Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Climate change
  • Archaeology

His primary scientific interests are in Climate change, Sea level, Human settlement, Physical geography and Oceanography. His Climate change research includes elements of Vulnerability, Livelihood, Environmental resource management and Environmental planning. He has included themes like Reef, Sea level rise and Meteorology in his Sea level study.

His Human settlement study deals with the bigger picture of Archaeology. His Physical geography study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Global warming, Quaternary, Shore and Holocene. His work on Sea level change is typically connected to Flooding and Technical report as part of general Oceanography study, connecting several disciplines of science.

His most cited work include:

  • Sea Level Change (806 citations)
  • Environmental catastrophe in the Pacific Islands around A.D. 1300 (125 citations)
  • Responding to the challenges of climate change in the Pacific Islands: management and technological imperatives (123 citations)

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

His main research concerns Climate change, Archaeology, Oceanography, Sea level and Human settlement. The concepts of his Climate change study are interwoven with issues in Livelihood, Environmental planning, Environmental resource management, Physical geography and Vulnerability. Patrick D. Nunn usually deals with Environmental planning and limits it to topics linked to Sustainability and Environmental studies.

Oceanography is closely attributed to Quaternary in his study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Paleontology and Shore. Patrick D. Nunn has researched Human settlement in several fields, including Cave and Atoll.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climate change (28.70%)
  • Archaeology (24.78%)
  • Oceanography (24.78%)

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

  • Climate change (28.70%)
  • Environmental planning (10.87%)
  • Livelihood (5.65%)

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

Climate change, Environmental planning, Livelihood, Vulnerability and Sustainability are his primary areas of study. His Climate change research incorporates elements of Developing country, Physical geography and Environmental resource management. In Environmental planning, he works on issues like Seawall, which are connected to Livelihood security.

His Vulnerability research integrates issues from Small Island Developing States and Food security. His research in Sustainability intersects with topics in Environmental studies, Indigenous and Climate Finance. In his research on the topic of Sea level rise, Sea level is strongly related with Ice age.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Environmental Sustainability: A Case of Policy Implementation Failure? (74 citations)
  • Understanding climate-human interactions in Small Island Developing States (SIDS): Implications for future livelihood sustainability (38 citations)
  • An assessment of community-based adaptation initiatives in the Pacific Islands (32 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Climate change
  • Archaeology

Patrick D. Nunn mostly deals with Climate change, Sustainability, Small Island Developing States, Environmental resource management and Vulnerability. His work deals with themes such as Coastal erosion, Psychological resilience, Livelihood and Environmental planning, which intersect with Climate change. His Livelihood research includes themes of Human settlement, Food security and Storm surge.

His research on Environmental planning often connects related areas such as Environmental change. As a part of the same scientific study, Patrick D. Nunn usually deals with the Sustainability, concentrating on Environmental studies and frequently concerns with Adaptive capacity, Climate Finance and International development. Patrick D. Nunn interconnects Effects of global warming and Socioeconomics in the investigation of issues within Small Island Developing States.
