Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Sustainability

His primary scientific interests are in Land use, Environmental resource management, Natural resource economics, Land management and Sustainability. His Land use study combines topics in areas such as Agriculture, Agroforestry and Environmental planning. Karl-Heinz Erb interconnects Ecological footprint, Global hectare, Footprint, Scale and Productivity in the investigation of issues within Environmental resource management.

His Natural resource economics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Primary production, Empirical research and Bioenergy. His work carried out in the field of Sustainability brings together such families of science as Agrarian society, Biomass and Greenhouse gas. His Land use, land-use change and forestry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Agricultural land and Value.

His most cited work include:

  • Growth in global materials use, GDP and population during the 20th century (604 citations)
  • How much land based greenhouse gas mitigation can be achieved without compromising food security and environmental goals (338 citations)
  • Future urban land expansion and implications for global croplands (329 citations)

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

Karl-Heinz Erb spends much of his time researching Land use, Environmental resource management, Natural resource economics, Primary production and Sustainability. He usually deals with Land use and limits it to topics linked to Agriculture and Agricultural economics. The Environmental resource management study combines topics in areas such as Global change, Ecological footprint, Earth system science and Ecosystem services.

Karl-Heinz Erb has included themes like Climate change mitigation, Climate change, Greenhouse gas, Deforestation and Productivity in his Natural resource economics study. He combines subjects such as Biomass and Appropriation with his study of Primary production. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Biomass, Bioenergy is strongly linked to Agroforestry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Land use (42.02%)
  • Environmental resource management (27.13%)
  • Natural resource economics (27.13%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Land use (42.02%)
  • Land use, land-use change and forestry (14.89%)
  • Natural resource economics (27.13%)

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

Karl-Heinz Erb mainly investigates Land use, Land use, land-use change and forestry, Natural resource economics, Greenhouse gas and Biodiversity. His Land use research includes elements of Carbon sequestration, Agroforestry and Agriculture. He has researched Land use, land-use change and forestry in several fields, including Population pressure, Agricultural intensification and Industrial society.

His Natural resource economics research integrates issues from Climate change mitigation and Terrestrial ecosystem, Ecosystem. His study in Greenhouse gas is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Biomass, Climate change, Deforestation and Food systems. Global biodiversity, Empirical evidence and Frontier is closely connected to Sustainability in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Biodiversity.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • EXIOBASE 3: Developing a Time Series of Detailed Environmentally Extended Multi-Regional Input-Output Tables (194 citations)
  • Unexpectedly large impact of forest management and grazing on global vegetation biomass (172 citations)
  • Middle-range theories of land system change (119 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Sustainability

Karl-Heinz Erb mostly deals with Ecosystem services, Land use, Sustainability, Biodiversity and Land management. His Land use study typically links adjacent topics like Carbon sequestration. His studies deal with areas such as Tropical climate, Agroforestry and Land cover as well as Carbon sequestration.

The Sustainability study combines topics in areas such as Conceptual framework, Ecosystem and Natural capital. His work in Biodiversity addresses issues such as Natural resource economics, which are connected to fields such as Degrowth, Prosperity, Global biodiversity and Gross domestic product. The concepts of his Land management study are interwoven with issues in Agricultural land, Climate change, Land use, land-use change and forestry and Environmental resource management.
