What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Parus montanus, Willow tit, Passerine and Willow.
Seppo Rytkönen connects Ecology with mtDNA control region in his research.
His work in Parus montanus is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Zoology.
His study in Passerine is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Food availability, Boreal, Climate change, Brood and Nest.
His Willow study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Overwintering, Philopatry, Biological dispersal, Foraging and Environmental factor.
Seppo Rytkönen combines subjects such as Animal ecology and Sociality with his study of Flock.
His most cited work include:
- Glacial history and colonization of Europe by the blue tit Parus caeruleus (530 citations)
- The design of artificial nestboxes for the study of secondary hole-nesting birds: a review of methodological inconsistencies and potential biases (247 citations)
- Prior residency as a key determinant of social dominance in the willow tit (Parus montanus) (86 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Willow tit, Parus, Nest and Zoology.
By researching both Ecology and Demography, he produces research that crosses academic boundaries.
His Willow tit study incorporates themes from Fecundity, Animal ecology and Seasonal breeder.
His Parus study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Poecile, Nest box, Avian clutch size and Ficedula.
His Nest research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Parental investment, Brood, Paternal care and Predator.
The Zoology study combines topics in areas such as Reproduction and Reproductive success.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (84.06%)
- Willow tit (36.23%)
- Parus (30.43%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?
- Ecology (84.06%)
- Parus (30.43%)
- Predation (21.74%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Ecology, Parus, Predation, Cyanistes and Poecile are his primary areas of study.
Willow tit, Avian clutch size, Passerine, Predator and Phenology are the primary areas of interest in his Ecology study.
His research in Avian clutch size intersects with topics in Intraspecific competition, Interspecific competition, Natural selection, Ficedula and Nest box.
His research in Passerine tackles topics such as Biological dispersal which are related to areas like Dominance and Post settlement.
His Predation research integrates issues from Trophic level and Zoology.
Seppo Rytkönen focuses mostly in the field of Poecile, narrowing it down to topics relating to Willow and, in certain cases, Chickadee.
Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Variation in clutch size in relation to nest size in birds (33 citations)
- Clutch-size variation in Western Palaearctic secondary hole-nesting passerine birds in relation to nest box design (30 citations)
- Interspecific variation in the relationship between clutch size, laying date and intensity of urbanization in four species of hole-nesting birds (28 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
Seppo Rytkönen focuses on Ecology, Parus, Cyanistes, Predation and Nest box.
Seppo Rytkönen works in the field of Ecology, namely Passerine.
His research investigates the connection between Parus and topics such as Poecile that intersect with problems in Boreal, Fecundity, Caterpillar and Willow tit.
His Predation research incorporates elements of Trophic level and Zoology.
His work on Sexual selection and Intraspecific competition as part of general Zoology study is frequently linked to Clutch, bridging the gap between disciplines.
He has included themes like Avian clutch size and Ficedula in his Nest box study.
