Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Ecosystem

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Soil salinity, Soil water, Agroforestry and Agronomy. His work in Ecology addresses issues such as Phenanthrene, which are connected to fields such as Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, Tropics, Botany and Total organic carbon. His Soil salinity research incorporates themes from Surface irrigation, Soil fertility and Soil retrogression and degradation.

Christopher Martius has included themes like Biomass, Monoculture and Plant litter in his Agroforestry study. His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Denitrification, Nitrous oxide and Nitrification. His Soil science research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Salinity and Drainage.

His most cited work include:

  • On the dynamics, floristic subdivision and geographical distribution of varzea forests in Central Amazonia (207 citations)
  • Connecting Earth observation to high-throughput biodiversity data (105 citations)
  • Atmospheric versus biological sources of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in a tropical rain forest environment (104 citations)

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

Christopher Martius focuses on Agroforestry, Agronomy, Ecology, Land use and Greenhouse gas. His study in Agroforestry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Soil biology, Deforestation and Woodland. Christopher Martius has researched Agronomy in several fields, including Soil water and Soil fertility.

He studied Soil fertility and Soil salinity that intersect with Soil retrogression and degradation and Surface irrigation. His work on Ecology is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Phenanthrene. In his study, Agriculture is strongly linked to Environmental planning, which falls under the umbrella field of Land use.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agroforestry (17.96%)
  • Agronomy (17.48%)
  • Ecology (15.53%)

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

  • Land use (12.14%)
  • Agroforestry (17.96%)
  • Greenhouse gas (10.19%)

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

Land use, Agroforestry, Greenhouse gas, Natural resource economics and Ecosystem services are his primary areas of study. The various areas that he examines in his Land use study include Environmental economics and Environmental planning. His Agroforestry study combines topics in areas such as Woodland, Allometry and Crop rotation.

His Ecosystem services study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Payment and Environmental resource management. Peat is a subfield of Ecology that Christopher Martius studies. His Secondary forest research integrates issues from Soil carbon and Soil water.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Connecting Earth observation to high-throughput biodiversity data (105 citations)
  • Estimation of above-ground biomass of large tropical trees with Terrestrial LiDAR (82 citations)
  • Learning from REDD+: a response to Fletcher et al. (46 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Ecosystem

Christopher Martius mainly focuses on Greenhouse gas, Lidar, Agroforestry, Land use and Soil carbon. His research integrates issues of Peat, Rainforest, Tropics and Deforestation in his study of Greenhouse gas. His work deals with themes such as Pantropical and Biomass, which intersect with Lidar.

His studies deal with areas such as Crop rotation, Crop, Irrigation, Cropping and Agricultural land as well as Agroforestry. Soil carbon is the subject of his research, which falls under Soil water. While the research belongs to areas of Ecology, Christopher Martius spends his time largely on the problem of Law and economics, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Ecosystem services.
