Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Ecosystem

G. Philip Robertson mainly focuses on Ecology, Agronomy, Soil water, Ecosystem and Agriculture. His studies in Ecology integrate themes in fields like Denitrification, Variance, Nitrification and Nitrogen cycle. His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Soil organic matter, Carbon sequestration and Water content.

G. Philip Robertson frequently studies issues relating to Greenhouse gas and Soil water. He has included themes like Fertilizer, Greenhouse effect, Hectare and Renewable resource, Renewable energy in his Greenhouse gas study. He interconnects Agricultural engineering, Natural resource economics, Environmental resource management and Ecosystem services in the investigation of issues within Agriculture.

His most cited work include:

  • Climate-smart soils (644 citations)
  • Nitrogen in Agriculture: Balancing the Cost of an Essential Resource (605 citations)
  • Ecosystem services and agriculture: Cultivating agricultural ecosystems for diverse benefits (537 citations)

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

G. Philip Robertson spends much of his time researching Agronomy, Greenhouse gas, Bioenergy, Soil water and Soil carbon. His Agronomy research integrates issues from Conservation Reserve Program, Miscanthus, Eddy covariance and Panicum virgatum. His Greenhouse gas research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Fertilizer, Environmental protection, Nitrous oxide, Global warming and No-till farming.

The concepts of his Bioenergy study are interwoven with issues in Agroforestry and Crop yield. His Soil water study is associated with Ecology. His Soil carbon research includes themes of Soil organic matter and Cropping system.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (62.80%)
  • Greenhouse gas (38.16%)
  • Bioenergy (33.82%)

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

  • Agronomy (62.80%)
  • Perennial plant (25.60%)
  • Greenhouse gas (38.16%)

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

His main research concerns Agronomy, Perennial plant, Greenhouse gas, Bioenergy and Soil water. His work deals with themes such as Conservation Reserve Program, Miscanthus and Panicum virgatum, which intersect with Agronomy. His Perennial plant research focuses on Evapotranspiration and how it relates to Water use.

He combines subjects such as Soil carbon, Environmental engineering, Irrigation, Nitrous oxide and Global warming with his study of Greenhouse gas. The Bioenergy portion of his research involves studies in Biomass and Biofuel. His Soil water research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Nitrate and Tillage.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Nitrous oxide (N2O) flux responds exponentially to nitrogen fertilizer in irrigated wheat in the Yaqui Valley, Mexico (32 citations)
  • Long-Term Evidence Shows that Crop-Rotation Diversification Increases Agricultural Resilience to Adverse Growing Conditions in North America (28 citations)
  • Yield stability analysis reveals sources of large-scale nitrogen loss from the US Midwest (28 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Ecosystem

Agronomy, Greenhouse gas, Soil carbon, Agriculture and Panicum virgatum are his primary areas of study. The concepts of his Agronomy study are interwoven with issues in Soil water, Leaching, Miscanthus and Nitrate. The Greenhouse gas study combines topics in areas such as Crop yield and Irrigation.

His study brings together the fields of Bioenergy and Soil carbon. G. Philip Robertson incorporates Bioenergy and Cellulosic ethanol in his research. His Agriculture research incorporates elements of Fertilizer, Sustainability, Crop and Yield.
