Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Habitat

His primary scientific interests are in Biodiversity, Ecology, Environmental protection, Environmental resource management and Urbanization. The Biodiversity study combines topics in areas such as Urban density and Agroforestry. His Ecology study incorporates themes from Natural resource economics and Extinction.

His Environmental protection research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Protected area and Occurrence data. His Environmental resource management research integrates issues from Environmental monitoring, Environmental economics and Ecosystem services. His work carried out in the field of Urbanization brings together such families of science as Space, Marketing, Per capita and Urban planning.

His most cited work include:

  • Determining trophic niche width: a novel approach using stable isotope analysis (850 citations)
  • Psychological benefits of greenspace increase with biodiversity (805 citations)
  • Biodiversity: The ravages of guns, nets and bulldozers (634 citations)

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

Richard A. Fuller focuses on Ecology, Biodiversity, Habitat, Threatened species and Environmental resource management. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Extinction and Ecology. Richard A. Fuller has researched Biodiversity in several fields, including Ecosystem services, Environmental planning, Environmental protection, Climate change and Protected area.

His work carried out in the field of Habitat brings together such families of science as Intertidal zone, Vegetation and Predation. The study incorporates disciplines such as Range, IUCN Red List, Endangered species and Introduced species in addition to Threatened species. Richard A. Fuller works mostly in the field of Environmental resource management, limiting it down to topics relating to Ecosystem and, in certain cases, Agroforestry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (48.20%)
  • Biodiversity (38.13%)
  • Habitat (22.66%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Biodiversity (38.13%)
  • Threatened species (21.58%)
  • Ecology (48.20%)

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

Richard A. Fuller spends much of his time researching Biodiversity, Threatened species, Ecology, Habitat and Habitat destruction. His Biodiversity study combines topics in areas such as Protected area, Environmental resource management and Ecosystem. His Threatened species study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Environmental protection, Ecology, IUCN Red List, Species richness and Statistics.

His Ecology study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Extinction. His study focuses on the intersection of Habitat and fields such as Abundance with connections in the field of Population growth, Tropical ecology, Philopatry and Predation. His Habitat destruction research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Eastern curlew, Fishery, Wetland and Ecosystem services.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Global conservation of species' niches. (22 citations)
  • Estimating the benefit of well-managed protected areas for threatened species conservation (13 citations)
  • Life satisfaction linked to the diversity of nature experiences and nature views from the window (12 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Habitat

His primary areas of investigation include Threatened species, Biodiversity, Ecology, Range and Social psychology. The Threatened species study combines topics in areas such as Statistics, Species richness and Occupancy. His Species richness research includes themes of Endangered species, Generalist and specialist species and Environmental resource management.

His Biodiversity research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Protected area and Ecological niche. His study involves Butterfly and Flyway, a branch of Ecology. Richard A. Fuller has included themes like Urbanization and Extinction in his Social psychology study.
