Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • IUCN Red List

Paul W. Shaw focuses on Ecology, Zoology, Poecilia, Guppy and Evolutionary biology. His Ecology research includes elements of Biological dispersal, Gene flow, Cichlid and Cuttlefish. His work carried out in the field of Gene flow brings together such families of science as Microsatellite and Mediterranean sea.

His work on Mating as part of general Zoology research is frequently linked to Genetic marker, bridging the gap between disciplines. The Poecilia study combines topics in areas such as Behavioral diversity and Predation. Paul W. Shaw interconnects Adaptation and Genetics in the investigation of issues within Evolutionary biology.

His most cited work include:

  • Age of Cichlids: New Dates for Ancient Lake Fish Radiations (261 citations)
  • Subtle population structuring within a highly vagile marine invertebrate, the veined squid Loligo forbesi, demonstrated with microsatellite DNA markers (178 citations)
  • Behavioural Consequences of an Artificial Introduction of Guppies (Poecilia reticulata) in N. Trinidad: Evidence for the Evolution of Anti-Predator Behaviour in the Wild (155 citations)

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

Paul W. Shaw mainly focuses on Ecology, Zoology, Microsatellite, Fishery and Evolutionary biology. His Ecology research integrates issues from Biological dispersal and Genetic variation. His study in Biological dispersal is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Gene flow and Panmixia.

His research integrates issues of Poecilia, Guppy, Loligo reynaudii and Cuttlefish in his study of Zoology. His Microsatellite research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Genetics, Genotyping and Population genetics. His Fisheries management, Cephalopod and Loligo study, which is part of a larger body of work in Fishery, is frequently linked to Coastal fish, bridging the gap between disciplines.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (66.93%)
  • Zoology (42.52%)
  • Microsatellite (29.92%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2020)?

  • Ecology (66.93%)
  • Evolutionary biology (22.05%)
  • Species complex (13.39%)

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

Paul W. Shaw mainly investigates Ecology, Evolutionary biology, Species complex, Phylogeography and Monophyly. The study incorporates disciplines such as Biological dispersal and Genetic variation in addition to Ecology. His research investigates the connection between Biological dispersal and topics such as Cancer pagurus that intersect with problems in Gene flow.

His Evolutionary biology study incorporates themes from Taxonomy and Microsatellite. His Microsatellite research incorporates elements of Lucanus cervus, Stag beetle, Endangered species, Population genetics and Genetic variability. His Zoology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Trachurus, Panmixia and Horse mackerel.

Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • A synthesis of European seahorse taxonomy, population structure, and habitat use as a basis for assessment, monitoring and conservation (14 citations)
  • Genomic analysis reveals multiple mismatches between biological and management units in yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) (13 citations)
  • Genomic analysis reveals multiple mismatches between biological and management units in yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) (13 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • IUCN Red List

Paul W. Shaw spends much of his time researching Ecology, Species complex, Genetic variation, Phylogeography and Thunnus. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Microsatellite and Ecology. His studies deal with areas such as Micromesistius, Population genetics and Genetic erosion as well as Microsatellite.

His Genetic variation study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Southern blue whiting. A majority of his Phylogeography research is a blend of other scientific areas, such as Range, Genetic divergence, Context, Doryteuthis opalescens and Doryteuthis plei. Fishery and Yellowfin tuna are fields of study that intersect with his Thunnus research.
