Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Statistics
  • Climate change
  • Social science

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Climate change, Natural resource economics, Development economics, Economic inequality and Mean radiant temperature. His Climate change research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Environmental protection, Agriculture, La Niña, Productivity and Empirical research. His work on Agricultural productivity as part of general Agriculture study is frequently linked to Economic productivity, Economic production and Economic cost, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His research in Productivity intersects with topics in Tropical climate and Economic model. The Natural resource economics study combines topics in areas such as Multidisciplinary approach, Ecological forecasting and Environmental resource management. Solomon Hsiang interconnects Scale and Basic reproduction number in the investigation of issues within Development economics.

His most cited work include:

  • Quantifying the influence of climate on human conflict (793 citations)
  • Quantifying the influence of climate on human conflict (793 citations)
  • Global non-linear effect of temperature on economic production (567 citations)

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

Solomon Hsiang spends much of his time researching Climate change, Econometrics, Natural resource economics, Damages and Development economics. The concepts of his Climate change study are interwoven with issues in Cost–benefit analysis, Demographic economics, Agriculture, Developing country and Productivity. His work carried out in the field of Productivity brings together such families of science as Agricultural productivity, Natural experiment and Statistical dispersion.

His Econometrics research integrates issues from Statistical model and Short run. His Natural resource economics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Multidisciplinary approach, Environmental resource management and Mean radiant temperature. His work in Development economics addresses subjects such as Scale, which are connected to disciplines such as Basic reproduction number.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climate change (66.46%)
  • Econometrics (21.12%)
  • Natural resource economics (18.01%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Pandemic (13.04%)
  • Order (9.94%)
  • Climate change (66.46%)

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

Solomon Hsiang mainly investigates Pandemic, Order, Climate change, Artificial intelligence and Scale. His work in Pandemic incorporates the disciplines of Scale, Development economics, Recession, Earth system science and Multidisciplinary approach. His Scale research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Econometric methods and Basic reproduction number.

Solomon Hsiang conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Order and Satellite imagery through his works. He connects Climate change with Adaptation in his research. In general Artificial intelligence study, his work on Ground truth and Image often relates to the realm of Limit, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The effect of large-scale anti-contagion policies on the COVID-19 pandemic. (390 citations)
  • The effect of large-scale anti-contagion policies on the COVID-19 pandemic. (390 citations)
  • The effect of large-scale anti-contagion policies on the COVID-19 pandemic. (390 citations)

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

  • Statistics
  • Climate change
  • Social science

His primary areas of investigation include Pandemic, Development economics, Order, Scale and Basic reproduction number. His work on Pandemic is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. His Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 research spans across into subjects like Environmental health, Scale and 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak.

His Basic reproduction number research incorporates a variety of disciplines, including Social isolation and Psychological intervention. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Multidisciplinary approach, Natural resource economics and Earth system science. Solomon Hsiang combines subjects such as Poverty and Investment with his study of Earth system science.
