Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Internal medicine
  • Bacteria

Compost, Organic matter, Agronomy, Environmental chemistry and Soil water are his primary areas of study. His Compost research includes themes of Sludge, Fungi imperfecti, Biological pest control and Biodegradable waste. José A. Pascual interconnects Phytotoxicity and Humic acid in the investigation of issues within Organic matter.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Melon, Calcareous, Cucurbitaceae and Rutaceae in addition to Agronomy. His Environmental chemistry study incorporates themes from Soil biology, Humus, Environmental engineering, Soil quality and Soil organic matter. His studies deal with areas such as Ralstonia, Microbiology, Amendment and Microbial population biology as well as Soil water.

His most cited work include:

  • Expanded adipose-derived stem cells for the treatment of complex perianal fistula: a phase II clinical trial. (576 citations)
  • The Kepler characterization of the variability among A- and F-type stars I. General overview (256 citations)
  • Soil microbial activity as a biomarker of degradation and remediation processes (209 citations)

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

José A. Pascual mainly focuses on Compost, Agronomy, Horticulture, Trichoderma harzianum and Botany. His work deals with themes such as Sludge, Organic matter, Vineyard, Peat and Pepper, which intersect with Compost. As part of one scientific family, José A. Pascual deals mainly with the area of Organic matter, narrowing it down to issues related to the Environmental chemistry, and often Soil organic matter, Leonardite, Mineralization and Environmental engineering.

His Agronomy study combines topics in areas such as Soil water, Soil quality and Amendment. His Trichoderma harzianum study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Glomus, Fusarium oxysporum and Trichoderma. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Jasmonic acid and Abscisic acid.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Compost (26.82%)
  • Agronomy (21.23%)
  • Horticulture (15.64%)

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

  • Compost (26.82%)
  • Horticulture (15.64%)
  • Pythium irregulare (3.91%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Compost, Horticulture, Pythium irregulare, Exoplanet and Crop yield. His Compost research is classified as research in Agronomy. His Agronomy research incorporates elements of Cropping, Term, Soil quality and Organic farming.

His Horticulture research includes themes of Nitrate and Crop. His Pythium irregulare study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Peat, Germination, Abiotic component and Pruning. His Crop yield research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Soil properties, Plant nutrition and Microbial population biology.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs High-resolution optical and near-infrared spectroscopy of 324 survey stars (134 citations)
  • The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs : First visual-channel radial-velocity measurements and orbital parameter updates of seven M-dwarf planetary systems (88 citations)
  • The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs: Two temperate Earth-mass planet candidates around Teegarden's Star (57 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Botany
  • Bacteria

His primary areas of study are Exoplanet, Astrophysics, Planet, Radial velocity and Stars. The concepts of his Astrophysics study are interwoven with issues in Christian ministry and Almeria. His Radial velocity research integrates issues from Rotation period, Terrestrial planet, Neptune and Eccentricity.

His Stars study is concerned with the larger field of Astronomy. José A. Pascual studies Compost which is a part of Agronomy. José A. Pascual has researched Compost in several fields, including Horticulture and Anaerobic digestion.
