Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • IUCN Red List

Ecology, Habitat, Turtle, Wetland and Bay are his primary areas of study. Ecology is closely attributed to Zoology in his research. His work in Habitat addresses issues such as Forest management, which are connected to fields such as Forest landscape, Silviculture, Census and Fauna.

His Turtle research incorporates themes from Tortoise, Range, Protected area and Species at risk. As a part of the same scientific family, J. Whitfield Gibbons mostly works in the field of Wetland, focusing on Biodiversity and, on occasion, Resource, Landscape ecology, Abiotic component and Ecosystem. His work deals with themes such as Juvenile, Logging and Larva, which intersect with Amphibian.

His most cited work include:

  • Sexual Dimorphism in Turtles with Emphasis on the Slider Turtle (Trachemys scripta) (315 citations)
  • CHAPTER 9 – Structure and Dynamics of an Amphibian Community: Evidence from a 16-Year Study of a Natural Pond (311 citations)
  • Influence of wetland hydroperiod on diversity and abundance of metamorphosing juvenile amphibians (237 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Zoology, Turtle, Habitat and Ecology. His study in Amphibian, Wetland, Avian clutch size, Range and Predation is done as part of Ecology. J. Whitfield Gibbons has researched Predation in several fields, including Terrapin, Malaclemys terrapin and Fishery.

His work on Sexual dimorphism is typically connected to Variation as part of general Zoology study, connecting several disciplines of science. His Habitat study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Forest management and Clearcutting. His study deals with a combination of Bay and Juvenile.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (62.58%)
  • Zoology (24.52%)
  • Turtle (18.06%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2021)?

  • Ecology (62.58%)
  • Habitat (16.13%)
  • Zoology (24.52%)

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

His main research concerns Ecology, Habitat, Zoology, Amphibian and Malaclemys terrapin. Wetland, Predation, Turtle, Range and Ecology are the primary areas of interest in his Ecology study. His Turtle research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Tortoise, Nesting season and Threatened species.

His Habitat research incorporates elements of Salt marsh, Marsh and Clearcutting. His study in the field of Sexual dimorphism, Spider and Latrodectus hesperus is also linked to topics like Variation. His study explores the link between Amphibian and topics such as Forest management that cross with problems in Leopard.

Between 2005 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Remarkable Amphibian Biomass and Abundance in an Isolated Wetland: Implications for Wetland Conservation (210 citations)
  • Effects of Timber Harvest on Amphibian Populations: Understanding Mechanisms from Forest Experiments (171 citations)
  • A Global Analysis of Tortoise and Freshwater Turtle Distributions with Identification of Priority Conservation Areas (152 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • IUCN Red List

J. Whitfield Gibbons focuses on Ecology, Habitat, Habitat destruction, Predation and Wetland. His study in Amphibian, Marbled salamander, Climate change, Swamp and Nerodia falls under the purview of Ecology. His study looks at the relationship between Habitat and fields such as Clearcutting, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

His Habitat destruction research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Population decline, Terrapin, Malaclemys terrapin, Fishery and Sex ratio. His Predation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Hibernation, Foraging, Seminatrix, Bycatch and Aestivation. J. Whitfield Gibbons has included themes like Fecundity, Biomass and Ectotherm in his Wetland study.
