Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Agronomy

Germán A. Bollero spends much of his time researching Agronomy, Soil water, Cover crop, Growing season and Tillage. His research integrates issues of Soil organic matter, No-till farming and Miscanthus in his study of Agronomy. His work on Cation-exchange capacity as part of general Soil water study is frequently connected to Silt, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

Germán A. Bollero works mostly in the field of Cover crop, limiting it down to concerns involving Secale and, occasionally, Hydraulic conductivity and Bulk density. His Growing season study incorporates themes from Primary production, Dry weight and Crop. His study in Tillage is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Soil quality and Soil fertility.

His most cited work include:

  • Soil Quality Assessment of Tillage Impacts in Illinois (290 citations)
  • Relating apparent electrical conductivity to soil properties across the north-central USA (255 citations)
  • No-Till Corn/Soybean Systems Including Winter Cover Crops: Effects on Soil Properties (188 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Soil water, Biomass, Growing season and Miscanthus. His study in Cover crop, Weed control, Yield, Crop yield and Sowing is carried out as part of his studies in Agronomy. His study in the fields of Bulk density, Loam and Soil horizon under the domain of Soil water overlaps with other disciplines such as Silt.

In his study, Greenhouse gas is strongly linked to Biofuel, which falls under the umbrella field of Biomass. The Growing season study which covers Primary production that intersects with Dry weight and Crop. His Miscanthus giganteus course of study focuses on Perennial plant and Productivity.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (62.82%)
  • Soil water (16.67%)
  • Biomass (16.67%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Agronomy (62.82%)
  • Biomass (16.67%)
  • Crop yield (8.97%)

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

Germán A. Bollero mostly deals with Agronomy, Biomass, Crop yield, Miscanthus and Productivity. His study deals with a combination of Agronomy and Field. His Biomass study focuses on Bioenergy in particular.

His studies deal with areas such as Prime farmland and Land reclamation as well as Crop yield. The various areas that Germán A. Bollero examines in his Miscanthus study include Perennial plant, Tiller, Growing season and Sowing. His Productivity research includes elements of Panicum virgatum and Spatial variability.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Modeling spatial and dynamic variation in growth, yield, and yield stability of the bioenergy crops Miscanthus × giganteus and Panicum virgatum across the conterminous United States (89 citations)
  • Miscanthus × giganteus productivity: the effects of management in different environments (81 citations)
  • Miscanthus × giganteus productivity: the effects of management in different environments (81 citations)
