Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Statistics

Richard G. Pearson mostly deals with Ecology, Climate change, Environmental niche modelling, Species distribution and Artificial neural network. His study in the field of Global biodiversity also crosses realms of Latent extinction risk. His work on Global warming and Global change as part of general Climate change research is often related to Envelope and Uv b radiation, thus linking different fields of science.

His work carried out in the field of Environmental niche modelling brings together such families of science as Ecology and Cohen's kappa. His Species distribution study combines topics in areas such as Conservation planning, Protected area, Environmental resource management and Climate change scenario. His Ecological niche study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Range and Statistics, Sample size determination, Range.

His most cited work include:

  • Predicting the impacts of climate change on the distribution of species: are bioclimate envelope models useful? (2968 citations)
  • Predicting species distributions from small numbers of occurrence records: A test case using cryptic geckos in Madagascar (1879 citations)
  • Selecting thresholds of occurrence in the prediction of species distributions (1736 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Climate change, Environmental resource management, Biodiversity and Ecological niche. His Ecology research focuses on subjects like Biological dispersal, which are linked to Environmental change. His research in Climate change tackles topics such as Extinction which are related to areas like IUCN Red List.

The Biodiversity study which covers Temporal scales that intersects with Environmental studies and Effects of global warming. He studied Ecological niche and Niche that intersect with Resource. His Environmental niche modelling research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Statistics, Ecology and Biogeography.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (64.13%)
  • Climate change (55.43%)
  • Environmental resource management (23.91%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2020)?

  • Ecology (64.13%)
  • Genetics (9.78%)
  • Climate change (55.43%)

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

Richard G. Pearson spends much of his time researching Ecology, Genetics, Climate change, Species distribution and Biodiversity. Richard G. Pearson connects Ecology with Phylogenetic niche conservatism in his research. Climate change connects with themes related to Protected area in his study.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Environmental change and Biological dispersal. Richard G. Pearson interconnects Evolutionary ecology and Land use, land-use change and forestry in the investigation of issues within Biodiversity. When carried out as part of a general Ecological niche research project, his work on Environmental niche modelling is frequently linked to work in Bumblebee, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

Between 2015 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Indels, structural variation, and recombination drive genomic diversity in Plasmodium falciparum (97 citations)
  • Indels, structural variation, and recombination drive genomic diversity in Plasmodium falciparum (97 citations)
  • Linking macroecology and community ecology: refining predictions of species distributions using biotic interaction networks (73 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Biodiversity

Richard G. Pearson mainly investigates Mendelian inheritance, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Deep sequencing, Indel and Copy-number variation. He integrates several fields in his works, including Mendelian inheritance, Genetics and Structural variation.
