Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • IUCN Red List
  • Genus

Leo Joseph focuses on Ecology, Phylogeography, Evolutionary biology, Biogeography and Vicariance. His work on Rainforest, Passerine and Global warming as part of his general Ecology study is frequently connected to Biome and Pleistocene, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Phylogeography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biodiversity, Allopatric speciation and Mitochondrial DNA.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Genetic Speciation, Population genetics, Ring species, Species complex and Reproductive isolation in addition to Evolutionary biology. His Biogeography research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Endemism and Coalescent theory. His Vicariance study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Range and Biological dispersal.

His most cited work include:

  • Declining body size: a third universal response to warming? (560 citations)
  • Genome 10K: A Proposal to Obtain Whole-Genome Sequence for 10 000 Vertebrate Species (471 citations)
  • Birth of a biome: insights into the assembly and maintenance of the Australian arid zone biota. (466 citations)

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

Leo Joseph mainly focuses on Ecology, Evolutionary biology, Zoology, Phylogeography and Subspecies. His Conservation biology, Biogeography, Ornithology, Range and Rainforest study are his primary interests in Ecology. His Biogeography study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Biological dispersal, Lineage and Endemism.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Allopatric speciation, Gene flow, Genetic diversity, Phylogenetic tree and Mitochondrial DNA. His Zoology research incorporates themes from Paraphyly, Monophyly and Taxon. He specializes in Phylogeography, namely Vicariance.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (52.15%)
  • Evolutionary biology (33.74%)
  • Zoology (28.83%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Evolutionary biology (33.74%)
  • Ecology (52.15%)
  • Phylogeography (21.47%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Evolutionary biology, Ecology, Phylogeography, Range and Subspecies. His Evolutionary biology research includes elements of Phylogenetic tree, Gene flow, Mitochondrial DNA and Introgression. His is doing research in Biogeography, Rainforest, Habitat, Body size and Mangrove, both of which are found in Ecology.

Coalescent theory, Passerine and Petroica is closely connected to Biological dispersal in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Biogeography. He has researched Phylogeography in several fields, including Kookaburra, Genetic variation, Dacelo leachii and Environmental niche modelling. He works mostly in the field of Range, limiting it down to topics relating to Zoology and, in certain cases, Pezoporus, as a part of the same area of interest.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Earth history and the passerine superradiation (77 citations)
  • Impacts of recent climate change on terrestrial flora and fauna: Some emerging Australian examples (35 citations)
  • Current geography masks dynamic history of gene flow during speciation in northern Australian birds (20 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • IUCN Red List
  • Genus

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Evolutionary biology, Range, Phylogeography, Ecology and Zoology. His work carried out in the field of Evolutionary biology brings together such families of science as Gene flow, Genetic diversity, Ficedula albicollis, Genomics and Malurus. The various areas that he examines in his Range study include Rainforest, Allopatric speciation and Habitat.

His Phylogeography study incorporates themes from Riparian zone, Mitochondrial DNA, New Guinean, Woodland and Mangrove. Climate change, Mean radiant temperature, Temperate climate, Sparrow and Body size are the core of his Ecology study. Leo Joseph interconnects Pezoporus and Species complex in the investigation of issues within Zoology.
