Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Ecosystem

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Habitat, Environmental resource management, Floodplain and Oncorhynchus. The concepts of his Ecology study are interwoven with issues in Drainage basin and Spatial distribution. His work in the fields of Fish migration overlaps with other areas such as Psychological resilience.

His research investigates the connection with Environmental resource management and areas like Watershed which intersect with concerns in Current and Stream restoration. His Floodplain research incorporates elements of River ecosystem, Riparian zone and Fluvial. His work deals with themes such as Glacial period, Biological dispersal and Disturbance, which intersect with Oncorhynchus.

His most cited work include:

  • The Network Dynamics Hypothesis: How Channel Networks Structure Riverine Habitats (647 citations)
  • A Review of Stream Restoration Techniques and a Hierarchical Strategy for Prioritizing Restoration in Pacific Northwest Watersheds (516 citations)
  • Process-based Principles for Restoring River Ecosystems (401 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

George R. Pess spends much of his time researching Fishery, Ecology, Habitat, Oncorhynchus and Dam removal. His Fishery research incorporates themes from Chinook wind, Juvenile, STREAMS, Fish migration and Rainbow trout. His Ecology research includes elements of Drainage basin and Spatial distribution.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Floodplain, Restoration ecology, Climate change, Sound and Spatial ecology. His studies deal with areas such as Habitat destruction, Watershed, Aquatic animal and Environmental resource management as well as Restoration ecology. The Oncorhynchus study combines topics in areas such as Trout, Range, Biological dispersal and Abundance.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Fishery (46.43%)
  • Ecology (44.64%)
  • Habitat (42.86%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Fishery (46.43%)
  • Dam removal (18.75%)
  • Habitat (42.86%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

George R. Pess focuses on Fishery, Dam removal, Habitat, Fish migration and Oncorhynchus. George R. Pess has included themes like Ecology, Rainbow trout, River watershed and STREAMS in his Fishery study. His Dam removal research integrates issues from Hydrology, Ecology, Ecosystem and Fish diet.

George R. Pess interconnects Genetic structure and Genetic diversity in the investigation of issues within Ecology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Diel vertical migration, Floodplain and Chinook wind. The study incorporates disciplines such as Range, Climate change, Homing, Glacier and Aquatic ecosystem in addition to Oncorhynchus.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Dam removal: Listening in (77 citations)
  • Conceptualizing Ecological Responses to Dam Removal: If You Remove It, What's to Come? (34 citations)
  • Morphodynamic evolution following sediment release from the world's largest dam removal. (32 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Habitat

George R. Pess mostly deals with Dam removal, Hydrology, Fishery, Watershed and Floodplain. His Dam removal research focuses on Ecosystem and how it connects with Environmental monitoring and Riparian zone. His work in Hydrology addresses issues such as Sediment, which are connected to fields such as Erosion and Land use.

As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Fishery, focusing on STREAMS and, on occasion, Lower Elwha, Tributary, Fish migration, Spawn and Oncorhynchus. The concepts of his Watershed study are interwoven with issues in Productivity, Restoration ecology and Chinook wind. His Floodplain research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Deposition, Sediment transport, Habitat and Sedimentation.
