2010 - Fellow of the Soil Science Society of America (SSSA)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Erosion
  • Agriculture
  • Statistics

Erosion, Hydrology, Surface runoff, WEPP and Sediment are his primary areas of study. His work on Erosion prediction, Rill and Stream power as part of his general Erosion study is frequently connected to Hydraulics, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. Universal Soil Loss Equation is the focus of his Hydrology research.

His studies in Surface runoff integrate themes in fields like Climate change, Infiltration, Water balance, Soil conservation and Tillage. His research integrates issues of Hydraulic conductivity, Storm, Hydrology and Hydrological modelling in his study of WEPP. His studies in Sediment integrate themes in fields like Soil science and Hydraulic roughness.

His most cited work include:

  • A Process-Based Soil Erosion Model for USDA-Water Erosion Prediction Project Technology (915 citations)
  • Modeling Response of Soil Erosion and Runoff to Changes in Precipitation and Cover (468 citations)
  • Expected climate change impacts on soil erosion rates: A review (401 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Hydrology, Erosion, Surface runoff, WEPP and Sediment. His Hydrology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Soil conservation, Rangeland and Precipitation. His work carried out in the field of Erosion brings together such families of science as Soil science and Vegetation.

His research in Surface runoff intersects with topics in Infiltration, Soil water, Climate change and Arid. His WEPP study incorporates themes from Hydraulic conductivity and Hydrological modelling. His Watershed study combines topics in areas such as Channel and Gulch.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hydrology (63.71%)
  • Erosion (50.00%)
  • Surface runoff (42.34%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Hydrology (63.71%)
  • Erosion (50.00%)
  • Surface runoff (42.34%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Hydrology, Erosion, Surface runoff, Rangeland and Hydrology. His study in Hydrology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Arid, Grassland and WEPP. The various areas that Mark A. Nearing examines in his WEPP study include Universal Soil Loss Equation and Geographic information system.

In his work, Standard deviation is strongly intertwined with Soil science, which is a subfield of Erosion. The Surface runoff study combines topics in areas such as Soil conservation, Climate change, Flow velocity and Precipitation. His research integrates issues of Adaptive management, Plant community, Soil texture and Forestry in his study of Rangeland.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Global rainfall erosivity assessment based on high-temporal resolution rainfall records (156 citations)
  • Natural and anthropogenic rates of soil erosion (103 citations)
  • Trends in water balance components across the Brazilian Cerrado (89 citations)

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

  • Agriculture
  • Erosion
  • Statistics

Mark A. Nearing mostly deals with Hydrology, Surface runoff, Erosion, Soil conservation and Precipitation. His study focuses on the intersection of Hydrology and fields such as Land cover with connections in the field of Grassland. Mark A. Nearing interconnects Watershed, Deposition, Soil science and Land use in the investigation of issues within Surface runoff.

His Erosion research integrates issues from Sediment, Hydrology, Vegetation and Rangeland. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Soil biodiversity, Dryland salinity, Tillage and Universal Soil Loss Equation. His Precipitation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Hyetograph, Atmospheric sciences and Snowmelt.
