Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • IUCN Red List

Luigi Boitani mostly deals with Ecology, Biodiversity, Environmental resource management, Habitat and Canis. Many of his studies on Ecology involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Biological dispersal. The various areas that he examines in his Biodiversity study include Land use, land-use change and forestry, Species diversity, Threatened species and Environmental protection.

His Protected area study, which is part of a larger body of work in Environmental resource management, is frequently linked to Market fragmentation, Work, Blueprint and International level, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Habitat fragmentation and Habitat destruction study in the realm of Habitat interacts with subjects such as Conceptual framework and Structural composition. In his work, Genetic diversity and Captive breeding is strongly intertwined with Italian wolf, which is a subfield of Canis.

His most cited work include:

  • Effectiveness of the global protected area network in representing species diversity (1060 citations)
  • The status of the world's land and marine mammals: diversity, threat, and knowledge (1045 citations)
  • The Impact of Conservation on the Status of the World’s Vertebrates (972 citations)

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

Luigi Boitani mainly focuses on Ecology, Habitat, Biodiversity, Environmental resource management and Predation. Ecology is often connected to Biological dispersal in his work. As part of his studies on Habitat, Luigi Boitani frequently links adjacent subjects like Range.

His Biodiversity course of study focuses on IUCN Red List and Red List Index. His Environmental resource management research is mostly focused on the topic Protected area. His research brings together the fields of Livestock and Predation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (58.40%)
  • Habitat (20.99%)
  • Biodiversity (19.08%)

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

  • Ecology (58.40%)
  • Carnivore (7.63%)
  • Predation (8.78%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Carnivore, Predation, Habitat and Livestock. He connects Ecology with Systemic lupus erythematosus in his study. His Carnivore study also includes

  • Wildlife management, which have a strong connection to Adaptive management,
  • Apex predator which intersects with area such as Computational biology.

His Predation research integrates issues from National park and Herd. His Habitat research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Forest management, Amphibian, Temperate rainforest and Salamandrina. His Biodiversity research integrates issues from Decision theory and Threatened species.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Quantification of habitat fragmentation reveals extinction risk in terrestrial mammals. (129 citations)
  • Don't forget to look down - collaborative approaches to predator conservation (85 citations)
  • Survival and divergence in a small group: The extraordinary genomic history of the endangered Apennine brown bear stragglers. (82 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • IUCN Red List

Luigi Boitani spends much of his time researching Ursus, Demography, Small population size, Ecology and Environmental resource management. His Ursus study incorporates themes from Algorithm, Biological dispersal, Landscape connectivity and Decile. His Demography study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sampling, Population growth and Key.

His Small population size research incorporates elements of Range, Population size and Inbreeding depression. Ecology is a component of his Habitat fragmentation, Extinction debt, Latent extinction risk, Fragmentation and Threatened species studies. Luigi Boitani combines subjects such as Legitimacy, Carnivore, Legislation and Hofstede's cultural dimensions theory with his study of Environmental resource management.
