Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Genus
  • Paleontology
  • Ecology

His scientific interests lie mostly in Anatomy, Paleontology, Zoology, Taxon and Sauropterygia. His Anatomy research integrates issues from Gekkonidae, Pachyrhachis and Lizard. His Paleontology study frequently involves adjacent topics like Fauna.

His Zoology research incorporates elements of Gekkota, Parareptilia and Phylogenetic tree. Olivier Rieppel combines subjects such as Epistemology and Elasmobranchii with his study of Taxon. His work on Pistosaurus and Nothosaurus as part of general Sauropterygia study is frequently linked to Terrane and Augustasaurus, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His most cited work include:

  • Assembling the Squamate Tree of Life: Perspectives from the Phenotype and the Fossil Record (297 citations)
  • An ancestral turtle from the Late Triassic of southwestern China (248 citations)
  • Fundamentals of comparative biology (192 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Anatomy, Paleontology, Zoology, Skull and Taxon. His study connects Lizard and Anatomy. Olivier Rieppel interconnects Genus and China in the investigation of issues within Paleontology.

His Zoology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Clade and Phylogenetic tree. Within one scientific family, Olivier Rieppel focuses on topics pertaining to Phylogenetics under Phylogenetic tree, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Evolutionary biology. His work carried out in the field of Taxon brings together such families of science as Sister group and Fauna.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Anatomy (33.68%)
  • Paleontology (27.08%)
  • Zoology (19.44%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Paleontology (27.08%)
  • Anatomy (33.68%)
  • Marine reptile (4.51%)

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

Paleontology, Anatomy, Marine reptile, Sauropterygia and Evolutionary biology are his primary areas of study. The various areas that he examines in his Paleontology study include Diapsid and China. The Anatomy study combines topics in areas such as Taxon and Juvenile.

His Sauropterygia study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Monophyly. His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Phylogenetics, Synapomorphy, Classification methods, Portrait and Turtle. His Genus study which covers Cymatosaurus that intersects with Zoology.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A basal ichthyosauriform with a short snout from the Lower Triassic of China (60 citations)
  • Terrestrial Origin of Viviparity in Mesozoic Marine Reptiles Indicated by Early Triassic Embryonic Fossils (50 citations)
  • Pachypleurosaurs (Reptilia: Sauropterygia) from the Lower Muschelkalk, and a Review of the Pachypleurosauroidea (41 citations)

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

  • Genus
  • Paleontology
  • Ecology

Olivier Rieppel mainly focuses on Paleontology, Marine reptile, Ecology, Sauropterygia and Extinction. His research integrates issues of Monophyly and Diapsid in his study of Paleontology. His Marine reptile study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sister group and Hupehsuchus.

Olivier Rieppel has researched Ecology in several fields, including Zoology and Cymatosaurus. His Sauropterygia study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Anatomy. His work is dedicated to discovering how Anatomy, Taxon are connected with Ichthyopterygia and Maxilla and other disciplines.
