Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Genus

Steve D. Wratten mainly focuses on Ecology, Botany, Biological pest control, Agronomy and Predation. His biological study deals with issues like Biological dispersal, which deal with fields such as Predator and Microclimate. His work investigates the relationship between Botany and topics such as Horticulture that intersect with problems in Betulaceae.

His research in Biological pest control tackles topics such as Natural enemies which are related to areas like Weed control, Aquatic organisms and Foraging. The Agronomy study combines topics in areas such as PEST analysis, Homoptera, Vineyard and Sitobion avenae. As a part of the same scientific study, Steve D. Wratten usually deals with the Agriculture, concentrating on Agroforestry and frequently concerns with Ecosystem services.

His most cited work include:

  • Creation of island' habitats in farmland to manipulate populations of beneficial arthropods : predator densities and species composition (462 citations)
  • Arthropod pest management in organic crops (456 citations)
  • Repellency of volatile oils from plants against three mosquito vectors. (312 citations)

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

Steve D. Wratten mostly deals with Ecology, Botany, Agronomy, Biological pest control and Aphid. His study in Biological dispersal extends to Ecology with its themes. In his study, Larva is strongly linked to Horticulture, which falls under the umbrella field of Botany.

As a member of one scientific family, Steve D. Wratten mostly works in the field of Biological pest control, focusing on PEST analysis and, on occasion, Integrated pest management. His studies in Aphid integrate themes in fields like Acyrthosiphon pisum, Homoptera, Sitobion avenae, Aphididae and Poaceae. Environmental planning and Biodiversity is closely connected to Environmental resource management in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Agriculture.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (36.90%)
  • Botany (25.52%)
  • Agronomy (24.83%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2020)?

  • Ecology (36.90%)
  • Agriculture (11.03%)
  • Ecosystem services (12.07%)

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

His main research concerns Ecology, Agriculture, Ecosystem services, Agronomy and Agroforestry. His research related to Habitat, Biological pest control, Predation, Ecosystem and Parasitism might be considered part of Ecology. His research in Biological pest control intersects with topics in PEST analysis and Aphid, Hoverfly.

Steve D. Wratten has researched Agriculture in several fields, including Biodiversity, Ecology, Crop yield and Pollination. His study in Ecosystem services is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Agricultural land, Food security, Environmental resource management and Environmental planning. His studies deal with areas such as Pest control and Agroecology as well as Agroforestry.

Between 2012 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Global assessment of agricultural system redesign for sustainable intensification (158 citations)
  • Multi-country Evidence That Crop Diversification Promotes Ecological Intensification of Agriculture (152 citations)
  • Ecosystem services in agricultural and urban landscapes. (62 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Genus

Agriculture, Ecology, Ecosystem services, Agronomy and Biodiversity are his primary areas of study. Steve D. Wratten focuses mostly in the field of Agriculture, narrowing it down to matters related to Pollination and, in some cases, Weed control, Generalist and specialist species, Flowering plant and Agroecology. Ecology and Risk analysis are two areas of study in which Steve D. Wratten engages in interdisciplinary research.

The concepts of his Ecosystem services study are interwoven with issues in Agroforestry, Ecological systems theory, Environmental planning, Sustainable agriculture and Crop yield. As a part of the same scientific family, Steve D. Wratten mostly works in the field of Agronomy, focusing on Fagopyrum and, on occasion, Diplotaxis erucoides, Lobularia maritima, Alyssum and Hoverfly. Steve D. Wratten has included themes like Trophic level, Aphid and Biological pest control in his Parasitism study.
