Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Agriculture
  • Agronomy
  • Ecology

Paul Mäder mainly focuses on Agronomy, Organic farming, Soil biology, Crop rotation and Soil quality. His study looks at the relationship between Agronomy and topics such as Glomus, which overlap with Mycorrhiza. The concepts of his Organic farming study are interwoven with issues in Fertilizer, Soil water, Soil fertility, Intensive farming and Nitrous oxide.

His Intensive farming research includes themes of Soil biodiversity and Agroforestry. His Soil biology study combines topics in areas such as Organic matter and Tillage. His Crop rotation research includes elements of Biomass and Soil pH.

His most cited work include:

  • Soil Fertility and Biodiversity in Organic Farming (1986 citations)
  • Impact of land use intensity on the species diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in agroecosystems of Central Europe (584 citations)
  • Distinct soil microbial diversity under long-term organic and conventional farming. (526 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Agronomy, Organic farming, Soil quality, Soil water and Tillage. Paul Mäder has included themes like Soil biology, Nutrient and Soil fertility in his Agronomy study. His studies in Organic farming integrate themes in fields like Agroforestry, Cultivar, Crop yield and Intensive farming.

Paul Mäder combines subjects such as Organic matter, Soil carbon, Soil functions, Topsoil and Soil management with his study of Soil quality. His Soil water study deals with Greenhouse gas intersecting with Nitrous oxide. His Tillage research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in No-till farming, Weed control and Plough.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (57.79%)
  • Organic farming (33.91%)
  • Soil quality (25.95%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Soil quality (25.95%)
  • Agronomy (57.79%)
  • Agriculture (16.96%)

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

Paul Mäder mostly deals with Soil quality, Agronomy, Agriculture, Soil water and Tillage. His work carried out in the field of Soil quality brings together such families of science as Organic matter, Crop, Soil functions, Nutrient cycle and Soil management. His research in Agronomy intersects with topics in Cropping and Topsoil.

His study in Organic farming and Arable land is done as part of Agriculture. In his research on the topic of Organic farming, Loam, Soil retrogression and degradation and Soil fertility is strongly related with Plough. His work in the fields of Soil water, such as Soil organic matter and Mineralization, intersects with other areas such as Glomalin.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Sensitivity of labile carbon fractions to tillage and organic matter management and their potential as comprehensive soil quality indicators across pedoclimatic conditions in Europe (65 citations)
  • The impact of long-term organic farming on soil-derived greenhouse gas emissions (23 citations)
  • Long-term organic matter application reduces cadmium but not zinc concentrations in wheat (19 citations)

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

  • Agriculture
  • Ecology
  • Agronomy

Soil quality, Agronomy, Tillage, Soil water and Organic farming are his primary areas of study. His Soil quality study incorporates themes from Compost, Crop, Soil functions, Soil structure and Soil management. His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Soil carbon and Rhizobacteria.

His biological study deals with issues like Topsoil, which deal with fields such as Plough. Paul Mäder works mostly in the field of Soil water, limiting it down to topics relating to Biomass and, in certain cases, Lactuca, Archaea, Human fertilization and Rhizosphere, as a part of the same area of interest. His Organic farming study contributes to a more complete understanding of Agriculture.
