Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Extinction

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Biodiversity, Extinction, Clade and Evolutionary biology. His study in the field of Mammal also crosses realms of Latent extinction risk. Marcel Cardillo interconnects Extinction event and Body size in the investigation of issues within Mammal.

He works mostly in the field of Biodiversity, limiting it down to topics relating to Biogeography and, in certain cases, Environmental niche modelling, Evolutionary ecology, Genetic algorithm, Spatial ecology and Beta diversity. His research investigates the connection with Extinction and areas like Species richness which intersect with concerns in Primary production and Latitude. His work in Evolutionary biology addresses subjects such as Zoology, which are connected to disciplines such as Metatheria and Taxon.

His most cited work include:

  • The delayed rise of present-day mammals (1737 citations)
  • PanTHERIA: a species‐level database of life history, ecology, and geography of extant and recently extinct mammals (980 citations)
  • Multiple Causes of High Extinction Risk in Large Mammal Species (848 citations)

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

Ecology, Biodiversity, Extinction, Species richness and Evolutionary biology are his primary areas of study. His study in the field of Mammal and Range is also linked to topics like Diversification, Clade and Latent extinction risk. Marcel Cardillo usually deals with Biodiversity and limits it to topics linked to Biogeography and Ecology.

In his study, Zoology is strongly linked to Body size, which falls under the umbrella field of Extinction. His research investigates the connection between Species richness and topics such as Latitude that intersect with issues in Primary production. His research in the fields of Genetic algorithm overlaps with other disciplines such as Supertree.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (80.00%)
  • Biodiversity (41.18%)
  • Extinction (37.65%)

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

  • Ecology (80.00%)
  • Evolutionary biology (22.35%)
  • Biodiversity (41.18%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Evolutionary biology, Biodiversity, Threatened species and Niche. In the field of Ecology, his study on Biodiversity hotspot, Species richness and Proteaceae overlaps with subjects such as Variation and Context. His Species richness research includes elements of Mutualism, Community and Genetic diversity.

The concepts of his Biodiversity study are interwoven with issues in Range and Agroforestry. Marcel Cardillo combines subjects such as Extinction and Body size with his study of Threatened species. In his research on the topic of Niche, Species distribution is strongly related with Environmental niche modelling.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Larger plants promote a greater diversity of symbiotic nitrogen‐fixing soil bacteria associated with an Australian endemic legume (21 citations)
  • The ecological drivers of variation in global language diversity. (18 citations)
  • Reconstructing the Geography of Speciation from Contemporary Biodiversity Data (16 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Extinction

Marcel Cardillo spends much of his time researching Ecology, Biodiversity, Range, Niche and Geographic distribution. Ecology is closely attributed to Genetic diversity in his research. His work carried out in the field of Biodiversity brings together such families of science as Allopatric speciation, Genetic algorithm, Sympatric speciation, Approximate Bayesian computation and Biogeography.

His Evolutionary biology research extends to Range, which is thematically connected. Niche and Plant species are frequently intertwined in his study.
