What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Enzyme
- Biochemistry
His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Zoology, Digestion, Nutrient and Foraging.
His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Food intake, Doubly labeled water and Animal science.
His Zoology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Adaptation, Assimilation and Nutrient absorption.
William H. Karasov has included themes like Intestinal absorption, Alpha-glucosidase, Maltase and Frugivore in his Digestion study.
His studies in Intestinal absorption integrate themes in fields like Amino acid and Small intestine.
As part of one scientific family, William H. Karasov deals mainly with the area of Nutrient, narrowing it down to issues related to the Herbivore, and often Nutrition physiology, Grouse, Excretion and Neotoma albigula.
His most cited work include:
- Physiological Ecology: How Animals Process Energy, Nutrients, and Toxins (288 citations)
- Morphometrics of the avian small intestine compared with that of nonflying mammals: a phylogenetic approach. (238 citations)
- Digestive physiology is a determinant of foraging bout frequency in hummingbirds. (205 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
William H. Karasov mainly focuses on Ecology, Zoology, Animal science, Endocrinology and Biochemistry.
His Ecology study often links to related topics such as Food intake.
His Zoology research incorporates elements of Insectivore, Digestion, Digestive physiology, Larva and Nutrient absorption.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Common loon, Doubly labeled water and Botany.
William H. Karasov works mostly in the field of Endocrinology, limiting it down to topics relating to Altricial and, in certain cases, Sparrow.
His study in the field of Intestinal absorption, Amino acid, Carbohydrate and Proline is also linked to topics like Paracellular transport.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (33.21%)
- Zoology (30.15%)
- Animal science (20.23%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?
- Zoology (30.15%)
- Paracellular transport (14.89%)
- Ecology (33.21%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Zoology, Paracellular transport, Ecology, Biochemistry and Small intestine are his primary areas of study.
His Zoology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Immune system, Larva and Endocrinology.
His Ecology study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Animal science.
The Animal science study combines topics in areas such as Absorption of water and Water content.
In the subject of general Biochemistry, his work in Carbohydrate, Lactose and Apical membrane is often linked to Sinigrin and Isoflavonoid, thereby combining diverse domains of study.
His Small intestine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Amino acid, Rodent and Transcellular.
Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Digestive Adaptations of Aerial Lifestyles (45 citations)
- Larval exposure to polychlorinated biphenyl 126 (PCB-126) causes persistent alteration of the amphibian gut microbiota. (34 citations)
- Arboreal Folivores Limit Their Energetic Output, All the Way to Slothfulness (26 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Enzyme
- Biochemistry
His main research concerns Ecology, Paracellular transport, Zoology, Gut flora and Larva.
His research on Ecology frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Animal science.
His Zoology research incorporates elements of Freshwater fish, Ichthyoplankton, Xenobiotic and Predation.
His study looks at the intersection of Gut flora and topics like Sparrow with Age related, Microbiome, Maltase, Digestion and Altricial.
William H. Karasov combines subjects such as Polychlorinated biphenyl, Anthropogenic pollutants, Perch and Lithobates pipiens with his study of Larva.
His research integrates issues of Amino acid, Small intestine, Transcellular and Integrative physiology in his study of Intestinal absorption.
