Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Habitat

His main research concerns Ecology, Chytridiomycosis, Amphibian, Rana muscosa and Emerging infectious disease. His Ecology study incorporates themes from Clade, Vicariance and Molecular phylogenetics. His work carried out in the field of Chytridiomycosis brings together such families of science as Zoology, Threatened species, Host and Extinction.

His Extinction research includes elements of Habitat destruction and Biodiversity. Vance T. Vredenburg brings together Amphibian and Chytridiomycota to produce work in his papers. As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Rana muscosa, concentrating on Introduced species and frequently concerns with Mountain frog, Predatory fish and Population density.

His most cited work include:

  • Are we in the midst of the sixth mass extinction? A view from the world of amphibians (1083 citations)
  • Are we in the midst of the sixth mass extinction? A view from the world of amphibians (1083 citations)
  • Dynamics of an emerging disease drive large-scale amphibian population extinctions (462 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Amphibian, Chytridiomycosis, Zoology and Habitat. His Ecology study often links to related topics such as Fungus. While working in this field, Vance T. Vredenburg studies both Amphibian and Chytridiomycota.

His research integrates issues of Host, Biodiversity, Emerging infectious disease and Epizootic in his study of Chytridiomycosis. His Zoology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Wildlife, Lithobates, Panzootic and Antimicrobial peptides. His study explores the link between Threatened species and topics such as Habitat destruction that cross with problems in Extinction event.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (82.69%)
  • Amphibian (81.73%)
  • Chytridiomycosis (74.04%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2020)?

  • Chytridiomycosis (74.04%)
  • Amphibian (81.73%)
  • Zoology (58.65%)

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

Chytridiomycosis, Amphibian, Zoology, Ecology and Biodiversity are his primary areas of study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Panzootic and Emerging infectious disease in addition to Chytridiomycosis. His work on Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis is typically connected to Enzootic as part of general Amphibian study, connecting several disciplines of science.

His work on Sympatric speciation as part of general Zoology research is frequently linked to Microbiome, bridging the gap between disciplines. His work often combines Ecology and Geography studies. His Biodiversity research incorporates themes from Infectious disease and Taricha.

Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • People, pollution and pathogens – Global change impacts in mountain freshwater ecosystems (35 citations)
  • Extreme drought, host density, sex, and bullfrogs influence fungal pathogen infection in a declining lotic amphibian (25 citations)
  • Cryptic diversity of a widespread global pathogen reveals expanded threats to amphibian conservation. (22 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Genus

Vance T. Vredenburg mostly deals with Chytridiomycosis, Amphibian, Ecology, Zoology and Microbiome. His studies deal with areas such as Evolutionary biology, Range, Biodiversity and Emerging infectious disease as well as Chytridiomycosis. Vance T. Vredenburg merges many fields, such as Biodiversity and Chytridiomycota, in his writings.

His Amphibian study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Habitat. In his work, he performs multidisciplinary research in Ecology and Pandemic. His study looks at the intersection of Zoology and topics like Host with Pathogen, Endangered species and Species richness.
