Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Biodiversity

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Ecosystem, Forest ecology, Biodiversity and Nutrient cycle. His Ecology study combines topics in areas such as Biological dispersal and Seed dispersal. His Forest ecology research includes themes of Fishery and Habitat.

The Nutrient cycle study combines topics in areas such as Ecology, Anthropocene, Terrestrial ecosystem and Footprint. Stephen Blake works mostly in the field of Poaching, limiting it down to concerns involving CITES and, occasionally, Threatened species. His Wildlife research includes elements of Population density, Range, Population size and Ivory.

His most cited work include:

  • Averting biodiversity collapse in tropical forest protected areas (662 citations)
  • Moving in the Anthropocene : global reductions in terrestrial mammalian movements (350 citations)
  • Moving in the Anthropocene : global reductions in terrestrial mammalian movements (350 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Tortoise, Chelonoidis, Habitat and Herbivore. His research in Ecology intersects with topics in Biological dispersal and Seed dispersal. His Tortoise research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Wildlife, Taxon, Introduced species, Generalist and specialist species and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index.

His work on Wildlife conservation as part of general Wildlife study is frequently connected to Subsistence agriculture, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. His studies in Habitat integrate themes in fields like National park, Forest ecology and Fishery. Stephen Blake combines subjects such as Rainforest and Competition with his study of Ecosystem.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (92.22%)
  • Tortoise (21.11%)
  • Chelonoidis (18.89%)

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

  • Ecology (92.22%)
  • Herbivore (20.00%)
  • Tortoise (21.11%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Herbivore, Tortoise, Chelonoidis and Ecosystem. His research in Ecology is mostly focused on Competition. His Tortoise research includes elements of Ectotherm, Nominal group technique and Wildlife.

His studies deal with areas such as Taxon, Feces, Cloaca and Archipelago as well as Wildlife. His Chelonoidis research integrates issues from Trampling, Seed dispersal and Habitat. His Habitat research incorporates elements of Terrapene ornata, Urbanization and Fishery.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Carbon stocks in central African forests enhanced by elephant disturbance (23 citations)
  • Carbon stocks in central African forests enhanced by elephant disturbance (23 citations)
  • Antimicrobial resistance genes present in the faecal microbiota of free-living Galapagos tortoises (Chelonoidis porteri). (5 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Biodiversity

Ecology, Antibiotic resistance, Taxon, Wildlife and Feces are his primary areas of study. In his research, Stephen Blake performs multidisciplinary study on Ecology and Forest inventory. You can notice a mix of various disciplines of study, such as Archipelago, Cloaca, Chelonoidis, Zoology and Tortoise, in his Antibiotic resistance studies.

His Rainforest research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Productivity, Primary production and Herbivore.
