Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • IUCN Red List
  • Genus

Jon Fjeldså focuses on Ecology, Biodiversity, Species richness, Endemism and Diversification. His is involved in several facets of Ecology study, as is seen by his studies on Habitat, Range, Speciation, Climate change and Biogeography. The concepts of his Biodiversity study are interwoven with issues in Passerine, Ecology, Biological dispersal and Lineage.

Jon Fjeldså studied Species richness and Tropics that intersect with Land use and Glacial period. His Endemism research includes elements of Protected area, Species distribution and Threatened species. As a member of one scientific family, Jon Fjeldså mostly works in the field of Taxon, focusing on Passerida and, on occasion, Zoology.

His most cited work include:

  • Whole-genome analyses resolve early branches in the tree of life of modern birds (1174 citations)
  • An Update of Wallace’s Zoogeographic Regions of the World (654 citations)
  • Comparative genomics reveals insights into avian genome evolution and adaptation. (638 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Zoology, Biodiversity, Evolutionary biology and Species richness. His study explores the link between Ecology and topics such as Biological dispersal that cross with problems in Passerine and Archipelago. The various areas that he examines in his Zoology study include Taxon, Clade, Monophyly and Molecular phylogenetics.

His study in Biodiversity is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Agroforestry and Threatened species. Jon Fjeldså interconnects Adaptive radiation and Ovenbird in the investigation of issues within Evolutionary biology. His Species richness study incorporates themes from Species distribution and Species diversity.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (57.31%)
  • Zoology (25.69%)
  • Biodiversity (22.92%)

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

  • Ecology (57.31%)
  • Evolutionary biology (15.81%)
  • Passerine (10.67%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Evolutionary biology, Passerine, Biodiversity and Biological dispersal. His work on Species richness, Range, Endemism and Habitat is typically connected to Diversification as part of general Ecology study, connecting several disciplines of science. His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Genetic diversity, Molecular phylogenetics, Adaptive radiation, Taxonomy and Nucleotide diversity.

His work deals with themes such as Contrast and Clade, which intersect with Passerine. The Biodiversity study combines topics in areas such as Obligate, Niche, Ecology and Frugivore. Jon Fjeldså has researched Biological dispersal in several fields, including Taxon, Allopatric speciation and Biogeography.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Geological and climatic influences on mountain biodiversity (115 citations)
  • Humboldt’s enigma: What causes global patterns of mountain biodiversity? (109 citations)
  • Building mountain biodiversity: Geological and evolutionary processes (81 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • IUCN Red List
  • Genus

Jon Fjeldså mainly focuses on Ecology, Biodiversity, Biological dispersal, Evolutionary biology and Passerine. When carried out as part of a general Ecology research project, his work on Range, Habitat and Niche is frequently linked to work in Specialization and Diversity, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His Biodiversity research integrates issues from Ecology, Species richness and Speciation.

His Biological dispersal study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Taxon, Systematics, Allopatric speciation and Biogeography. His research integrates issues of Tree of life, Comparative genomics, Genomics, Selection and Human evolutionary genetics in his study of Evolutionary biology. His research investigates the connection between Passerine and topics such as Clade that intersect with issues in Taxonomy and Genetic Speciation.
