Leo Stroosnijder

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Agriculture
• Ecology
• Irrigation

His primary areas of study are Hydrology, Soil water, Surface runoff, Agroforestry and Agronomy. He has researched Hydrology in several fields, including Soil conservation and Land use. His Soil conservation study deals with Land use, land-use change and forestry intersecting with Soil retrogression and degradation.

His studies in Soil water integrate themes in fields like Cover crop, Eucalyptus and Evapotranspiration. The various areas that he examines in his Surface runoff study include Soil management and Rainwater harvesting. His research in Agroforestry intersects with topics in Farm water, Agriculture, Water scarcity, Land degradation and Vegetation.

His most cited work include:

• EFFECTS OF FIRE AND HERBIVORY ON THE STABILITY OF SAVANNA ECOSYSTEMS (566 citations)
• Soil conservation through sediment trapping: a review (166 citations)
• Measurement of erosion: Is it possible? (164 citations)

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

Leo Stroosnijder mostly deals with Agroforestry, Agronomy, Hydrology, Soil conservation and Soil water. His Agroforestry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Agriculture, Land use, Land degradation and Vegetation. His Vegetation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Soil retrogression and degradation, Herbivore, Grazing and Ecosystem.

His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Soil management and Soil fertility. His research investigates the connection between Soil conservation and topics such as Lixisol that intersect with problems in Compost. His biological study deals with issues like Arid, which deal with fields such as Water resource management.

He most often published in these fields:

• Agroforestry (26.86%)
• Agronomy (26.86%)
• Hydrology (20.57%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2017)?

• Agronomy (26.86%)
• Hydrology (20.57%)
• Irrigation (8.57%)

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

Leo Stroosnijder spends much of his time researching Agronomy, Hydrology, Irrigation, Agroforestry and Soil conservation. His Agronomy research incorporates elements of Soil water and Wet season. His research in Hydrology focuses on subjects like Sediment trapping, which are connected to Indigenous.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Water scarcity, Water resource management, Rainwater harvesting, Hydraulic engineering and Food security in addition to Irrigation. His Agroforestry study combines topics in areas such as Agriculture and Minimum tillage. His work deals with themes such as Biomass, Pennisetum, Sedimentation and Environmental resource management, which intersect with Soil conservation.

Between 2010 and 2017, his most popular works were:

• Soil conservation through sediment trapping: a review (166 citations)
• Rainwater harvesting and management in rainfed agricultural systems in sub-Saharan Africa - A review (135 citations)
• Assessing drought risk and irrigation need in northern Ethiopia (89 citations)

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

• Agriculture
• Ecology
• Irrigation

Leo Stroosnijder mainly focuses on Agronomy, Irrigation, Soil conservation, Hydrology and Rainwater harvesting. His work carried out in the field of Agronomy brings together such families of science as Soil management, Soil water and Wet season. Leo Stroosnijder focuses mostly in the field of Irrigation, narrowing it down to matters related to Water resource management and, in some cases, Natural resource economics.

The Soil conservation study combines topics in areas such as Biomass, Pennisetum, Sedimentation and Tiller. His Hydrology research is mostly focused on the topic Surface runoff. His Rainwater harvesting study also includes fields such as

• Food security and related Agroforestry,
• Rainfed agriculture which connect with Cropping system and Conservation agriculture.
