1981 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Ecosystem

James R. Karr mainly investigates Ecology, Index of biological integrity, Environmental resource management, Biological integrity and Habitat. His study looks at the relationship between Ecology and fields such as STREAMS, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His Index of biological integrity study combines topics in areas such as Watershed, Species richness and RIVPACS.

His Environmental resource management research incorporates themes from Natural resource and Biodiversity. His Biological integrity research incorporates elements of Clean Water Act, Environmental engineering and Water resources. His Habitat study incorporates themes from Population density, Temperate climate and Species diversity.

His most cited work include:

  • THE NATURAL FLOW REGIME. A PARADIGM FOR RIVER CONSERVATION AND RESTORATION (4697 citations)
  • Assessment of Biotic Integrity Using Fish Communities (2041 citations)
  • Biological Integrity: A Long‐Neglected Aspect of Water Resource Management (1216 citations)

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

James R. Karr focuses on Ecology, Environmental resource management, Index of biological integrity, Habitat and Biological integrity. In his research, Water quality and Logging is intimately related to STREAMS, which falls under the overarching field of Ecology. His Environmental resource management research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biodiversity and Ecological risk.

His Index of biological integrity study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sampling, Urban planning, Stormwater and RIVPACS. The various areas that James R. Karr examines in his Habitat study include Fauna, Community structure, Vegetation and Species diversity. In Biological integrity, James R. Karr works on issues like Clean Water Act, which are connected to Coral reef, Coral reef protection and Wildlife.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (49.54%)
  • Environmental resource management (21.10%)
  • Index of biological integrity (19.27%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2020)?

  • Biodiversity (9.17%)
  • Environmental resource management (21.10%)
  • Fishery (8.26%)

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

James R. Karr mostly deals with Biodiversity, Environmental resource management, Fishery, Effects of global warming and Ecology. His research on Biodiversity also deals with topics like

  • Land management that connect with fields like Conservation biology, Ecosystem management, Northern spotted owl and Landscape connectivity,
  • Logging and related Natural ecosystem, Environmental protection, Water quality and Recreation. His studies deal with areas such as Population growth, Sustainability, Ecosystem-based management and Biological integrity as well as Environmental resource management.

His studies in Fishery integrate themes in fields like Clean Water Act, Hatchery and Oncorhynchus. He is interested in Public land, which is a field of Ecology. The Gelatinous zooplankton study which covers Species richness that intersects with Habitat.

Between 2007 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Adapting to climate change on western public lands: addressing the ecological effects of domestic, wild, and feral ungulates. (94 citations)
  • Abundance, Stock Origin, and Length of Marked and Unmarked Juvenile Chinook Salmon in the Surface Waters of Greater Puget Sound (23 citations)
  • Geographic Patterns of Fishes and Jellyfish in Puget Sound Surface Waters (14 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

His primary areas of study are Oncorhynchus, Fishery, Hatchery, Species richness and Ecology. His Oncorhynchus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Estuary, Juvenile and Littoral zone. James R. Karr has included themes like Biomass and Sound in his Fishery study.

James R. Karr combines subjects such as Abundance, Biome, Index of biological integrity and Disturbance with his study of Species richness. James R. Karr performs integrative study on Ecology and Effects of global warming.
