Overview

Anthony Lehmann is affiliated with the University of Geneva in Switzerland and focuses on research within the field of environmental science. Their work spans multiple subfields including global and planetary change, ecology, ecological modeling, nature and landscape conservation, and geography, planning, and development.

The primary topics addressed in their research include land use and ecosystem services, species distribution and climate change, wildlife ecology and conservation, ecology and vegetation dynamics studies, wildlife-road interactions and conservation, remote sensing in agriculture, and geographic information systems studies.

Lehmann has contributed to several recent papers, including:

  • "Knowledge generation using satellite earth observations to support sustainable development goals (SDG): A use case on Land degradation" (2020), published in International Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation
  • "Implementing Green Infrastructure for the Spatial Planning of Peri-Urban Areas in Geneva, Switzerland" (2020), published in Sustainability
  • "Methods for identifying green infrastructure" (2020), published in SN Applied Sciences
  • "Too many candidates: Embedded covariate selection procedure for species distribution modelling with the covsel R package" (2023), published in Ecological Informatics
  • "Towards integrated essential variables for sustainability" (2020), published in International Journal of Digital Earth

Frequent collaborators in Lehmann's work include Grégory Giuliani, Antoine Adde, Antoine Guisan, Nathan Külling, and Blaise Petitpierre.

Publications by Lehmann often appear in Environmental Science & Policy, SSRN Electronic Journal, Ecography, Land, and Scientific Data, indicating a presence in both interdisciplinary and specialized environmental science outlets.

Lehmann has contributed to book publications, including at least one title released by Springer Nature: "Recent Advances in Environmental Science from the Euro-Mediterranean and Surrounding Regions (2nd Edition)" (2021).
