OverviewAI-generated summary
Michael V. Plummer, Professor Emeritus at Harding University, has a scholarly record of 69 publications with 1,336 citations and an h-index of 20. His research primarily investigates reptile physiology and behavior, with a focus on turtles. Recent publications explore field body temperatures of squamates in relation to climate and behavior, the morphology of the urogenital system in the Mississippi Mud Turtle, and geographic variation in incubation temperatures for turtle offspring production. Plummer also studies hatchling smooth softshell turtles, including their respiratory behavior during overwintering.
His work extends to understanding the biological factors influencing offspring viability and the physical adaptations of reptiles. Collaborations include shared publications with Kyra M. Smith and Nathan E. Mills, both from Harding University. Plummer is recognized as a highly cited researcher.
