Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

William H. Kirkpatrick is a PhD Candidate at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville who studies the impact of environmental factors on animal behavior. His research has investigated how experimental increases in temperature mean and variance affect reproductive behaviors in dung beetles, specifically *Phanaeus vindex*. Kirkpatrick has also examined the influence of thermal variability and mean temperature on critical reproductive behaviors in Scaled Quail and Northern Bobwhite. His work involves experimental manipulations to understand these ecological and behavioral responses. Kirkpatrick collaborates with researchers such as Erin L. Sauer and Sarah E. DuRant, with whom he has co-authored multiple publications. His academic contributions, though early in his career, indicate a focus on behavioral ecology and environmental physiology.
