Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

His main research concerns Land use, Ecology, Land use, land-use change and forestry, Environmental resource management and Habitat. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Hazard, Agriculture, Forestry and Environmental protection. In general Ecology study, his work on Biodiversity, Spatial ecology and Woodland often relates to the realm of Network topology, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

He has included themes like Water quality, Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution and Ecosystem services in his Land use, land-use change and forestry study. The various areas that David M. Theobald examines in his Environmental resource management study include Land development, Urban sprawl, Greenhouse gas, Impervious surface and Geographic information system. His biological study deals with issues like Fragmentation, which deal with fields such as Range and Landscape connectivity.

His most cited work include:

  • Rural land-use trends in the conterminous United States, 1950-2000 (579 citations)
  • Landscape Patterns of Exurban Growth in the USA from 1980 to 2020 (372 citations)
  • Estimating the cumulative effects of development on wildlife habitat (335 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Environmental resource management, Land use, Habitat and Climate change. The Ecology study which covers Landscape connectivity that intersects with Cartography and Centrality. His Environmental resource management research incorporates elements of Natural resource, Biodiversity, Land-use planning, Ecosystem and Geographic information system.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Agriculture, Protected area and Environmental protection in addition to Land use. His studies deal with areas such as Range, Fishery and Ecosystem services as well as Habitat. David M. Theobald focuses mostly in the field of Land use, land-use change and forestry, narrowing it down to topics relating to Land development and, in certain cases, Urban sprawl.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (38.02%)
  • Environmental resource management (36.36%)
  • Land use (33.06%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Environmental resource management (36.36%)
  • Climate change (16.53%)
  • Ecology (38.02%)

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

David M. Theobald focuses on Environmental resource management, Climate change, Ecology, Biodiversity and Habitat. His Environmental resource management research includes themes of Conservation planning, Ecotone, Agricultural land and Spatial analysis. He combines subjects such as Ecosystem, Landform and Environmental planning with his study of Climate change.

His Biodiversity study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Wilderness and Land use. His primary area of study in Land use is in the field of Landscape change. His work carried out in the field of Habitat brings together such families of science as Urbanization, Fishery, Competition and Sympatric speciation.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Quantification of habitat fragmentation reveals extinction risk in terrestrial mammals. (129 citations)
  • Achieving climate connectivity in a fragmented landscape (116 citations)
  • Managing the middle: A shift in conservation priorities based on the global human modification gradient. (83 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Environmental resource management, Biodiversity, Climate change and Habitat. In the field of Ecology, his study on Introduced species, Species richness and Clean Water Act overlaps with subjects such as Robustness and Stressor. David M. Theobald has researched Environmental resource management in several fields, including Conservation planning, Wilderness, Land allocation, Land use and Ecosystem.

In general Land use, his work in Land-use planning is often linked to Action linking many areas of study. His study in Climate change is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Natural resource and Land use, land-use change and forestry. His Habitat research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Fragmentation and Spatial heterogeneity.
