1983 - 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
  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery

James Porter focuses on Ecology, Reef, Coral reef, Coral and White band disease. He connects Ecology with Zooxanthellae in his study. His Reef research incorporates elements of Cnidaria and Resource.

His Coral reef research includes elements of Bay and Atoll. His work deals with themes such as Photosynthesis and Habitat, which intersect with Coral. His research ties Skeletal eroding band and White band disease together.

His most cited work include:

  • Emerging Marine Diseases--Climate Links and Anthropogenic Factors (1473 citations)
  • Reef Corals: Mutualistic Symbioses Adapted to Nutrient-Poor Environments (759 citations)
  • Hurricane Allen's Impact on Jamaican Coral Reefs (496 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Coral reef, Nephrectomy, Coral and Reef. His study explores the link between Ecology and topics such as Disease that cross with problems in Ecology. His study in Coral reef is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Bay and Nutrient.

His studies in Nephrectomy integrate themes in fields like Logistic regression, Surgery, Renal function, Urology and Renal cell carcinoma. James Porter performs integrative study on Coral and Zooxanthellae in his works. His research in Reef intersects with topics in Benthic zone, Montastraea annularis, Species diversity and Habitat.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (33.58%)
  • Coral reef (27.74%)
  • Nephrectomy (26.28%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Nephrectomy (26.28%)
  • Surgery (22.63%)
  • Urology (8.76%)

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

James Porter mostly deals with Nephrectomy, Surgery, Urology, Perioperative and Retroperitoneal lymph node dissection. His Nephrectomy research integrates issues from Logistic regression, Insufflation and Renal function. In the field of Surgery, his study on Robotic surgery overlaps with subjects such as Span.

James Porter has included themes like Prostatectomy, Incidence, Propensity score matching, Stage and Cohort in his Urology study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Survival rate and Internal medicine in addition to Perioperative. James Porter incorporates a variety of subjects into his writings, including Progression-free survival, Independent predictor, Risk stratification, Disease and Risk groups.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Rapid spread of diseases in Caribbean coral reefs (147 citations)
  • Robot-assisted Laparoscopic Retroperitoneal Lymph Node Dissection for Testicular Cancer: Evolution of the Technique. (47 citations)
  • Nitrogen enrichment, altered stoichiometry, and coral reef decline at Looe Key, Florida Keys, USA: a 3-decade study (46 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery

James Porter mainly focuses on Surgery, Nephrectomy, Coral reef, Coral and Ecology. His studies deal with areas such as Kidney cancer and Kidney as well as Surgery. The various areas that James Porter examines in his Nephrectomy study include Young adult, Perioperative, Logistic regression and Cohort.

His work carried out in the field of Coral brings together such families of science as Reef, Fishery and Sound. His Coral bleaching, Porites astreoides and Resilience of coral reefs study in the realm of Reef connects with subjects such as Phosphorus and Period. Ecology is closely attributed to Indian ocean in his work.
