Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Predation

Ecology, Fiddler crab, Mating, Mate choice and Uca mjoebergi are his primary areas of study. Ecology is often connected to Molecular evolution in his work. His Fiddler crab research focuses on Uca pugilator in particular.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Burrow and Courtship in addition to Mating. As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Burrow, focusing on Sexual selection and, on occasion, Ocypodidae, Quiscalus and Sympatry. His Mate choice research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Selection, Sensory system and Supernormal stimulus.

His most cited work include:

  • Mimicry, Mate Choice, and the Sensory Trap Hypothesis (208 citations)
  • ECOLOGY AND EVOLUTION OF MATING SYSTEMS OF FIDDLER CRABS (GENUS UCA) (204 citations)
  • Adaptive Significance of Reproductive Cycles in the Fiddler Crab Uca pugilator: A Hypothesis (171 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Fiddler crab, Predation, Mating and Zoology. Courtship, Burrow, Mate choice, Crustacean and Ocypodidae are subfields of Ecology in which his conducts study. The concepts of his Fiddler crab study are interwoven with issues in Sexual selection, Uca mjoebergi and Claw.

His work deals with themes such as Intraspecific competition, Fishery, Zooplankton and Larva, which intersect with Predation. His research in Mating intersects with topics in Breed and Reproductive cycle. While the research belongs to areas of Zoology, John H. Christy spends his time largely on the problem of Reproduction, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Reproductive success.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (65.00%)
  • Fiddler crab (42.50%)
  • Predation (37.50%)

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

  • Ecology (65.00%)
  • Predation (37.50%)
  • Zoology (30.00%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Predation, Zoology, Fiddler crab and Mating. John H. Christy integrates Ecology with Quaternary in his study. His research integrates issues of Intraspecific competition, Zooplankton, Larva, Plankton and Carapace in his study of Predation.

His Zoology study incorporates themes from Claw and Reproduction. His work carried out in the field of Fiddler crab brings together such families of science as Reproductive cycle, Courtship, Temperate climate, Animal ecology and Burrow. His Burrow research integrates issues from Sexual selection and Mate choice.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Specialized morphology corresponds to a generalist diet: linking form and function in smashing mantis shrimp crustaceans. (15 citations)
  • Choosing a mate in a high predation environment: Female preference in the fiddler crab Uca terpsichores. (11 citations)
  • Ontogenetic changes in diet and related morphological adaptations in Ocypode gaudichaudii (7 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Predation

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Predation, Mating, Fiddler crab and Claw. Ecology and Preference are two areas of study in which John H. Christy engages in interdisciplinary research. John H. Christy integrates many fields, such as Preference and engineering, in his works.

His Range research focuses on subjects like Abundance, which are linked to Crustacean. John H. Christy has researched Uca uruguayensis in several fields, including Reproductive cycle and Temperate climate. John H. Christy has included themes like Ghost crab, Ocypode gaudichaudii, Omnivore, Invertebrate and Foraging in his Carapace study.
