Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Agriculture
  • Ecology
  • Soil water

His primary areas of investigation include Soil water, Soil science, Bulk density, Tillage and Soil structure. His studies link Agronomy with Soil water. Cássio Antonio Tormena studied Soil science and Total organic carbon that intersect with Hydric soil, Organic matter and Crop rotation.

His studies deal with areas such as Hydrology, Water content, Soil retrogression and degradation and Oxisol as well as Bulk density. His Tillage research includes elements of No-till farming and Porosity. His Soil structure research integrates issues from Soil organic matter and Soil quality.

His most cited work include:

  • Caracterização do intervalo hídrico ótimo de um latossolo roxo sob plantio direto (269 citations)
  • Soil physical quality of a Brazilian Oxisol under two tillage systems using the least limiting water range approach (123 citations)
  • Propriedades físicas de um Latossolo Vermelho distrófico cultivado e sob mata nativa (119 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Soil water, Agronomy, Soil science, Bulk density and Soil test. His Soil water research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Mineralogy and Water content. His studies in Agronomy integrate themes in fields like Soil organic matter, Soil carbon, Soil fertility and Oxisol.

Plough, Soil horizon and No-till farming is closely connected to Tillage in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Soil science. In Bulk density, Cássio Antonio Tormena works on issues like Compaction, which are connected to Topsoil. Cássio Antonio Tormena combines subjects such as Horticulture, Hydrology, Seedbed, Cation-exchange capacity and Water retention curve with his study of Soil test.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Soil water (49.43%)
  • Agronomy (36.93%)
  • Soil science (36.93%)

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

  • Soil water (49.43%)
  • Agronomy (36.93%)
  • Soil science (36.93%)

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

Cássio Antonio Tormena mainly focuses on Soil water, Agronomy, Soil science, Bulk density and Tillage. Many of his studies on Soil water apply to Water content as well. His Agronomy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Soil structure and Soil horizon.

His work on No-till farming and Hydraulic conductivity as part of general Soil science research is often related to Field, thus linking different fields of science. His research in Bulk density intersects with topics in Compaction and Sowing. His research links Soil test with Tillage.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Soil physical quality response to sugarcane expansion in Brazil (65 citations)
  • Soil Quality Indexing Strategies for Evaluating Sugarcane Expansion in Brazil. (51 citations)
  • Corn stover harvest and tillage impacts on near-surface soil physical quality (33 citations)

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

  • Agriculture
  • Ecology
  • Soil water

His main research concerns Agronomy, Soil water, Soil structure, Soil test and Soil quality. His Agronomy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Soil organic matter, Bulk density and Soil horizon. His studies in Bulk density integrate themes in fields like Crop and Root system.

His Soil test study introduces a deeper knowledge of Soil science. His Soil science study frequently links to other fields, such as Water content. His Soil quality research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Soil management, Oxisol, Vegetation and Land use.
