Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

Climate change
Agriculture
Sustainability

Holger Hoff mainly focuses on Climate change, Hydrology, Irrigation, Environmental resource management and Earth system science. The Climate change study combines topics in areas such as Agriculture, Hydrology and Greenhouse gas. His Hydrology research includes themes of River ecosystem, Ecosystem, Freshwater ecosystem and Vegetation.

He has researched Irrigation in several fields, including Environmental flow, Water balance and Environmental protection. The concepts of his Environmental resource management study are interwoven with issues in Global change, Agricultural land, Operations management and Water resources. His Earth system science research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Current, Planetary boundaries and Land use.

His most cited work include:

Future water availability for global food production: The potential of green water for increasing resilience to global change (438 citations)
Future water availability for global food production: The potential of green water for increasing resilience to global change (438 citations)
Modeling Root Water Uptake in Hydrological and Climate Models (280 citations)

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

Holger Hoff mainly investigates Climate change, Environmental resource management, Sustainability, Nexus and Planetary boundaries. His Climate change study combines topics in areas such as Climatology, Irrigation, Agriculture, Agricultural productivity and Development economics. His study in Environmental resource management is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ecosystem services, Global change and Water resources.

His Integrated water resources management and Virtual water study in the realm of Water resources connects with subjects such as Food processing. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Land use and Earth system science. Holger Hoff interconnects Operations management and Water cycle in the investigation of issues within Earth system science.

He most often published in these fields:

Climate change (52.44%)
Environmental resource management (46.34%)
Sustainability (31.71%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

Earth system science (24.39%)
Nexus (25.61%)
Natural resource (15.85%)

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

His main research concerns Earth system science, Nexus, Natural resource, Environmental resource management and Planetary boundaries. His research in Earth system science intersects with topics in Environmental ethics, Anthropocene, Stewardship and Sustainability. His Sustainability study incorporates themes from Climate change and Biosphere.

His Climate change study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Primary production, Ecosystem, Forestry, Evapotranspiration and Grassland. His work deals with themes such as Watershed, Wetland and Water cycle, which intersect with Environmental resource management. He merges many fields, such as Planetary boundaries and Context, in his writings.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

Human impacts on planetary boundaries amplified by Earth system interactions (50 citations)
Human impacts on planetary boundaries amplified by Earth system interactions (50 citations)
A nexus approach for the MENA region-from concept to knowledge to action (20 citations)
