Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Franz Hölker mainly investigates Ecology, Light pollution, Skyglow, Artificial light and Ecological light pollution. His work on Ecosystem is typically connected to Environmental pollution as part of general Ecology study, connecting several disciplines of science. The Light pollution study combines topics in areas such as Rebound effect, Meteorology, Greenhouse gas, Remote sensing and Chronobiology.

The concepts of his Skyglow study are interwoven with issues in Sky Quality Meter, Overcast, Atmospheric sciences and Radiance. His research investigates the connection between Ecological light pollution and topics such as Efficient energy use that intersect with issues in Optics, Environmental resource management and Sustainability. His research in Freshwater fish focuses on subjects like Temperate climate, which are connected to Range and Climate change.

His most cited work include:

  • Light pollution as a biodiversity threat. (380 citations)
  • The Dark Side of Light: A Transdisciplinary Research Agenda for Light Pollution Policy (352 citations)
  • Artificially lit surface of Earth at night increasing in radiance and extent (274 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Light pollution, Skyglow, Rutilus and Zoology. His Ecology study incorporates themes from Biological dispersal and Perch. Franz Hölker is involved in the study of Light pollution that focuses on Ecological light pollution in particular.

His studies deal with areas such as Sky Quality Meter, Atmospheric sciences and Radiance as well as Skyglow. His research in Rutilus intersects with topics in Foraging, Carp, Metabolic rate and Animal science. His Zoology research incorporates elements of Melatonin, Coregonus albula, Period and Freshwater fish.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (55.47%)
  • Light pollution (33.59%)
  • Skyglow (17.19%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Light pollution (33.59%)
  • Ecology (55.47%)
  • Nocturnal (10.94%)

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

His primary areas of study are Light pollution, Ecology, Nocturnal, Brightness and Photometry. His Light pollution study deals with Meteorology intersecting with Air pollution. His Ecology study frequently links to related topics such as Biological dispersal.

His studies in Nocturnal integrate themes in fields like Zoology, Darkness, Reproduction, Light intensity and Perch. His Zoology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Rutilus, Timeless and Period. His Skyglow research includes elements of Zenith and Atmospheric sciences.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Artificially lit surface of Earth at night increasing in radiance and extent (274 citations)
  • Artificial Light at Night Affects Organism Flux across Ecosystem Boundaries and Drives Community Structure in the Recipient Ecosystem (59 citations)
  • Insect declines and agroecosystems: does light pollution matter? (51 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

His main research concerns Light pollution, Ecology, Remote sensing, Skyglow and Predation. His Light pollution research includes themes of Brightness, Sky brightness, Meteorology and Sky. His research investigates the connection with Brightness and areas like Overcast which intersect with concerns in Nocturnal.

His Biological dispersal research extends to the thematically linked field of Ecology. His research integrates issues of Luminance, Ecological light pollution and Illuminance in his study of Remote sensing. Community structure is closely connected to Riparian zone in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Predation.
