Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • IUCN Red List
  • Habitat

Her main research concerns Ecology, Biodiversity, Introduced species, Threatened species and Predation. Her Ecology study focuses mostly on Feral cat, Habitat, Habitat destruction, Fauna and Species richness. Sarah Legge applies her multidisciplinary studies on Biodiversity and Context in her research.

Her Introduced species research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Wildlife conservation, Wildlife management and Wildlife. Her work carried out in the field of Threatened species brings together such families of science as Range, Tropics, Species distribution, Quoll and Rainforest. She has included themes like Kookaburra, Dacelo novaeguineae, Brood, Foraging and Nest in her Predation study.

Her most cited work include:

  • Sex ratios in birds and mammals: can the hypotheses be disentangled? (240 citations)
  • The disappearing mammal fauna of northern Australia: context, cause, and response (222 citations)
  • The disappearing mammal fauna of northern Australia: context, cause, and response (222 citations)

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

Sarah Legge spends much of her time researching Ecology, Threatened species, Biodiversity, Zoology and Predation. Her work in the fields of Ecology, such as Habitat, Feral cat, Mammal and Introduced species, intersects with other areas such as Context. Her Introduced species study deals with Wildlife management intersecting with Wildlife conservation.

Her studies deal with areas such as Endangered species, Extinction, Environmental planning, IUCN Red List and Vulpes as well as Threatened species. Her biological study deals with issues like Fire regime, which deal with fields such as Fire ecology and Frugivore. Sarah Legge interconnects Population density, Fauna and Wildlife in the investigation of issues within Predation.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (111.97%)
  • Threatened species (72.65%)
  • Biodiversity (51.71%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Threatened species (72.65%)
  • Ecology (111.97%)
  • Biodiversity (51.71%)

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

Sarah Legge mainly investigates Threatened species, Ecology, Biodiversity, Predation and Mammal. Her Threatened species research includes themes of IUCN Red List, Endangered species, Extinction and Environmental planning. Her Feral cat study in the realm of Ecology interacts with subjects such as Context and Extinct species.

Her study in the field of Habitat destruction also crosses realms of Political science and Environmental ethics. Her Predation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Zoology, Abundance, Fauna and Wildlife. Her Mammal study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Range, Vulpes and Introduced species.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Introduced cats (Felis catus) eating a continental fauna: the number of mammals killed in Australia (37 citations)
  • Reading the black book: The number, timing, distribution and causes of listed extinctions in Australia (26 citations)
  • Reading the black book: The number, timing, distribution and causes of listed extinctions in Australia (26 citations)
