Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Ecosystem

Nathan J. Sanders mainly focuses on Ecology, Biodiversity, Ecosystem, Species richness and Climate change. Many of his studies on Ecology apply to Spatial variability as well. His Biodiversity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Taxon, Abiotic component, Tropics and Temperate climate.

The concepts of his Species richness study are interwoven with issues in Metabolic theory of ecology, Ordinary least squares and Genetic diversity. The Climate change study combines topics in areas such as Global biodiversity and Biota. His Plant community study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Productivity and Primary production.

His most cited work include:

  • Navigating the multiple meanings of β diversity: a roadmap for the practicing ecologist (1468 citations)
  • Plant genotypic diversity predicts community structure and governs an ecosystem process. (602 citations)
  • Disentangling the Drivers of β Diversity Along Latitudinal and Elevational Gradients (445 citations)

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

Nathan J. Sanders mostly deals with Ecology, Biodiversity, Ecosystem, Species richness and Abundance. His study in Ecology focuses on Climate change, Plant community, Community structure, Interspecific competition and Habitat. The various areas that Nathan J. Sanders examines in his Biodiversity study include Taxon, Ecology, Biological dispersal and Tropics.

His Ecosystem research includes themes of Biomass, Productivity, Herbivore, Nutrient and Seedling. His Species richness study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Introduced species, Species diversity and Invasive species. Nathan J. Sanders has included themes like Community and Predation in his Abundance study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (119.92%)
  • Biodiversity (44.07%)
  • Ecosystem (45.34%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Ecology (119.92%)
  • Ecosystem (45.34%)
  • Abundance (24.15%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Ecosystem, Abundance, Biodiversity and Climate change. Plant community, Range, Community structure, Habitat and Taxon are the core of his Ecology study. His Community structure research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Null model and Species richness.

His study in the fields of Helianthella quinquenervis under the domain of Ecosystem overlaps with other disciplines such as Dark septate endophyte. His work on Macroecology as part of general Biodiversity study is frequently connected to Variation, Interpretation and Natural science, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. The concepts of his Climate change study are interwoven with issues in Biological dispersal and Phenology.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Interaction rewiring and the rapid turnover of plant-pollinator networks (133 citations)
  • Interaction rewiring and the rapid turnover of plant-pollinator networks (133 citations)
  • Interaction rewiring and the rapid turnover of plant-pollinator networks (133 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Ecology, Biodiversity, Ecosystem, Plant community and Climate change are his primary areas of study. While working in this field, Nathan J. Sanders studies both Ecology and Feeding behavior. His study in the field of Macroecology also crosses realms of Relative abundance distribution.

His Plant community research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Tundra and Ecosystem ecology. As a part of the same scientific family, Nathan J. Sanders mostly works in the field of Abundance, focusing on Taxon and, on occasion, Biome. His Extinction research incorporates elements of Interspecific competition, Species richness, Species distribution, Trophic level and Biological dispersal.
