What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
His primary areas of study are Ecology, Habitat, Trophic level, Species richness and Life history theory.
His Ecology study frequently involves adjacent topics like Biological dispersal.
The Habitat study combines topics in areas such as Ordination, Floodplain, Interspecific competition, Drainage basin and Species diversity.
His Trophic level research incorporates themes from Hierarchical clustering, Global biodiversity and Riparian zone.
His Species richness study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Abundance, Ecomorphology, Estuary, Deforestation and Introduced species.
His study in Life history theory is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Fecundity, Ecology, Density dependence, Fisheries management and Field.
His most cited work include:
- Patterns of Life-History Diversification in North American Fishes: implications for Population Regulation (1075 citations)
- Food webs: integration of patterns and dynamics (661 citations)
- Balancing hydropower and biodiversity in the Amazon, Congo, and Mekong (634 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Habitat, Trophic level, Floodplain and Food web.
His Ecology study is mostly concerned with Species richness, Biodiversity, Predation, Ecosystem and Abundance.
His Habitat study combines topics in areas such as Drainage basin, Amazon rainforest, Structural complexity, Biological dispersal and Community structure.
His work in Trophic level addresses issues such as Niche, which are connected to fields such as Convergent evolution.
The concepts of his Floodplain study are interwoven with issues in Littoral zone, Flood myth and Benthic zone.
His studies deal with areas such as Productivity and Food chain as well as Food web.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (72.58%)
- Habitat (23.08%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His main research concerns Ecology, Trophic level, Habitat, Biodiversity and Zoology.
His research investigates the connection between Ecology and topics such as Biological dispersal that intersect with issues in Wetland.
His studies in Trophic level integrate themes in fields like Biomass, Ecological niche, Ecosystem and Omnivore.
His Habitat research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Land cover, Deforestation, Structural complexity and Vegetation.
He interconnects Threatened species, Fishery, Tributary and Biogeography in the investigation of issues within Biodiversity.
His research integrates issues of Peacock bass, Cichlid, Cichla ocellaris, δ15N and Isotopic signature in his study of Zoology.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- First evidence of microplastic ingestion by fishes from the Amazon River estuary. (65 citations)
- First account of plastic pollution impacting freshwater fishes in the Amazon: Ingestion of plastic debris by piranhas and other serrasalmids with diverse feeding habits. (45 citations)
- Relationships between forest cover and fish diversity in the Amazon River floodplain (44 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
Kirk O. Winemiller mainly focuses on Ecology, Biodiversity, Habitat, Ecosystem and Trophic level.
His Ecology study incorporates themes from STREAMS and Spatial variability.
His work carried out in the field of Biodiversity brings together such families of science as Biological dispersal, Wetland and Relative species abundance.
His research in Habitat intersects with topics in Land cover, Deforestation, Hydroelectricity and Amazon rainforest.
His research investigates the connection with Ecosystem and areas like Riparian zone which intersect with concerns in Freshwater ecosystem.
As a part of the same scientific study, Kirk O. Winemiller usually deals with the Trophic level, concentrating on Omnivore and frequently concerns with Range and Food chain.
