Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Agriculture
  • Sustainability
  • Climate change

His primary scientific interests are in Livestock, Greenhouse gas, Environmental planning, Food security and Agricultural science. Livestock is closely attributed to Natural resource in his study. His Greenhouse gas research incorporates themes from Life-cycle assessment, Resource, Climate change and Environmental protection.

His Environmental planning study often links to related topics such as Water scarcity. In his research, Land use is intimately related to Fodder, which falls under the overarching field of Food security. The study incorporates disciplines such as Environmental degradation, Environmental impact assessment and Water resources in addition to Agriculture.

His most cited work include:

  • Livestock's long shadow: environmental issues and options. (2482 citations)
  • Tackling climate change through livestock : a global assessment of emissions and mitigation opportunities (763 citations)
  • Livestock's Long Shadow (557 citations)

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

Pierre J. Gerber mostly deals with Livestock, Greenhouse gas, Environmental resource management, Business and Sustainability. His work deals with themes such as Agricultural economics, Natural resource economics, Food security and Land use, which intersect with Livestock. His study in Greenhouse gas is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Agriculture, Climate change and Grazing.

His Agriculture research incorporates elements of Waste management, Nitrous oxide, Manure and Environmental protection. His Environmental resource management study which covers Environmental impact assessment that intersects with Biodiversity and Environmental degradation. Pierre J. Gerber combines subjects such as Global warming and Deforestation with his study of Sustainability.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Livestock (84.88%)
  • Greenhouse gas (58.14%)
  • Environmental resource management (36.05%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2019)?

  • Livestock (84.88%)
  • Supply chain (38.37%)
  • Greenhouse gas (58.14%)

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

Livestock, Supply chain, Greenhouse gas, Food security and Land use are his primary areas of study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Global change and Environmental protection. His research integrates issues of Agriculture, Natural resource economics, Environmental impact assessment and Environmental resource management in his study of Greenhouse gas.

His Agriculture research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Waste management, Environmental engineering, Nitrous oxide, Greenhouse effect and Methane. In his work, Livelihood, Fodder and Animal feed is strongly intertwined with Agricultural science, which is a subfield of Food security. He frequently studies issues relating to Sustainability and Land use.

Between 2016 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Livestock: On our plates or eating at our table? A new analysis of the feed/food debate (168 citations)
  • Livestock: On our plates or eating at our table? A new analysis of the feed/food debate (168 citations)
  • Defining a land boundary for sustainable livestock consumption (60 citations)

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

  • Agriculture
  • Sustainability
  • Biodiversity

His scientific interests lie mostly in Manure, Livestock, Land use, Sustainable development and Animal feed. His Manure research includes themes of Agriculture, Nitrous oxide, Greenhouse effect, Methane and Greenhouse gas. His Livestock study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Circular economy and Sustainable consumption, Sustainability.

His Land use study incorporates themes from Agricultural economics and Arable land. His research in Sustainable development intersects with topics in Manure management, Waste management and Environmental engineering. He interconnects Fodder, Food security and Agricultural science in the investigation of issues within Animal feed.
