Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Botany

Jan Frouz mostly deals with Ecology, Soil biology, Soil water, Agronomy and Ecological succession. As part of his studies on Ecology, Jan Frouz often connects relevant areas like Forestry. His Soil biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Soil carbon, Humus, Earthworm, Plant litter and Soil biodiversity.

His Soil water research includes themes of Carbon sequestration, Bioturbation and Botany. His Agronomy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Soil organic matter, Chronosequence and Topsoil. He combines subjects such as Organic matter and Soil fertility with his study of Soil organic matter.

His most cited work include:

  • Soil food web properties explain ecosystem services across European land use systems (345 citations)
  • Intensive agriculture reduces soil biodiversity across Europe (324 citations)
  • Interactions between soil development, vegetation and soil fauna during spontaneous succession in post mining sites (222 citations)

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

His main research concerns Ecology, Agronomy, Soil water, Soil biology and Botany. His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Salix caprea, Plant community, Primary succession and Plant litter. In Soil water, Jan Frouz works on issues like Organic matter, which are connected to Environmental chemistry.

His Soil biology course of study focuses on Topsoil and Restoration ecology and Soil chemistry. In his work, Biomass is strongly intertwined with Microcosm, which is a subfield of Botany. The Ecological succession study combines topics in areas such as Forestry and Vegetation, Understory.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (50.79%)
  • Agronomy (34.29%)
  • Soil water (31.11%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Soil water (31.11%)
  • Ecosystem (17.46%)
  • Ecology (50.79%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Soil water, Ecosystem, Ecology, Soil biology and Microcosm. His work deals with themes such as Organic matter, Plant growth, Agronomy and Environmental protection, which intersect with Soil water. His Agronomy study incorporates themes from Primary succession and Plant litter.

Jan Frouz performs multidisciplinary study in Ecology and Ant colony in his work. His work carried out in the field of Soil biology brings together such families of science as Soil structure, Fauna, Vegetation, Topsoil and Soil biodiversity. The various areas that Jan Frouz examines in his Microcosm study include Microorganism, Biomass and Botany, Festuca rubra.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Earthworms act as biochemical reactors to convert labile plant compounds into stabilized soil microbial necromass (14 citations)
  • Earthworms act as biochemical reactors to convert labile plant compounds into stabilized soil microbial necromass (14 citations)
  • Logging of rainforest and conversion to oil palm reduces bioturbator diversity but not levels of bioturbation (8 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Botany

His primary scientific interests are in Organic matter, Soil organic matter, Ecosystem, Environmental chemistry and Soil water. His Organic matter research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cutin, Total organic carbon, Biogeochemical cycle and Slash-and-burn. His studies in Soil organic matter integrate themes in fields like Peat and Carbon loss.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Agroforestry, Nutrient, Nutrient content and Tropical soils. His Environmental chemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Climate change mitigation, Sink, Carbon sequestration, Soil carbon sequestration and Carbon cycle. His work on Bulk soil as part of his general Soil water study is frequently connected to Ammonium nitrate, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.
