Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Agriculture

A. Glyn Bengough mainly investigates Soil water, Agronomy, Root hair, Ecology and Agriculture. His work in the fields of Soil water, such as Bulk soil, intersects with other areas such as Transpiration. In his work, Soil biology and Water content is strongly intertwined with Soil structure, which is a subfield of Agronomy.

His Ecology research includes themes of Biophysics, Root system and Scaling. His Agriculture research incorporates elements of Greenhouse and Sustainability. The various areas that A. Glyn Bengough examines in his Sustainability study include Agroforestry and Biogeochemical cycle.

His most cited work include:

  • Rhizosphere: biophysics, biogeochemistry and ecological relevance (670 citations)
  • Root elongation, water stress, and mechanical impedance: a review of limiting stresses and beneficial root tip traits (519 citations)
  • Root elongation, water stress, and mechanical impedance: a review of limiting stresses and beneficial root tip traits (519 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Soil water, Agronomy, Root system, Soil science and Botany. In general Soil water study, his work on Soil structure and Soil horizon often relates to the realm of Mechanical impedance, thereby connecting several areas of interest. He combines subjects such as Soil biology and Soil test with his study of Soil structure.

His research on Agronomy also deals with topics like

  • Mucilage which is related to area like Soil texture,
  • Loam that intertwine with fields like Water potential. His Root system research integrates issues from Root length, Biological system and Bulk soil. His multidisciplinary approach integrates Botany and Elongation in his work.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Soil water (62.00%)
  • Agronomy (49.00%)
  • Root system (42.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Root (26.00%)
  • Root system (42.00%)
  • Root (18.00%)

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

A. Glyn Bengough mainly focuses on Root, Root system, Root, Reinforcement and Deformation. His studies in Root system integrate themes in fields like Root length, Soil compaction, Displacement and Soil horizon. His study looks at the relationship between Displacement and topics such as Soil science, which overlap with Water content.

His research in Water content intersects with topics in Aerenchyma, Penetrometer, Horticulture and Field conditions. His Reinforcement study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Direct shear test, Geotechnical engineering, Boundary value problem and Slippage. Specifically, his work in Geotechnical engineering is concerned with the study of Slope stability.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Root traits as drivers of plant and ecosystem functioning: current understanding, pitfalls and future research needs (11 citations)
  • Root traits as drivers of plant and ecosystem functioning: current understanding, pitfalls and future research needs (11 citations)
  • Root anatomical traits contribute to deeper rooting of maize under compacted field conditions. (8 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Agriculture

A. Glyn Bengough focuses on Terrestrial ecosystem, Ecology, Biosphere, Research needs and Ecology. His study on Terrestrial ecosystem is intertwined with other disciplines of science such as Root and Trait.
