Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • China
  • Microeconomics

Ussif Rashid Sumaila mainly focuses on Environmental resource management, Fishing, Fisheries management, Natural resource economics and Subsidy. His Environmental resource management research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Game theoretic, Management science, Marine protected area, Climate change and Ecosystem. His studies in Fishing integrate themes in fields like Strategic interaction, Development economics and Sustainability.

His Fisheries management research incorporates elements of Marine conservation, Ecosystem-based management, Marine reserve and Ecosystem services. His Natural resource economics research includes elements of Cost–benefit analysis, Marine ecosystem and Greenhouse gas. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Payment, Fishery, Resource management and Overfishing.

His most cited work include:

  • Scenarios for global biodiversity in the 21st Century (1215 citations)
  • Contrasting futures for ocean and society from different anthropogenic CO2 emissions scenarios (645 citations)
  • The global contribution of forage fish to marine fisheries and ecosystems (212 citations)

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

Ussif Rashid Sumaila focuses on Fishery, Fishing, Environmental resource management, Fisheries management and Sustainability. The study incorporates disciplines such as Resource and Subsidy in addition to Fishery. Ussif Rashid Sumaila focuses mostly in the field of Fishing, narrowing it down to matters related to Natural resource economics and, in some cases, Cost–benefit analysis and Resource management.

Ussif Rashid Sumaila interconnects Marine ecosystem, Ecosystem, Ecosystem services, Marine protected area and Climate change in the investigation of issues within Environmental resource management. His Fisheries management study combines topics in areas such as Stock assessment, Overexploitation and Environmental planning. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Sustainability, Livelihood and Economic growth is strongly linked to Marine conservation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Fishery (48.80%)
  • Fishing (38.55%)
  • Environmental resource management (22.29%)

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

  • Fishery (48.80%)
  • Fishing (38.55%)
  • Sustainability (19.28%)

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

Ussif Rashid Sumaila spends much of his time researching Fishery, Fishing, Sustainability, Fish stock and Food security. His study on Fishery is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Subsidy. Ussif Rashid Sumaila has included themes like Economic impact analysis, Environmental planning, Marine ecosystem, International waters and Natural resource economics in his Fishing study.

His study explores the link between Sustainability and topics such as Climate change that cross with problems in Biodiversity, Timeline and Livelihood. The various areas that Ussif Rashid Sumaila examines in his Fish stock study include Incentive, Fishing industry and Exclusive economic zone. The Food security study combines topics in areas such as Developing country, Poverty and Resource.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Marine reserves can mitigate and promote adaptation to climate change. (204 citations)
  • Opportunity for marine fisheries reform in China (57 citations)
  • Adaptation strategies to climate change in marine systems. (47 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • China
  • Microeconomics

Fishing, Marine ecosystem, Fisheries law, Environmental resource management and Climate change are his primary areas of study. His study in Fishing is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sustainability and Environmental planning. His research on Fishery and Fisheries management is centered around Fisheries law.

Many of his research projects under Fishery are closely connected to Scale with Scale, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. As a part of the same scientific family, Ussif Rashid Sumaila mostly works in the field of Environmental resource management, focusing on Greenhouse gas and, on occasion, Natural resource economics. The concepts of his Climate change study are interwoven with issues in Marine reserve and Cumulative effects.
