Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Agriculture

His primary areas of investigation include Bushmeat, Environmental protection, Biodiversity, Deforestation and Wildlife conservation. His studies in Bushmeat integrate themes in fields like Agroforestry and Environmental resource management. His Environmental protection research includes elements of Indigenous, Agricultural economics, Tropics, Hectare and Developing country.

His Biodiversity research incorporates elements of Protected area, Environmental change and Nature reserve. His research in Deforestation intersects with topics in Socioeconomics and Pulp and paper industry. His studies examine the connections between Wildlife conservation and genetics, as well as such issues in Logging, with regards to Duiker.

His most cited work include:

  • Averting biodiversity collapse in tropical forest protected areas (662 citations)
  • Catastrophic ape decline in western equatorial Africa (501 citations)
  • A Standard Lexicon for Biodiversity Conservation: Unified Classifications of Threats and Actions (399 citations)

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

David Wilkie mainly focuses on Wildlife, Environmental protection, Environmental resource management, Bushmeat and Agroforestry. His work deals with themes such as Agricultural economics, Climate change, Deforestation, Tropics and Socioeconomics, which intersect with Environmental protection. His work investigates the relationship between Deforestation and topics such as Biodiversity that intersect with problems in Protected area and Logging.

His work carried out in the field of Environmental resource management brings together such families of science as Resource management, Livelihood, Environmental planning, Natural resource economics and Sustainability. His studies deal with areas such as Livestock and Welfare economics as well as Bushmeat. The various areas that David Wilkie examines in his Agroforestry study include Biodiversity conservation and Agriculture.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Wildlife (22.61%)
  • Environmental protection (21.74%)
  • Environmental resource management (18.26%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Wildlife (22.61%)
  • Environmental resource management (18.26%)
  • Livelihood (10.43%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Wildlife, Environmental resource management, Livelihood, Environmental planning and Agroforestry. His study in Wildlife concentrates on Bushmeat and Wildlife conservation. His Bushmeat study incorporates themes from Carrying capacity, Informal sector and Agricultural economics.

David Wilkie interconnects Developing country, Sustainability and Resource management in the investigation of issues within Environmental resource management. His Agroforestry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biodiversity, Deforestation and Action plan. His Socioeconomics research focuses on Market access and how it connects with Amazon rainforest and Environmental protection.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The exceptional value of intact forest ecosystems (271 citations)
  • Get The Science Right When Paying For Nature's Services (158 citations)
  • Ten ways remote sensing can contribute to conservation (129 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Agriculture

His scientific interests lie mostly in Environmental resource management, Livelihood, Biodiversity, Ecosystem services and Poverty. His Environmental resource management research integrates issues from Developing country, Applied research, Resource management and Environmental planning. His Environmental planning research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Wildlife conservation and Local community.

His Livelihood study deals with the bigger picture of Agriculture. David Wilkie has included themes like Old-growth forest, Database, Bushmeat, Market data and Quantitative analysis in his Biodiversity study. His Poverty research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Political economy and IUCN protected area categories.
