Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Predation

Torkild Tveraa focuses on Ecology, Reproduction, Foraging, Predation and Herbivore. His work in Ecosystem, Vegetation, Arctic, Global warming and Rissa tridactyla is related to Ecology. His Rissa tridactyla study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Ixodes and Ixodes uriae.

His work on Avian clutch size as part of general Reproduction study is frequently linked to Longevity, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His work carried out in the field of Foraging brings together such families of science as Spatial ecology, Time budget and Uria aalge. Torkild Tveraa combines subjects such as Zoology and Food shortage with his study of Life history theory.

His most cited work include:

  • USING FIRST‐PASSAGE TIME IN THE ANALYSIS OF AREA‐RESTRICTED SEARCH AND HABITAT SELECTION (417 citations)
  • ON THE COST OF REPRODUCTION IN LONG-LIVED BIRDS: THE INFLUENCE OF ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABILITY (245 citations)
  • Induced Shift in Ecosystem Productivity? Extensive Scale Effects of Abundant Large Herbivores (174 citations)

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

Torkild Tveraa spends much of his time researching Ecology, Reproduction, Predation, Foraging and Zoology. His Ecology study often links to related topics such as Reproductive success. In general Reproduction, his work in Avian clutch size is often linked to Longevity and Parental investment linking many areas of study.

His research investigates the connection between Predation and topics such as Livestock that intersect with problems in Herding. In his work, Population ecology and Habitat is strongly intertwined with Spatial ecology, which is a subfield of Foraging. His work in Zoology covers topics such as Hatching which are related to areas like Apex predator.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (70.75%)
  • Reproduction (14.15%)
  • Predation (14.15%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Ecology (70.75%)
  • Climate change (7.55%)
  • Arctic (7.55%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Climate change, Arctic, Svalbard reindeer and Food web. As part of his studies on Ecology, Torkild Tveraa often connects relevant areas like Biological dispersal. The various areas that he examines in his Climate change study include Population growth, Abundance, Fishery and Wildlife.

His Arctic study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Hydrography, Demersal fish, Bathymetry and Boreal. His Svalbard reindeer research includes elements of Global warming, Reproduction and Fecundity. In Food web, Torkild Tveraa works on issues like Carrion, which are connected to Predator, Endangered species, Goose and Culling.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Contrasting effects of summer and winter warming on body mass explain population dynamics in a food-limited Arctic herbivore. (66 citations)
  • Demographic effects of extreme weather events: snow storms, breeding success, and population growth rate in a long‐lived Antarctic seabird (28 citations)
  • Migration, prospecting, dispersal? What host movement matters for infectious agent circulation? (27 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Predation

Ecology, Arctic, Ecosystem, Cumulative effects and Fecundity are his primary areas of study. His Ecology research includes themes of Vital rates and Biological dispersal. His Biological dispersal study combines topics in areas such as Breeding in the wild, Scale and Black-legged kittiwake.

His research in Ecosystem intersects with topics in Shrub, Population density and Riparian zone. His study in Cumulative effects is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sexual selection, Compensatory growth and Cohort. The study incorporates disciplines such as Vegetation, Svalbard reindeer and Phenology in addition to Fecundity.
