2016 - Fellow of American Geophysical Union (AGU)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Agriculture

His primary areas of investigation include Hydrology, Ecology, Ecosystem, Water resources and Water content. His work deals with themes such as Soil water and Aeolian processes, which intersect with Hydrology. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Agroforestry and Ecology.

His Ecosystem research integrates issues from Biomass, Secondary forest and Growing season. He combines subjects such as Global population, Food security and Water supply with his study of Water resources. Paolo D'Odorico has included themes like Soil science, Soil carbon, Leaching, Atmospheric sciences and Vegetation in his Water content study.

His most cited work include:

  • Global desertification: Drivers and feedbacks (410 citations)
  • Global land and water grabbing (349 citations)
  • On the spatial and temporal links between vegetation, climate, and soil moisture (284 citations)

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

Ecology, Ecosystem, Hydrology, Vegetation and Soil water are his primary areas of study. His study in Woody plant, Shrubland, Competition, Grassland and Climate change is carried out as part of his Ecology studies. His work is dedicated to discovering how Shrubland, Shrub are connected with Agroforestry and other disciplines.

His Ecosystem research incorporates elements of Arid, Biomass and Nutrient. The various areas that Paolo D'Odorico examines in his Hydrology study include Aeolian processes and Ecohydrology. His research in Soil water focuses on subjects like Water content, which are connected to Soil science, Atmospheric sciences and Evapotranspiration.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (29.00%)
  • Ecosystem (19.49%)
  • Hydrology (15.31%)

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

  • Ecology (29.00%)
  • Agriculture (9.98%)
  • Natural resource economics (13.69%)

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

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Agriculture, Natural resource economics, Water resources and Water scarcity. His research integrates issues of Natural resource, Resource, Agricultural productivity and Food security in his study of Natural resource economics. In his research, Land management and Agricultural economics is intimately related to Agricultural land, which falls under the overarching field of Food security.

His Water resources research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Hydraulic fracturing, Water use, Water balance and Oil shale. His Water scarcity research incorporates themes from Climate change and Environmental engineering. His Ecosystem study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Shrub, Agronomy, Soil water, Transect and Arid.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Global Food‐Energy‐Water Nexus (161 citations)
  • The Tragedy of the Grabbed Commons: Coercion and Dispossession in the Global Land Rush (120 citations)
  • The Tragedy of the Grabbed Commons: Coercion and Dispossession in the Global Land Rush (120 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Ecosystem

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Water resources, Natural resource economics, Agriculture and Irrigation. His Ecology study frequently involves adjacent topics like Socioeconomics. His work carried out in the field of Water resources brings together such families of science as Water use, Oil shale, Unconventional oil and Water resource management.

The concepts of his Natural resource economics study are interwoven with issues in Virtual water, Water security and Food security. His Food security research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Agricultural land and Land use. He has researched Agriculture in several fields, including Water conservation and Farm water.
