of the same scientific family, Ivette Perfecto usually focuses on Abundance, concentrating on Herbivore and intersecting with Natural enemies, Insectivore, Species richness, Agroecosystem and PEST analysis.

Her Agriculture research integrates issues from Climate change and Environmental resource management. The various areas that she examines in her Agroforestry study include Agrarian society, Peasant and Livelihood. Her Agroecology research incorporates themes from Social science, Anthropocene, Immigration and Economy.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • A social–ecological perspective on harmonizing food security and biodiversity conservation (47 citations)
  • Ant-mediated (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) biological control of the coffee berry borer: diversity, ecological complexity, and conservation biocontrol (23 citations)
  • Feeding Prometheus: An Interdisciplinary Approach for Solving the Global Food Crisis (23 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Biodiversity

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Biodiversity, Ecology, Agriculture, Agroforestry and Abundance. Ivette Perfecto interconnects Generalist and specialist species, Herbivore and Ecosystem in the investigation of issues within Biodiversity. When carried out as part of a general Ecology research project, her work on Biological pest control, ANT and Hymenoptera is frequently linked to work in Diversity, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

Many of her research projects under Agriculture are closely connected to Business with Business, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. Her Agroforestry research includes themes of Insectivore, Predation, Agroecology and Anolis. Her research in Abundance intersects with topics in Coffea, Species richness, Foraging and Sex ratio.
