  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Genus

Rômulo Romeu Nóbrega Alves mostly deals with Ethnozoology, Ecology, Organotherapy, Biodiversity and Endangered species. The study incorporates disciplines such as Wildlife trade, Traditional knowledge, Fauna, Wildlife conservation and Sustainability in addition to Ethnozoology. The Ecology study which covers Ethnology that intersects with Magic and Conservation status.

His Biodiversity study combines topics in areas such as Natural resource, Exploitation of natural resources, Ecology and Subsistence agriculture. His research in Endangered species focuses on subjects like Health care, which are connected to Ethnomedicine. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Traditional medicine and Environmental protection.

His most cited work include:

  • The lunar-tide cycle viewed by crustacean and mollusc gatherers in the State of Paraíba, Northeast Brazil and their influence in collection attitudes (342 citations)
  • Fauna used in popular medicine in Northeast Brazil (264 citations)
  • Why study the use of animal products in traditional medicines (218 citations)

His work carried out in the field of Socioeconomics brings together such families of science as Ethnoherpetology, Bushmeat, Socioeconomic status and Fauna. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Biodiversity, Livestock, Taxon and Natural resource is strongly linked to Species richness.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Reshaping the future of ethnobiology research after the COVID-19 pandemic. (14 citations)
  • Hunters' preferences and perceptions as hunting predictors in a semiarid ecosystem. (5 citations)
  • NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES: a data set on carnivore distribution in the Neotropics (3 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Agriculture

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Agroforestry, Relative species abundance, Bioprospecting and Medicinal plants. He performs integrative Ecology and Count data research in his work. His Agroforestry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Rural area, Sustainability, Food resource and Sustainable development.

His Relative species abundance research includes themes of Resource and Bushmeat. His studies in Bioprospecting integrate themes in fields like Ethnozoology, Dry forest and Ethnobotany.
