Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Artificial intelligence

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Ecological network, Ecology, Biodiversity and Food web. His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Network theory and Complex network. In his study, Theoretical ecology is strongly linked to Stability, which falls under the umbrella field of Ecological network.

His Ecology study incorporates themes from Stability and Dynamical systems theory. His Biodiversity research incorporates themes from Competitor analysis and Diversity. His Food web study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mutualism, Niche and Ecological stability.

His most cited work include:

  • Stability criteria for complex ecosystems (632 citations)
  • Parasites in food webs: the ultimate missing links (577 citations)
  • Beyond pairwise mechanisms of species coexistence in complex communities (281 citations)

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

Ecology, Ecological network, Ecosystem, Food web and Trophic level are his primary areas of study. His Ecology study focuses mostly on Biodiversity, Ecology, Food chain, Predation and Mutualism. Stefano Allesina has included themes like Evolutionary biology, Competitor analysis, Competition and Diversity in his Biodiversity study.

The various areas that Stefano Allesina examines in his Ecological network study include Theoretical computer science, Econometrics and Stability. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Optimal foraging theory, Dominator, Extinction and Ecological stability. In Trophic level, Stefano Allesina works on issues like Statistics, which are connected to Community matrix.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (78.99%)
  • Ecological network (42.03%)
  • Ecosystem (31.16%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Ecology (78.99%)
  • Process (3.62%)
  • Restoration ecology (3.62%)

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

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Process, Restoration ecology, Graph and Ecological succession. His studies in Ecology integrate themes in fields like Published Erratum and MEDLINE. His Process research covers fields of interest such as Community, Complex dynamics, Lead, Abstraction and Set.

Many of his Scalability research pursuits overlap with Clinical study design and Algae.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Predicting coexistence in experimental ecological communities (15 citations)
  • Tractable models of ecological assembly (4 citations)
  • Tractable models of ecological assembly. (1 citations)
