Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Agriculture

Ecology, Fauna, Hydrology, RIVPACS and Invertebrate are his primary areas of study. While the research belongs to areas of Fauna, he spends his time largely on the problem of Benthos, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Biomass, Tributary and Species diversity. His studies in Hydrology integrate themes in fields like Range and Sediment.

His research in Sediment intersects with topics in Channel and STREAMS. The RIVPACS study combines topics in areas such as Environmental data, Sampling, Ordination and Surface water. His work carried out in the field of Invertebrate brings together such families of science as Taxon, River management, Habitat and Flexibility.

His most cited work include:

  • Biological Effects of Fine Sediment in the Lotic Environment (1041 citations)
  • The performance of a new biological water quality score system based on macroinvertebrates over a wide range of unpolluted running-water sites (834 citations)
  • A preliminary classification of running‐water sites in Great Britain based on macro‐invertebrate species and the prediction of community type using environmental data (491 citations)

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

Patrick D. Armitage focuses on Ecology, Hydrology, Fauna, Invertebrate and Habitat. His work on STREAMS expands to the thematically related Ecology. Patrick D. Armitage has included themes like Biomass and Sediment in his Hydrology study.

His work deals with themes such as Sampling, Abundance, Profundal zone and Species diversity, which intersect with Fauna. His research investigates the connection between Invertebrate and topics such as Ordination that intersect with problems in Environmental data. His research investigates the link between Channel and topics such as River ecosystem that cross with problems in Streamflow.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (58.62%)
  • Hydrology (30.17%)
  • Fauna (24.14%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2020)?

  • Ecology (58.62%)
  • Hydrology (30.17%)
  • Invertebrate (20.69%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Hydrology, Invertebrate, Species richness and Aquatic ecosystem. Ecology connects with themes related to Channel in his study. Hydrology is closely attributed to Habitat in his study.

His study in Invertebrate is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both River regulation, Benthic zone and STREAMS. His study looks at the relationship between Species richness and topics such as Sediment, which overlap with Sustainability and Water resources. His Aquatic ecosystem research includes elements of Climate change, Climate model, Freshwater ecosystem, Disturbance and Fauna.

Between 2008 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • THE IMPACT OF FINE SEDIMENT ON MACRO-INVERTEBRATES (257 citations)
  • The response of perennial and temporary headwater stream invertebrate communities to hydrological extremes (78 citations)
  • Climate Change Impacts on Community Resilience. Evidence from a Drought Disturbance Experiment (53 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Habitat

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Invertebrate, Species richness, Hydrobiology and Sediment. His is involved in several facets of Ecology study, as is seen by his studies on Aquatic ecosystem, Community structure, Ecological succession and Woodland. His research in Invertebrate intersects with topics in Mesocosm, Ecological realism and Species diversity.

His Species richness study incorporates themes from Range, Biodiversity, Taxon, Pasture and Conservation status. His Hydrobiology study overlaps with STREAMS, Ecosystem, Biota and Benthic zone. His Sediment study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Hydrology, Water quality and Hydrology.
