Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Erosion
  • Hydrology
  • Agriculture

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Surface runoff, Hydrology, Erosion, Sediment and Soil water. Surface runoff is closely attributed to Infiltration in his work. His Hydrology study also includes

  • Soil conservation that intertwine with fields like Land cover,
  • Vegetation together with Snowmelt, Deposition and Land degradation.

The concepts of his Erosion study are interwoven with issues in Watershed, Land use and Arable land. His Sediment course of study focuses on Erosion prediction and Spatial distribution and Cover crop. He has researched Soil water in several fields, including Remote sensing, Loess and Hydrological modelling.

His most cited work include:

  • Modeling Response of Soil Erosion and Runoff to Changes in Precipitation and Cover (468 citations)
  • Rates and spatial variations of soil erosion in Europe: A study based on erosion plot data (414 citations)
  • Scale effect on runoff from experimental plots to catchments in agricultural areas in Normandy (158 citations)

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

Olivier Cerdan spends much of his time researching Hydrology, Erosion, Sediment, Surface runoff and Drainage basin. His Hydrology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Structural basin, Soil water, Soil conservation and Land use. Olivier Cerdan usually deals with Erosion and limits it to topics linked to Physical geography and Climate change.

His work on Deposition, Sedimentary budget and Sediment transport as part of his general Sediment study is frequently connected to Context, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. The study incorporates disciplines such as Infiltration, Vegetation and Spatial ecology in addition to Surface runoff. His Drainage basin research integrates issues from Dominance, Water quality, Tile drainage and Rating curve.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hydrology (65.00%)
  • Erosion (51.43%)
  • Sediment (42.86%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Sediment (42.86%)
  • Hydrology (65.00%)
  • Erosion (51.43%)

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

Olivier Cerdan mostly deals with Sediment, Hydrology, Erosion, Drainage basin and Physical geography. His Sediment research incorporates elements of Typhoon, Soil water, Flood myth and Land use. His Hydrology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Current and Agriculture.

The various areas that Olivier Cerdan examines in his Erosion study include Deposition and Surface runoff. His work carried out in the field of Surface runoff brings together such families of science as Spatial ecology and Soil conservation. Within one scientific family, Olivier Cerdan focuses on topics pertaining to Tile drainage under Drainage basin, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Residence time, Water resources and Land degradation.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Indices of sediment connectivity: opportunities, challenges and limitations (89 citations)
  • The impact of typhoons on sediment connectivity: lessons learnt from contaminated coastal catchments of the Fukushima Prefecture (Japan) (37 citations)
  • Investigating the temporal dynamics of suspended sediment during flood events with 7Be and 210Pbxs measurements in a drained lowland catchment. (19 citations)

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

  • Erosion
  • Hydrology
  • Agriculture

Sediment, Hydrology, Erosion, Physical geography and Agriculture are his primary areas of study. His study in Hydrology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Typhoon and Deposition. His Erosion study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Storm and Arable land.

His Physical geography study combines topics in areas such as Soil conservation, Agricultural land, Land use, land-use change and forestry and Disturbance. His Land use, land-use change and forestry research incorporates themes from Routing, Land cover, Surface runoff, Spatial ecology and Afforestation. He combines subjects such as Headwater catchment, Structural basin, Current and Bank erosion with his study of Agriculture.
