Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Biodiversity

His main research concerns Environmental resource management, Biodiversity, Ecology, Conservation planning and Reserve design. He mostly deals with Protected area in his studies of Environmental resource management. His biological study deals with issues like Species diversity, which deal with fields such as Threatened species, Wildlife conservation and Species richness.

His study in the field of Nature reserve and Ecology also crosses realms of Phytogeography. His Conservation planning research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Conservation psychology and Ecosystem. Robert L. Pressey interconnects Plant species, Floodplain and Population size in the investigation of issues within Reserve design.

His most cited work include:

  • Systematic Conservation Planning (3547 citations)
  • Effectiveness of the global protected area network in representing species diversity (1060 citations)
  • Beyond opportunism: Key principles for systematic reserve selection (893 citations)

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

Robert L. Pressey mostly deals with Environmental resource management, Biodiversity, Ecology, Marine protected area and Conservation planning. Robert L. Pressey has included themes like Land use, Habitat and Reserve design in his Environmental resource management study. His study looks at the relationship between Biodiversity and fields such as Environmental planning, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

His work is connected to Climate change, Ecosystem, Pelagic zone, Species diversity and IUCN Red List, as a part of Ecology. His Marine protected area research focuses on subjects like Coral reef, which are linked to Reef. Robert L. Pressey carries out multidisciplinary research, doing studies in Conservation planning and Prioritization.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental resource management (61.43%)
  • Biodiversity (35.84%)
  • Ecology (24.91%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Environmental resource management (61.43%)
  • Environmental planning (14.33%)
  • Marine protected area (21.16%)

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

Robert L. Pressey mainly investigates Environmental resource management, Environmental planning, Marine protected area, Biodiversity and Ecology. His Environmental resource management research integrates issues from Coral reef, Great barrier reef, Threatened species, Habitat and Climate change. His Environmental planning research incorporates elements of Conservation planning and Stakeholder.

His study on Marine protected area also encompasses disciplines like

  • Marine reserve, which have a strong connection to Marine conservation, Reserve design and Spatial planning,
  • Fishing together with Community-based management,
  • Socioeconomic status together with Livelihood. Many of his research projects under Biodiversity are closely connected to Zoning with Zoning, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His Ecology research includes themes of Betweenness centrality, Impact evaluation and Metapopulation.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Projecting Global Biodiversity Indicators under Future Development Scenarios (125 citations)
  • Decision support frameworks and tools for conservation (80 citations)
  • Integrating multiple species connectivity and habitat quality into conservation planning for coral reefs (61 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Biodiversity

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Environmental resource management, Marine protected area, Biodiversity, Marine reserve and Habitat. His studies deal with areas such as Threatened species, Climate change, Marxan and Reserve design as well as Environmental resource management. His Marine protected area study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Quality, Coral reef, Database and Environmental protection.

Robert L. Pressey has researched Biodiversity in several fields, including Land use, Amazon rainforest, Natural resource economics, Residual and Biome. While the research belongs to areas of Marine reserve, Robert L. Pressey spends his time largely on the problem of Global warming, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Ecological network. Robert L. Pressey combines subjects such as Range and Fishery with his study of Habitat.
