In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Soil water, Life-cycle assessment, Soil carbon, Agronomy and Soil science.
His Soil water research incorporates elements of Hydrology, Vegetation and Infrared spectroscopy.
When carried out as part of a general Hydrology research project, his work on Drainage and Water content is frequently linked to work in Trafficability, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
His Life-cycle assessment research integrates issues from Circular economy, Environmental impact assessment, Eutrophication and Food waste.
His research in Soil carbon intersects with topics in Land use, Soil texture, Soil pH, Mineralogy and Carbon cycle.
His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Soil organic matter, Soil type and Soil respiration.
Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Soil organic carbon across scales. (70 citations)
- An assessment of model averaging to improve predictive power of portable vis-NIR and XRF for the determination of agronomic soil properties (68 citations)
- Quantitative soil quality indexing of temperate arable management systems (55 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Agriculture
- Ecology
- Statistics
His primary areas of investigation include Soil carbon, Agronomy, Life-cycle assessment, Soil quality and Soil water.
He has researched Soil carbon in several fields, including Hydrology, Soil texture, Soil pH, Mean squared error and Mineralogy.
His Agronomy research includes elements of Ultisol and Surface runoff.
He has included themes like Waste management, Waste disposal, Agriculture and Environmental impact assessment in his Life-cycle assessment study.
His Soil quality research entails a greater understanding of Soil science.
