What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Predation
- Zoology
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Offspring, Parus, Avian clutch size and Fledge.
His study in Ecology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Zoology, Developmental psychology, Sibling and Compensation.
His work on Paternal care as part of general Offspring research is frequently linked to Larus fuscus, bridging the gap between disciplines.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Abundance, Egg laying, Animal science and Phenotypic plasticity in addition to Parus.
His Avian clutch size research is within the category of Reproduction.
His research in Fledge intersects with topics in Seasonal breeder and Sex allocation, Sex ratio.
His most cited work include:
- Why don't birds lay more eggs? (399 citations)
- Experimental demonstration that offspring sex ratio varies with maternal condition (324 citations)
- Carotenoids and egg quality in the lesser black-backed gull Larus fuscus: a supplemental feeding study of maternal effects (293 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Zoology, Offspring, Avian clutch size and Hatching.
His study deals with a combination of Ecology and Taeniopygia.
His research integrates issues of Fecundity and Maternal effect in his study of Zoology.
The Offspring study combines topics in areas such as Fledge, Brood, Yolk and Sex ratio.
In Avian clutch size, Ruedi G. Nager works on issues like Intraspecific competition, which are connected to Competition.
In his research, Seasonal breeder is intimately related to Animal ecology, which falls under the overarching field of Nest.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (66.67%)
- Zoology (36.78%)
- Offspring (22.99%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2020)?
- Ecology (66.67%)
- Zoology (36.78%)
- Larus (9.20%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Zoology, Larus, Range and Fishery.
He performs multidisciplinary study on Ecology and Amazonian in his works.
His work in the fields of Zoology, such as Cyanistes, overlaps with other areas such as Pre breeding.
When carried out as part of a general Larus research project, his work on Herring gull is frequently linked to work in Habitat and Firth, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
His Range research includes themes of Evolutionary biology, Sexual selection, Parus and Reproductive success.
Ruedi G. Nager has researched Parus in several fields, including Directional selection, Competition, Nest, Ficedula and Spatial heterogeneity.
Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:
- Tritrophic phenological match-mismatch in space and time. (46 citations)
- Variation in reproductive success across captive populations: Methodological differences, potential biases and opportunities (38 citations)
- Eye region surface temperature reflects both energy reserves and circulating glucocorticoids in a wild bird. (17 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Predation
- Zoology
Ruedi G. Nager mainly investigates Ecology, Range, Zoology, Blood sampling and Corticosterone.
His Ecology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Population size and Directional selection.
His Range research incorporates elements of Resource, Foraging, Fishery and Habitat.
His work deals with themes such as Energy reserves, Lower body, Life History Stages and Body condition, which intersect with Zoology.
His Energy reserves research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Glucocorticoid secretion and Glucocorticoid.
The concepts of his Blood sampling study are interwoven with issues in Homeothermy and Animal science.
