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

His primary areas of study are Agronomy, Soil carbon, Soil water, Biomass and Soil organic matter. His Agronomy research integrates issues from Agroecosystem, Arable land, Water content and Plant litter. His Soil carbon study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Biomass, Ecosystem, Vegetation and Topsoil.

In the field of Soil water, his study on Soil pH overlaps with subjects such as Viticulture. His Biomass research incorporates elements of Sativum, Pisum, Microbial population biology, Ergosterol and Subsoil. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Agroforestry, Mannosamine, Galactosamine and Residue, Biochemistry.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Alive and kicking: Why dormant soil microorganisms matter (72 citations)
  • Amino sugars as specific indices for fungal and bacterial residues in soil (62 citations)
  • Stoichiometry of the soil microbial biomass in response to amendments with varying C/N/P/S ratios (20 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Botany

Rainer Georg Joergensen mainly investigates Soil organic matter, Agronomy, Microbial population biology, Soil quality and Soil carbon. His Soil organic matter research focuses on Agroforestry and how it connects with Soil classification. Agronomy connects with themes related to Water content in his study.

Rainer Georg Joergensen has researched Microbial population biology in several fields, including Biomass, Agroecosystem, Intensive farming and Ergosterol. His research investigates the connection between Soil quality and topics such as Topsoil that intersect with problems in Soil chemistry, Soil biology, Soil fertility and Soil structure. The subject of his Soil salinity research is within the realm of Soil water.
