Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Ethan J. Royal's research focuses on the ecology and conservation of various animal species, with a particular emphasis on herpetofauna and avian populations. His work investigates how landscape characteristics, land use history, and environmental degradation influence species occupancy and behavior. Royal has studied the effects of prairie restoration on box turtle thermal ecology and evaluated translocation strategies for these turtles in urbanizing environments. His publications also explore foraging behaviors in snakes, the role of non-native species in food webs, and the survival rates of birds. He has collaborated with researchers from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville on shared publications. Royal's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 3, with 10 publications and 20 citations.
