2009 - 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
  • Habitat
  • Predation

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Habitat, Salamander, Amphibian and Ambystoma talpoideum. In most of his Ecology studies, his work intersects topics such as Zoology. His research in Habitat intersects with topics in Biodiversity, Biological dispersal and Wetland.

His Amphibian research includes elements of Population decline, Agroforestry, Abundance, Carbaryl and Landscape ecology. His Ambystoma talpoideum research integrates issues from Neoteny and Population size. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Population density and Predation.

His most cited work include:

  • Time and size at metamorphosis related to adult fitness in Ambystoma talpoideum (742 citations)
  • Biological Criteria for Buffer Zones around Wetlands and Riparian Habitats for Amphibians and Reptiles (649 citations)
  • Declining Amphibian Populations: The Problem of Separating Human Impacts from Natural Fluctuations (639 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Habitat, Salamander, Larva and Amphibian. His work focuses on many connections between Ecology and other disciplines, such as Zoology, that overlap with his field of interest in Reproduction. The study incorporates disciplines such as Biodiversity, Biological dispersal, Metapopulation, Species richness and Wetland in addition to Habitat.

He has included themes like Abundance, Riparian zone and Plant litter in his Salamander study. His study in Larva is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Rana, Population density and Interspecific competition. His Ambystoma talpoideum research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Neoteny and Caudata.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (79.20%)
  • Habitat (26.00%)
  • Salamander (25.20%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2020)?

  • Ecology (79.20%)
  • Salamander (25.20%)
  • Habitat (26.00%)

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

Raymond D. Semlitsch mainly investigates Ecology, Salamander, Habitat, Amphibian and Ambystoma annulatum. His work in Ecology covers topics such as Biological dispersal which are related to areas like Genetic structure. His Salamander study incorporates themes from Foraging, Competition and Plant litter.

His Habitat research incorporates themes from Biodiversity, Metapopulation, Vegetation, Species diversity and Wetland. His Amphibian research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Forest management, Population density and Logging. As a part of the same scientific family, Raymond D. Semlitsch mostly works in the field of Ambystoma maculatum, focusing on Juvenile and, on occasion, Zoology, Larva and Ambystoma texanum.

Between 2010 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Ecological resistance surfaces predict fine-scale genetic differentiation in a terrestrial woodland salamander. (112 citations)
  • Movement ecology of amphibians: A missing component for understanding population declines (104 citations)
  • Fine-Scale Habitat Associations of a Terrestrial Salamander: The Role of Environmental Gradients and Implications for Population Dynamics (76 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Habitat
  • Predation

Raymond D. Semlitsch spends much of his time researching Ecology, Habitat, Salamander, Abundance and Species richness. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Biological dispersal and Ecology. His Habitat research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Metapopulation, Wetland and Occupancy.

His work in the fields of Salamander, such as Ambystoma annulatum, intersects with other areas such as Recovery rate. His Abundance research includes themes of Experimental forest and Competition. His work carried out in the field of Species richness brings together such families of science as Genetic diversity, Predation, Isolation by distance, Population size and Foraging.
