Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Agriculture
  • Ecology
  • Fertilizer

His main research concerns Leaching, Agronomy, Agriculture, Manure and Lysimeter. His research on Leaching concerns the broader Soil water. Lars Bergström focuses mostly in the field of Agronomy, narrowing it down to matters related to Nitrate and, in some cases, Intensive farming.

The various areas that Lars Bergström examines in his Agriculture study include Environmental engineering, Environmental planning, Water quality, Hydrology and Eutrophication. His Manure study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Green manure and Hordeum vulgare. He works mostly in the field of Lysimeter, limiting it down to topics relating to Leachate and, in certain cases, Dry matter, DNS root zone and Sorption.

His most cited work include:

  • Phosphorus leaching in relation to soil type and soil phosphorus content. (261 citations)
  • Managing agricultural phosphorus for water quality protection: principles for progress (170 citations)
  • Future agriculture with minimized phosphorus losses to waters: Research needs and direction (139 citations)

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

Lars Bergström mainly focuses on Leaching, Soil water, Agronomy, Agriculture and Lysimeter. The concepts of his Leaching study are interwoven with issues in Nitrate, Loam and Environmental engineering. His studies deal with areas such as Environmental chemistry and Leachate as well as Soil water.

His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Nutrient management and Agronomy. His study in Agriculture is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Nutrient and Environmental protection. His Lysimeter research incorporates themes from Leaching and Hordeum vulgare.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Leaching (40.57%)
  • Soil water (38.68%)
  • Agronomy (32.08%)

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

  • Soil water (38.68%)
  • Leaching (40.57%)
  • Topsoil (16.04%)

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

Lars Bergström focuses on Soil water, Leaching, Topsoil, Agronomy and Agriculture. Lars Bergström combines subjects such as Environmental chemistry and Leachate with his study of Soil water. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Leaching model, Soil fertility and Eutrophication.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Water quality and Manure in addition to Eutrophication. His Topsoil research incorporates elements of Subsoil and Sorption. His work in the fields of Agronomy, such as Fertilizer and Crop yield, intersects with other areas such as Saturation.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Future agriculture with minimized phosphorus losses to waters: Research needs and direction (139 citations)
  • Implementing agricultural phosphorus science and management to combat eutrophication (105 citations)
  • Topsoil and subsoil properties influence phosphorus leaching from four agricultural soils. (77 citations)

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

  • Agriculture
  • Ecology
  • Fertilizer

His primary scientific interests are in Agronomy, Soil water, Leaching, Manure and Agriculture. Lars Bergström interconnects Cropping and Crop production in the investigation of issues within Agronomy. His study looks at the relationship between Soil water and topics such as Leachate, which overlap with Animal science and Slurry.

Lars Bergström has researched Leaching in several fields, including Soil fertility and Eutrophication. Lars Bergström studied Manure and Fertilizer that intersect with Manure management. As a part of the same scientific study, Lars Bergström usually deals with the Agriculture, concentrating on Environmental planning and frequently concerns with Ecology, Hydrology and Agricultural productivity.
