OverviewAI-generated summary
William H. Kirkpatrick's research investigates the influence of environmental temperature on animal reproductive and breeding behaviors. His work includes studies on dung beetles, specifically *Phanaeus vindex*, examining how mean temperature and temperature variance affect their reproductive actions. Kirkpatrick has also studied avian species, including Scaled Quail and Northern Bobwhite, and cavity-nesting birds, analyzing the impact of thermal variability and mean temperature on their breeding behaviors and offspring outcomes. His research also explores the broader role of behavior in responses to anthropogenic environmental changes. Kirkpatrick has 9 publications and 31 citations, with an h-index of 2. He has collaborated with Erin L. Sauer and Sarah E. DuRant, both from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, on multiple publications.
