José M. Murillo

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Ecology
• Agriculture
• Botany

His primary scientific interests are in Soil water, Agronomy, Soil organic matter, Tillage and Environmental engineering. His work in the fields of Soil water, such as Soil contamination, intersects with other areas such as Trace element. His Agronomy study typically links adjacent topics like Nutrient.

His Soil organic matter study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Organic matter, Soil fertility and Soil salinity. His Tillage study incorporates themes from Crop rotation and Soil quality. His studies in Environmental engineering integrate themes in fields like Soil test and Phytoremediation.

His most cited work include:

• Heavy metal pollution of soils affected by the Guadiamar toxic flood. (268 citations)
• Trace element and nutrient accumulation in sunflower plants two years after the Aznalcóllar mine spill. (161 citations)
• White poplar (Populus alba) as a biomonitor of trace elements in contaminated riparian forests (159 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Soil water, Tillage, Soil contamination and Soil quality. His Agronomy study incorporates themes from Soil organic matter, Organic matter and Nutrient. His Soil water research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Environmental engineering, Horticulture, Environmental remediation and Environmental chemistry, Bioaccumulation.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Soil carbon, Plough, Crop yield, Crop rotation and Vertisol in addition to Tillage. In general Soil contamination study, his work on Soil Pollutants often relates to the realm of Trace element, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His work in Soil quality addresses issues such as Entisol, which are connected to fields such as Soil type.

He most often published in these fields:

• Agronomy (62.37%)
• Soil water (37.63%)
• Tillage (27.96%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2020)?

• Agronomy (62.37%)
• Soil contamination (24.73%)
• Environmental remediation (12.90%)

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

José M. Murillo mainly investigates Agronomy, Soil contamination, Environmental remediation, Soil water and Tillage. His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Organic matter, Soil test and Soil quality. The various areas that José M. Murillo examines in his Soil contamination study include Environmental chemistry, Biomonitoring and Botany, Seedling.

His Environmental remediation research integrates issues from Soil conditioner, Environmental engineering, Land reclamation and Bioaccumulation. José M. Murillo combines subjects such as Nutrient and Revegetation with his study of Soil water. His Tillage research incorporates themes from Sunflower, Soil carbon and Sowing.

Between 2011 and 2020, his most popular works were:

• Reduced tillage as an alternative to no-tillage under Mediterranean conditions: A case study (45 citations)
• Soil organic matter degradation in an agricultural chronosequence under different tillage regimes evaluated by organic matter pools, enzymatic activities and CPMAS ¹³C NMR (40 citations)
• Soil-plant relationships and contamination by trace elements: A review of twenty years of experimentation and monitoring after the Aznalcóllar (SW Spain) mine accident (39 citations)

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

• Ecology
• Agriculture
• Botany

José M. Murillo mainly focuses on Total organic carbon, Conservation agriculture, Land reclamation, Environmental remediation and Biomonitoring. His Conservation agriculture study combines topics in areas such as Sunflower, Soil carbon, Oleic acid and Crop rotation. His Sunflower research is under the purview of Agronomy.

His work deals with themes such as Humus, Soil quality and Mineralization, which intersect with Agronomy. His Environmental remediation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Soil Pollutants, Environmental engineering, Soil conditioner, Phytoremediation and Soil microbiology. His Biomonitoring research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Poplar trees, Botany and Contamination, Soil contamination.
