The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Paleontology, Ecology, Extinction event, Extinction and Biodiversity.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Genealogy, Biological evolution and Tree of life.
Ecology and Tetrapod are commonly linked in his work.
Michael J. Benton has included themes like Paleozoic and Permian, Early Triassic in his Extinction event study.
His work carried out in the field of Extinction brings together such families of science as Evolutionary radiation and Late Devonian extinction.
His Biodiversity research incorporates themes from Niche, Species richness, Macroevolution and Cretaceous Terrestrial Revolution.
His most cited work include:
- Paleontological Evidence to Date the Tree of Life (742 citations)
- The fossil record 2 (682 citations)
- Diversification and extinction in the history of life (503 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Paleontology, Extinction event, Ecology, Cretaceous and Permian.
As part of his studies on Paleontology, Michael J. Benton often connects relevant areas like Fauna.
His Extinction event research is within the category of Extinction.
His work on Ecology deals in particular with Biodiversity and Ecosystem.
Cretaceous is closely attributed to Zoology in his work.
He most often published in these fields:
- Paleontology (47.03%)
- Extinction event (14.76%)
- Ecology (13.89%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?
- Paleontology (47.03%)
- Extinction event (14.76%)
- Ecology (13.89%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Michael J. Benton mainly focuses on Paleontology, Extinction event, Ecology, Cretaceous and Permian.
The Paleontology study which covers Fauna that intersects with Carboniferous.
His Extinction event study results in a more complete grasp of Extinction.
Biodiversity, Ecosystem, Paleoecology and Species richness are among the areas of Ecology where Michael J. Benton concentrates his study.
His studies deal with areas such as Zoology and Feather as well as Cretaceous.
His Fossil Record research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Taxon and Outcrop.
Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Constraints on the timescale of animal evolutionary history (150 citations)
- Impacts of global warming on Permo-Triassic terrestrial ecosystems (141 citations)
- Complete biotic and sedimentary records of the Permian–Triassic transition from Meishan section, South China: Ecologically assessing mass extinction and its aftermath (103 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Paleontology
- Ecology
- Genus
Michael J. Benton spends much of his time researching Paleontology, Extinction event, Ecology, Permian and Fauna.
Cretaceous, Mesozoic, Siliciclastic, Fossil Record and Trace fossil are the subjects of his Paleontology studies.
His Extinction event study is concerned with the field of Extinction as a whole.
Michael J. Benton has included themes like Context and Devonian in his Ecology study.
Michael J. Benton works mostly in the field of Permian, limiting it down to topics relating to Global warming and, in certain cases, Earth science and Recovery phase, as a part of the same area of interest.
His Fauna study incorporates themes from Archipelago, Diphydontosaurus, Pachystropheus, Marine vertebrate and Carboniferous.
