Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Agriculture
  • Ecology
  • Fertilizer

Holger Kirchmann mainly investigates Agronomy, Manure, Soil organic matter, Soil water and Mineralization. His Agronomy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sludge, Sewage, Environmental planning, Nitrogen and Agriculture. Holger Kirchmann combines subjects such as Animal science and Ammonia volatilization from urea with his study of Manure.

His Soil organic matter research integrates issues from Hydrology, Organic matter, Humus and Green manure. Particularly relevant to Leaching is his body of work in Soil water. His Mineralization research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Environmental chemistry, Straw, Nitrogen cycle and Incubation.

His most cited work include:

  • Microbial Population Structures in Soil Particle Size Fractions of a Long-Term Fertilizer Field Experiment (520 citations)
  • Roots contribute more to refractory soil organic matter than above-ground crop residues, as revealed by a long-term field experiment (285 citations)
  • SE—Structures and Environment (242 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Agronomy, Soil water, Manure, Soil organic matter and Agriculture. His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Soil carbon, Leaching, Soil fertility, Topsoil and Nutrient. His Subsoil, Soil texture and Soil horizon study in the realm of Soil water interacts with subjects such as Silt.

His Manure research includes themes of Organic fertilizer, Incubation, Ammonia volatilization from urea, Nitrogen cycle and Green manure. His research in Soil organic matter intersects with topics in Environmental chemistry, Organic matter, Humus and Crop rotation. The various areas that Holger Kirchmann examines in his Agriculture study include Agroforestry and Sustainability.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (45.14%)
  • Soil water (33.33%)
  • Manure (22.92%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Agronomy (45.14%)
  • Soil water (33.33%)
  • Topsoil (13.19%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Soil water, Topsoil, Soil organic matter and Leaching. His Agronomy research includes elements of Water quality, Nutrient and Soil fertility. His Soil water study incorporates themes from Environmental chemistry, Agriculture, Sludge and Manure.

Holger Kirchmann has included themes like Selenium and Cadmium in his Manure study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Loam and Subsoil in addition to Topsoil. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Soil carbon, Compost and Arable land.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • From agricultural use of sewage sludge to nutrient extraction: A soil science outlook. (83 citations)
  • Turnover and losses of phosphorus in Swedish agricultural soils: long-term changes, leaching trends, and mitigation measures. (55 citations)
  • Changes in organic carbon in topsoil and subsoil and microbial community composition caused by repeated additions of organic amendments and N fertilisation in a long-term field experiment in Sweden (48 citations)

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

  • Agriculture
  • Ecology
  • Fertilizer

His primary areas of study are Agronomy, Soil water, Topsoil, Crop yield and Nutrient. His Agronomy research incorporates elements of Sludge, Soil carbon, Soil fertility, Micronutrient and Agricultural engineering. He interconnects Soil organic matter and Crop residue in the investigation of issues within Soil carbon.

His work deals with themes such as Humus, Compost, Mineralization and Green manure, which intersect with Soil organic matter. His studies deal with areas such as Agriculture, Selenium and Manure as well as Soil water. He studied Topsoil and Subsoil that intersect with Environmental chemistry and Lysimeter.
