Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Internal medicine

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Feces, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Excretion. The Ecology study combines topics in areas such as Population survey and Reproductive success. His Feces research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Pregnancy, Luteal phase, Molecular biology, Chromatography and Menstrual cycle.

Samuel K. Wasser regularly ties together related areas like Oryx in his Internal medicine studies. Samuel K. Wasser combines subjects such as Dehydroepiandrosterone, Metabolite, Progestogen, Urine and Radioimmunoassay with his study of Excretion. His Radioimmunoassay research integrates issues from Corticosterone, Antibody, Excretory system, Adrenocorticotropic hormone and Glucocorticoid.

His most cited work include:

  • A generalized fecal glucocorticoid assay for use in a diverse array of nondomestic mammalian and avian species. (560 citations)
  • Reproductive Suppression Among Female Mammals: Implications for Biomedicine and Sexual Selection Theory (397 citations)
  • Noninvasive Physiological Measures of Disturbance in the Northern Spotted Owl (294 citations)

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

Samuel K. Wasser mainly focuses on Ecology, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Feces and Zoology. His research integrates issues of Demography and Reproductive success in his study of Ecology. In his study, Population decline is strongly linked to Offspring, which falls under the umbrella field of Demography.

The Internal medicine study which covers Pregnancy that intersects with Obstetrics and Psychosocial. His Endocrinology study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Seasonal breeder. His work carried out in the field of Feces brings together such families of science as Hormone, Adrenocorticotropic hormone, Animal science, Excretion and Glucocorticoid.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (28.03%)
  • Internal medicine (21.21%)
  • Endocrinology (21.21%)

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

  • Zoology (15.91%)
  • Poaching (15.91%)
  • Feces (20.45%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Zoology, Poaching, Feces, Range and Hormone. While the research belongs to areas of Zoology, Samuel K. Wasser spends his time largely on the problem of Predation, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Whale. His Poaching research incorporates themes from African elephant and Socioeconomics.

His Feces study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Pollutant, Postpartum period, Reproduction, Pantholops hodgsonii and Hazardous waste. His Hormone study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Glucocorticoid, Blubber, Stressor, Bottlenose dolphin and Physiology. Samuel K. Wasser is investigating Glucocorticoid as part of his inquiry into Endocrinology and Internal medicine.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Dispersal limitation promotes the diversification of the mammalian gut microbiota (52 citations)
  • Population growth is limited by nutritional impacts on pregnancy success in endangered Southern Resident killer whales (Orcinus orca) (48 citations)
  • Blubber cortisol qualitatively reflects circulating cortisol concentrations in bottlenose dolphins (32 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Extinction

His primary areas of study are Fishery, Zoology, Bottlenose dolphin, Hormone and Blubber. His Fishery study combines topics in areas such as Poaching, Pregnancy, Endangered species and Apex predator. The study incorporates disciplines such as Microbiome, Allopatric speciation and Metacommunity in addition to Zoology.

His Bottlenose dolphin research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Aldosterone, Feces, Stressor, Endocrine system and Physiology. Hormone is a subfield of Internal medicine that Samuel K. Wasser explores. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Endocrinology and Marine mammal.
