What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Biodiversity
- Genus
Yves Basset focuses on Ecology, Species richness, Herbivore, Biodiversity and Rainforest.
Ecology is represented through his Guild, Canopy, Arthropod, Stratification and Tropics research.
His study in Species richness is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Tropical climate, Range and Species diversity.
Yves Basset interconnects Shrub, Temperate climate, Host, Macaranga and Generalist and specialist species in the investigation of issues within Herbivore.
His Biodiversity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Climate change and Ecosystem services.
His Rainforest research includes themes of Conservation biology, Global biodiversity, Temperate rainforest and Beta diversity.
His most cited work include:
- Low host specificity of herbivorous insects in a tropical forest (511 citations)
- Why Are There So Many Species of Herbivorous Insects in Tropical Rainforests (402 citations)
- Rare species in communities of tropical insect herbivores: pondering the mystery of singletons (396 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Rainforest, Species richness, Herbivore and Biodiversity.
His Ecology study is mostly concerned with Abundance, Canopy, Habitat, Arthropod and Understory.
His research in Rainforest tackles topics such as Arboreal locomotion which are related to areas like Foraging.
His Species richness study also includes
- Species diversity which intersects with area such as Global biodiversity,
- Botany that connect with fields like Seed predation.
His Herbivore course of study focuses on Insect and Lepidoptera genitalia.
His studies deal with areas such as Range, Taxon, Tropics, Ecosystem and Conservation biology as well as Biodiversity.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (116.84%)
- Rainforest (60.71%)
- Species richness (49.49%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Ecology (116.84%)
- Rainforest (60.71%)
- Seed predation (6.63%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Yves Basset spends much of his time researching Ecology, Rainforest, Seed predation, Predation and Species richness.
His work on Herbivore, Woody plant, Biodiversity and Plant litter as part of general Ecology research is frequently linked to Janzen–Connell hypothesis, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His Herbivore study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Nestedness, Sampling and Canopy.
His Rainforest study combines topics in areas such as Guazuma ulmifolia, Malvaceae, Horticulture and Crop.
His work focuses on many connections between Predation and other disciplines, such as Host, that overlap with his field of interest in Generalist and specialist species, Coevolution, Sympatric speciation and Ficus.
His Species richness study incorporates themes from Taxonomy, Species distribution and Guild.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- International scientists formulate a roadmap for insect conservation and recovery (69 citations)
- Interpreting insect declines: seven challenges and a way forward (60 citations)
- Toward a world that values insects (35 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Genus
- Biodiversity
Yves Basset mainly investigates Ecology, Herbivore, Woody plant, Secondary succession and Chronosequence.
Yves Basset is involved in the study of Ecology that focuses on Host in particular.
The various areas that Yves Basset examines in his Host study include Generalist and specialist species, Ficus, Coevolution and Sympatric speciation.
His studies in Woody plant integrate themes in fields like Trophic level, Food web, Predation and Plant community.
His Secondary succession research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Rainforest and Beta diversity.
