Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Ecosystem

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Biodiversity, Deforestation, Environmental resource management and Living Planet Index. Her study in the field of Amazon rainforest, Amazon basin and Tropics also crosses realms of Tropical cyclone. Specifically, her work in Biodiversity is concerned with the study of Convention on Biological Diversity.

Her Deforestation research integrates issues from Ecosystem services, Climate change, Land use and Environmental protection. Her work carried out in the field of Environmental resource management brings together such families of science as Habitat destruction, Natural resource economics and Positive economics. Her Living Planet Index study combines topics in areas such as Overexploitation and Sustainable forest management.

Her most cited work include:

  • Global Biodiversity: Indicators of Recent Declines (2945 citations)
  • Global Biodiversity: Indicators of Recent Declines (2945 citations)
  • Tracking the ecological overshoot of the human economy (883 citations)

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

Valerie Kapos mainly focuses on Biodiversity, Environmental resource management, Ecology, Agroforestry and Deforestation. Her Biodiversity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Climate change, Ecosystem and Environmental planning. Her research in Environmental resource management intersects with topics in Risk analysis and Habitat.

In Ecology, Valerie Kapos works on issues like Forestry, which are connected to Floristics and IUCN Red List. Her work in the fields of Agroforestry, such as Sustainable forest management, intersects with other areas such as Context. Her work deals with themes such as Intact forest landscape, Forest ecology, Greenhouse gas and Ecosystem services, which intersect with Deforestation.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Biodiversity (53.66%)
  • Environmental resource management (39.84%)
  • Ecology (33.33%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Biodiversity (53.66%)
  • Environmental resource management (39.84%)
  • Climate change (13.82%)

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

Valerie Kapos mainly investigates Biodiversity, Environmental resource management, Climate change, Ecosystem and Climate change mitigation. Her Biodiversity research incorporates themes from Conservation status and Spatial planning. The various areas that Valerie Kapos examines in her Environmental resource management study include Climate change adaptation, Terrestrial ecosystem and Ecosystem services.

Her research integrates issues of Habitat destruction, Protected area, Species richness and Environmental protection in her study of Climate change. Her studies in Climate change mitigation integrate themes in fields like Introduced species, Agricultural productivity, Land use, land-use change and forestry and Environmental planning. Valerie Kapos integrates many fields, such as Global biodiversity and Context, in her works.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Global priority areas for ecosystem restoration (47 citations)
  • Present and future biodiversity risks from fossil fuel exploitation (31 citations)
  • Future environmental and agricultural impacts of Brazil’s Forest Code (22 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Biodiversity
  • Ecosystem

Her main research concerns Biodiversity, Climate change, Environmental protection, Spatial planning and Sustainable development. Her Biodiversity study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Environmental planning. Her Climate change research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Habitat destruction, Protected area, Species richness and Endemism.

Her studies deal with areas such as Fossil fuel, Carbon storage and Carbon stock as well as Environmental protection. The study incorporates disciplines such as Climate change mitigation, Restoration ecology, Co benefits and Biome in addition to Spatial planning. Valerie Kapos undertakes multidisciplinary studies into Sustainable development and Trade offs in her work.
