Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Law
  • Epistemology

His primary areas of investigation include Environmental resource management, Biodiversity, Epistemology, Ecology and Philosophy of science. The concepts of his Environmental resource management study are interwoven with issues in Biodiversity conservation, Species richness, Spatial ecology and Environmental protection. His Biodiversity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Conservation biology, Environmental planning, Complementarity and Scale.

His Epistemology study combines topics in areas such as Zoology and Anthropology. Sahotra Sarkar combines subjects such as Multiple-criteria decision analysis, Selection and Goal programming with his study of Ecology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Environmental ethics, Analytic philosophy and Vienna Circle.

His most cited work include:

  • Biodiversity Conservation Planning Tools: Present Status and Challenges for the Future (426 citations)
  • Embracing complexity: organicism for the 21st century. (253 citations)
  • Systematic conservation planning. (226 citations)

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

Sahotra Sarkar mostly deals with Epistemology, Ecology, Biodiversity, Environmental resource management and Evolutionary biology. His is doing research in Philosophy of science, Philosophy of biology, Empiricism, Metaphysics and Reductionism, both of which are found in Epistemology. His work in the fields of Ecology, such as Habitat, Ecological niche and Endangered species, overlaps with other areas such as Vector.

His Biodiversity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Environmental ethics, Conservation biology, Normative and Environmental planning. In his research, Aquatic biodiversity research is intimately related to Measurement of biodiversity, which falls under the overarching field of Environmental resource management. Evolutionary biology connects with themes related to Classical genetics in his study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Epistemology (17.45%)
  • Ecology (18.30%)
  • Biodiversity (16.60%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Epistemology (17.45%)
  • Dengue fever (4.26%)
  • Virology (2.98%)

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

Sahotra Sarkar spends much of his time researching Epistemology, Dengue fever, Virology, Biodiversity and Habitat. Sahotra Sarkar interconnects Natural selection and Control in the investigation of issues within Epistemology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Global health and Aedes albopictus in addition to Virology.

His Biodiversity study incorporates themes from Environmental ethics, Land reclamation, Environmental resource management and Normative. His Environmental resource management study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Animal Welfare, Natural resource economics and Medical law. The concepts of his Habitat study are interwoven with issues in Overwintering, Monarch butterfly and Extinction.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Global risk of Zika virus depends critically on vector status of Aedes albopictus. (57 citations)
  • A Systematic Review of the Comparative Epidemiology of Avian and Human Influenza A H5N1 and H7N9 - Lessons and Unanswered Questions. (51 citations)
  • Projected future distributions of vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi in North America under climate change scenarios. (45 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Law
  • Epistemology

His primary scientific interests are in Vector, Aedes albopictus, Virology, Ecology and Zika virus. His research integrates issues of Aedes and Dengue fever in his study of Aedes albopictus. His work on Dengue fever is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Environmental planning.

His research investigates the connection between Virology and topics such as Global health that intersect with problems in MEDLINE, Environmental health, Resistance and Air traffic control. His Ecology study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Extinction. Sahotra Sarkar combines subjects such as Chikungunya and Pandemic with his study of Socioeconomics.
