Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Ecosystem

Richard P. Duncan mostly deals with Ecology, Introduced species, Habitat, Range and Extinction. His Ecology study focuses mostly on Biodiversity, Interspecific competition, Dacrydium cupressinum, Endemism and Forest dynamics. His Interspecific competition study combines topics in areas such as Adaptation and Intraspecific competition.

His Introduced species study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Abundance, Colonisation, Predation, Invasive species and Ecosystem. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Mainland and Natural enemies. His Extinction research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Anatidae, Taxon, Anseriformes, Population size and Psittacidae.

His most cited work include:

  • A proposed unified framework for biological invasions. (1158 citations)
  • Are treelines advancing? A global meta‐analysis of treeline response to climate warming (741 citations)
  • Are treelines advancing? A global meta‐analysis of treeline response to climate warming (741 citations)

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

Richard P. Duncan spends much of his time researching Ecology, Introduced species, Range, Extinction and Habitat. His Ecology study is mostly concerned with Invasive species, Interspecific competition, Predation, Biodiversity and Competition. His Introduced species research includes elements of Niche, Mainland, Propagule pressure and Ecosystem.

His Range study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Population density, Biological dispersal and Abundance. His studies deal with areas such as Habitat destruction, Population growth, Biogeography and Wildlife as well as Extinction. The various areas that Richard P. Duncan examines in his Habitat study include Predator, Archipelago and Vascular plant.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (100.81%)
  • Introduced species (40.65%)
  • Range (19.51%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2021)?

  • Ecology (100.81%)
  • Introduced species (40.65%)
  • Native plant (8.13%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Introduced species, Native plant, Invasive species and Ecology. His work on Beech, Forest dynamics and Nothofagus as part of general Ecology study is frequently linked to Crowding and Mortality rate, bridging the gap between disciplines. Richard P. Duncan combines subjects such as Mesopredator release hypothesis, Predation, Apex predator, Trophic cascade and Woody plant with his study of Introduced species.

His Native plant research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Urbanization, Biodiversity and Local extinction, Extinction. His Invasive species research incorporates themes from Afforestation, Genus and Endemism. His Ecology research integrates issues from Natural enemies and Ecosystem model.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A proposed unified framework for biological invasions. (1158 citations)
  • Unexpected consequences of control: competitive vs. predator release in a four‐species assemblage of invasive mammals (107 citations)
  • Unexpected consequences of control: competitive vs. predator release in a four‐species assemblage of invasive mammals (107 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Ecosystem

Richard P. Duncan focuses on Ecology, Introduced species, Mesopredator release hypothesis, Trophic cascade and Apex predator. Richard P. Duncan specializes in Ecology, namely Dendrology. His Dendrology research includes themes of Windthrow, Forest dynamics and Basal area.

His Forest dynamics research incorporates elements of Beech and Nothofagus. His study in Mesopredator release hypothesis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Animal ecology and Competition. His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ecosystem model and Field.
