Charles A.S. Hall is a Systems Ecologist who received his PhD under Howard T. Odum at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1970. He was professor over the past 45 years at Cornell University, the University of Montana, and the College of Environmental Science and Forestry of the State University of New York. He is now retired (but very active as Professor Emeritus) in Western Montana. Dr. Hall is the author or editor of 14 books and 300 scholarly articles and has been awarded the distinguished Hubbert-Simmons Prize for Energy Education and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Society of BioPhysical Economics. He is best known for his development of the concept of EROI, or energy return on investment, which is an examination of how organisms, including humans, invest energy into obtaining additional energy to improve biotic or social fitness, and also a new field, BioPhysical Economics, as a supplement or alternative to conventional economics. He has applied systems and EROI thinking to a broad series of biological, resource, and economic issues in more than 30 countries. His most recent books are Energy and the Wealth of Nations: An Introduction to BioPhysical Economics (with Kent Klitgaard), America's Most Sustainable Cities and Regions (with John Day), and Energy Return on Investment. A unifying Principle for Biology, Economics and Sustainability, all available from Springer. He is coeditor with Ugo Bardi and Gaël Giraud of the journal BioPhysical Economics and Resource Quality.

Charles AS Hall是一名系统生态学家，于1970年在北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校获得了霍华德·奥杜姆（Howard T. Odum）博士学位。在过去的45年中，他是康奈尔大学，蒙大拿大学和环境学院的教授。纽约州立大学的科学与林业。他现在在西蒙大拿州退休（但非常活跃，担任名誉教授）。Hall博士是14本书和300篇学术文章的作者或编辑，并获得了国际生物物理经济学学会颁发的杰出的哈伯特-西蒙斯能源教育奖和终身成就奖。他以EROI（能源投资回报率）概念的发展而闻名，这是对包括人类在内的生物体如何进行检查的研究。投资能量以获得额外的能量以改善生物或社会适应度，还投资了生物物理学经济学这一新领域，作为传统经济学的补充或替代。他已将系统和EROI思维应用于30多个国家/地区的一系列生物，资源和经济问题。他最近的书是《能源与国家财富：生物物理经济学概论》（肯特·克里特加德著），美国最具可持续性的城市和地区（约翰·戴伊著）以及能源投资回报率。生物学，经济学和可持续性的统一原则，可从施普林格（Springer）获得。他是《生物物理经济学与资源质量》杂志的Ugo Bardi和GaëlGiraud的编辑。
