Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Predation

Scott A. Wissinger mainly investigates Ecology, Predation, Intraguild predation, Foraging and Cannibalism. His research brings together the fields of Biological dispersal and Ecology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Dragonfly and Guild.

His Cannibalism research incorporates elements of Detritus, Fecundity, Metamorphosis, Competition and Population ecology. His study in Larva is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Zoology and Detritivore. His studies deal with areas such as Caudata, Predator and Apex predator as well as Tiger salamander.

His most cited work include:

  • Ecology of Insect Communities in Nontidal Wetlands (397 citations)
  • Cyclic Colonization in Predictably Ephemeral Habitats: A Template for Biological Control in Annual Crop Systems (249 citations)
  • Invertebrates in freshwater wetlands of North America : ecology and management (238 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Predation, Habitat, Larva and Limnephilus. His is involved in several facets of Ecology study, as is seen by his studies on Caddisfly, Invertebrate, Tiger salamander, Intraguild predation and Foraging. His Invertebrate research includes themes of Climate change and Wetland.

His Foraging research incorporates themes from Trophic level and Polyphenism. His study in Predation focuses on Predator in particular. In his study, Intraspecific competition is strongly linked to Cannibalism, which falls under the umbrella field of Larva.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (141.25%)
  • Predation (46.25%)
  • Habitat (47.50%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Ecology (141.25%)
  • Environmental science (30.00%)
  • Wetland (20.00%)

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

Scott A. Wissinger spends much of his time researching Ecology, Environmental science, Wetland, Climate change and Brown trout. Scott A. Wissinger connects Ecology with American alligator in his research. His study in Wetland is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Diel vertical migration and Carbon dioxide.

The Climate change study combines topics in areas such as Range, Caddisfly, Phenology and Salamander. The concepts of his Range study are interwoven with issues in Fecundity, Montane ecology, Limnephilus and Abiotic component. His Caddisfly research includes themes of Ecological stoichiometry, Invertebrate, Guild and Interspecific competition.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

    1. Wetland Animal Ecology (37 citations)
  • Role of animal detritivores in the breakdown of emergent plant detritus in temporary ponds (7 citations)
  • Seasonal differences in climate change explain a lack of multi-decadal shifts in population characteristics of a pond breeding salamander (5 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Predation

Ecology, Wetland, Environmental science, Climate change and Ecology are his primary areas of study. Scott A. Wissinger undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Ecology and Excretion through his works. His study in Excretion intersects with areas of studies such as Ecological stoichiometry, Invertebrate, Guild, Caddisfly and Interspecific competition.

His Ecology study combines topics in areas such as Animal ecology and Wetland ecology. Scott A. Wissinger interconnects Ambystoma maculatum, Amphibian, Salamander, Range and Global warming in the investigation of issues within Phenology. His Detritivore study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Lake ecosystem, Vascular plant and Detritus.
