Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

Ecosystem
Erosion
Soil water

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Hydrology, Soil science, Soil water, Pedogenesis and Biogeochemical cycle. His Hydrology study combines topics in areas such as Geologic time scale, Soil series, Ecohydrology and Soil survey. His research in Soil science intersects with topics in Sediment transport, Gulch, Hydrological modelling, Hydrology and Drainage.

His study in Soil water is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Temperate forest, Environmental chemistry and Kaolinite. His work in Pedogenesis addresses issues such as Ultisol, which are connected to fields such as Soil horizon and Environmental gradient. In his study, Environmental change, Alkali soil, Ecosystem, Carbon cycle and Drainage density is strongly linked to Soil organic matter, which falls under the umbrella field of Biogeochemical cycle.

His most cited work include:

Beyond clay: Towards an improved set of variables for predicting soil organic matter content (159 citations)
Mineral assemblage and aggregates control carbon dynamics in a California conifer forest (142 citations)
Mineral control of organic carbon mineralization in a range of temperate conifer forest soils (133 citations)

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

Soil water, Hydrology, Weathering, Soil science and Soil carbon are his primary areas of study. The Soil water study combines topics in areas such as Environmental chemistry and Database. His Hydrology research incorporates elements of Biogeochemical cycle, Vegetation and Precipitation.

His Weathering study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Bedrock, Environmental gradient and Earth science. His Soil science study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Carbon cycle and Spatial variability. His Soil carbon research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Total organic carbon, Mineralization, Cycling and Temperate forest, Ecosystem.

He most often published in these fields:

Soil water (28.00%)
Hydrology (25.33%)
Weathering (19.33%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

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

His primary scientific interests are in Soil water, Soil carbon, Soil organic matter, Ecosystem and Environmental chemistry. The various areas that he examines in his Soil water study include Environmental gradient, Feldspar and Revegetation. His studies deal with areas such as Geospatial analysis, Database and Cycling as well as Soil carbon.

He combines subjects such as Alkali soil, Precipitation, Hydrology, Snow and Weathering with his study of Ecosystem. His Weathering research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Inceptisol, Entisol, Ultisol, Earth science and Vegetation. His research in Environmental chemistry intersects with topics in Mineral particles and Soil pH.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

Beyond clay: Towards an improved set of variables for predicting soil organic matter content (159 citations)
Improving understanding of soil organic matter dynamics by triangulating theories, measurements, and models (31 citations)
Which Way Do You Lean?: Using Slope Aspect Variations to Understand Critical Zone Processes and Feedbacks (29 citations)
