What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Zoology
- Endocrinology
His primary areas of study are Ecology, Endocrinology, Corticosterone, Reproduction and Zoology.
All of his Ecology and Seabird, Foraging, Pelagic zone, Seasonal breeder and Avian clutch size investigations are sub-components of the entire Ecology study.
Olivier Chastel works mostly in the field of Endocrinology, limiting it down to topics relating to Immunocompetence and, in certain cases, Thermoregulation, Humoral immunity and Sexual selection, as a part of the same area of interest.
The concepts of his Corticosterone study are interwoven with issues in Sex characteristics, Senescence, Nest and Glucocorticoid.
His work deals with themes such as Paternal care, Incubation, Brood, Reproductive success and Reproductive value, which intersect with Reproduction.
His Zoology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Offspring, Immune system and Luteinizing hormone.
His most cited work include:
- Assessing the Cost of Mounting an Immune Response (448 citations)
- Testosterone and oxidative stress: the oxidation handicap hypothesis (264 citations)
- Stress Response and the Value of Reproduction: Are Birds Prudent Parents? (224 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Olivier Chastel focuses on Ecology, Zoology, Endocrinology, Corticosterone and Seabird.
His work carried out in the field of Zoology brings together such families of science as Hatching, Paternal care and Reproduction.
His research in Reproduction focuses on subjects like Reproductive success, which are connected to Fledge and Animal ecology.
The Endocrinology study combines topics in areas such as Offspring and Incubation.
His biological study deals with issues like Sterna, which deal with fields such as Tern.
Olivier Chastel has researched Seabird in several fields, including Trophic level, Pesticide and Pollutant.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (39.39%)
- Zoology (36.80%)
- Endocrinology (31.60%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?
- Zoology (36.80%)
- Seabird (23.38%)
- Ecology (39.39%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Olivier Chastel mainly focuses on Zoology, Seabird, Ecology, Corticosterone and Reproduction.
His Zoology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Offspring, Paternal care and Frigatebird.
His Seabird research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Pesticide and Bioindicator.
His study in Corticosterone is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Parental investment, Prolactin, Haptoglobin and Fight-or-flight response.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Oxidative stress, Animal ecology, Animal science and Reproductive success.
His research on Reproductive success also deals with topics like
- Testosterone and related Fecundity,
- Androgen together with Longevity.
Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Do glucocorticoids mediate the link between environmental conditions and telomere dynamics in wild vertebrates? A review (65 citations)
- Does prolactin mediate parental and life-history decisions in response to environmental conditions in birds? A review. (42 citations)
- Black-legged kittiwakes as messengers of Atlantification in the Arctic (39 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
His main research concerns Seabird, Ecology, Telomere, Foraging and Trophic level.
His Seabird study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Zoology, Pesticide, Hexachlorobenzene, Pollutant and Marine ecosystem.
His study in Range and Arctic falls within the category of Ecology.
His Foraging study which covers Seasonal breeder that intersects with Predator and Boldness.
His study looks at the relationship between Hatching and topics such as Secretion, which overlap with Corticosterone.
His Life history research incorporates themes from Prolactin and Paternal care.
