Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Biodiversity

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Species richness, Null model, Null and Biodiversity. Much of his study explores Ecology relationship to Null hypothesis. Nicholas J. Gotelli interconnects Sampling, Abundance, Extrapolation and Species discovery curve in the investigation of issues within Species richness.

His biological study deals with issues like Body size and species richness, which deal with fields such as Rank abundance curve, Alpha diversity and Gamma diversity. His Null model research integrates issues from Nestedness, Statistical hypothesis testing, Assembly rules and Type I and type II errors. The study incorporates disciplines such as Natural, Climate change, Global change and Community, Ecosystem in addition to Biodiversity.

His most cited work include:

  • Quantifying biodiversity: procedures and pitfalls in the measurement and comparison of species richness (4648 citations)
  • NULL MODELS IN ECOLOGY (1316 citations)
  • Null model analysis of species co-occurrence patterns (1249 citations)

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

Nicholas J. Gotelli mostly deals with Ecology, Species richness, Abundance, Biodiversity and Ecosystem. Ecology is a component of his Habitat, Species diversity, Sarracenia purpurea, Null model and Climate change studies. His study in Species richness focuses on Rarefaction in particular.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Species evenness and Environmental change. In his study, Relative species abundance is inextricably linked to Sampling, which falls within the broad field of Biodiversity. His work focuses on many connections between Ecosystem and other disciplines, such as Pitcher plant, that overlap with his field of interest in Aquatic ecosystem and Hysteresis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (79.58%)
  • Species richness (26.25%)
  • Abundance (19.58%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Ecology (79.58%)
  • Biodiversity (18.33%)
  • Abundance (19.58%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Biodiversity, Abundance, Species richness and Ecosystem. Ecology is closely attributed to Extinction in his research. His Biodiversity research includes elements of Relative species abundance, Macroevolution and Extinction event.

His Abundance research includes themes of Genome size, Aphaenogaster and Genomics. He has researched Species richness in several fields, including Statistical inference, Metacommunity, Competition, Community composition and Species diversity. Nicholas J. Gotelli focuses mostly in the field of Rarefaction, narrowing it down to topics relating to Sampling and, in certain cases, Range.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Embracing scale‐dependence to achieve a deeper understanding of biodiversity and its change across communities (84 citations)
  • Disentangling biotic interactions, environmental filters, and dispersal limitation as drivers of species co‐occurrence (64 citations)
  • A balance of winners and losers in the Anthropocene. (60 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Habitat

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Species richness, Abundance, Biodiversity and Co-occurrence. His Ecology study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Extinction. In his work, Sampling, Empirical research and Relative abundance distribution is strongly intertwined with Spatial ecology, which is a subfield of Biodiversity.

His Co-occurrence research incorporates elements of Community composition, Metacommunity, Biological dispersal and Statistical inference. His Plant community research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Invasive species, Niche, Community and Native plant. His Community structure research incorporates themes from Pleistocene, Biotic component, Abiotic component, Climate change and Ecosystem.
