Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Virus

Ottar N. Bjørnstad mostly deals with Ecology, Biological dispersal, Outbreak, Abundance and Measles. Ottar N. Bjørnstad has included themes like Delayed density dependence and Time series in his Ecology study. His study in Biological dispersal is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Tent caterpillar, Mountain pine beetle, Population model, Covariance and Spatial ecology.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Orthomyxoviridae, Spatial distribution and Disease transmission in addition to Outbreak. His Measles research incorporates elements of Population structure and Metapopulation. His Population structure study incorporates themes from Economic geography and Annual variation.

His most cited work include:

  • Travelling waves and spatial hierarchies in measles epidemics (739 citations)
  • Travelling waves and spatial hierarchies in measles epidemics (739 citations)
  • An investigation of transmission control measures during the first 50 days of the COVID-19 epidemic in China. (712 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Outbreak, Immunology, Vaccination and Measles. His Ecology study combines topics in areas such as Density dependence and Biological dispersal. He integrates many fields in his works, including Outbreak and Gravity model of trade.

His Immunology study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Virology. The concepts of his Vaccination study are interwoven with issues in Transmission, Basic reproduction number, Pediatrics and Environmental health. His Measles research includes themes of Econometrics and Metapopulation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (44.35%)
  • Outbreak (20.16%)
  • Immunology (23.79%)

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

  • Outbreak (20.16%)
  • Ecology (44.35%)
  • Vaccination (20.97%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Outbreak, Ecology, Vaccination, Measles and Peste-des-petits-ruminants virus. His Outbreak research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cartography and Biological dispersal. As part of his studies on Ecology, Ottar N. Bjørnstad often connects relevant areas like Spatial analysis.

His Vaccination research is classified as research in Immunology. The various areas that Ottar N. Bjørnstad examines in his Measles study include Vaccination coverage, Resource, Econometrics and Economic geography. His Peste-des-petits-ruminants virus study also includes fields such as

  • Veterinary medicine, which have a strong connection to Force of infection,
  • Peste-des-Petits-Ruminants which connect with Herd, Livestock and Grazing.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • An investigation of transmission control measures during the first 50 days of the COVID-19 epidemic in China. (712 citations)
  • Urbanization and humidity shape the intensity of influenza epidemics in U.S. cities (123 citations)
  • Climate-driven variation in mosquito density predicts the spatiotemporal dynamics of dengue (50 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Virus

Ottar N. Bjørnstad mainly investigates Outbreak, Transmission, Vaccination, Pandemic and Coronavirus disease 2019. His study looks at the intersection of Outbreak and topics like Cartography with Metapopulation and Infectious Disease Epidemiology. His research integrates issues of Acquired immune system, Immunology, Common cold, Immunity and Coronavirus in his study of Transmission.

His Vaccination study contributes to a more complete understanding of Virology. His work deals with themes such as Epidemic model, Econometrics and MMR vaccine, which intersect with Pandemic. His work carried out in the field of Coronavirus disease 2019 brings together such families of science as Public health interventions and Environmental health.
