Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Law
  • Biodiversity

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Environmental resource management, Natural resource, Traditional knowledge and Biodiversity. Madhav Gadgil combines subjects such as Organism, Social conflict and Population growth with his study of Ecology. His work deals with themes such as Natural resource economics, Natural selection and Life history, which intersect with Organism.

His Environmental resource management research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Indigenous, Ecological systems theory, Resource management, Measurement of biodiversity and Ecological health. His Natural resource study incorporates themes from Forest management, Environmental degradation, Politics and Social group. His Biodiversity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Diversity and Ecosystem services.

His most cited work include:

  • Life Historical Consequences of Natural Selection (1388 citations)
  • Indigenous Knowledge for Biodiversity Conservation (761 citations)
  • The Concept of r- and K-Selection: Evidence from Wild Flowers and Some Theoretical Considerations (554 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Biodiversity, Environmental resource management, Agroforestry and Natural resource. As a part of the same scientific study, Madhav Gadgil usually deals with the Ecology, concentrating on Caste and frequently concerns with Endogamy. When carried out as part of a general Biodiversity research project, his work on Measurement of biodiversity is frequently linked to work in Business, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

The various areas that Madhav Gadgil examines in his Environmental resource management study include Citizen journalism and Resource management. The study incorporates disciplines such as Forestry and Deforestation in addition to Agroforestry. His research integrates issues of Traditional knowledge, Resource and Sustainability in his study of Natural resource.

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

  • Ecology
  • Law
  • Biodiversity

Madhav Gadgil mainly investigates Ecology, Biodiversity, Evergreen, Ecosystem and Relevance. Madhav Gadgil performs integrative study on Ecology and Human settlement. His Biodiversity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biomass, Species diversity and Coppicing.

His study in Evergreen is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both National park, Species richness, Woody plant and Riparian zone. His work deals with themes such as Climate change, No taxation without representation and Environmental resource management, which intersect with Ecosystem. You can notice a mix of various disciplines of study, such as Function and Zoology, in his Relevance studies.
