What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Rainer Horn spends much of his time researching Soil water, Soil science, Geotechnical engineering, Soil structure and Hydraulic conductivity.
His studies deal with areas such as Agronomy and Water content as well as Soil water.
The various areas that Rainer Horn examines in his Water content study include Soil organic matter and Pedotransfer function.
His research in Soil science intersects with topics in Compaction and Tillage.
His Geotechnical engineering research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Shrinkage, Stress and Soil mechanics.
His Soil structure research incorporates themes from Soil type, Soil morphology, Porosity and Soil compaction.
He most often published in these fields:
- Soil water (51.69%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?
- Soil water (51.69%)
- Soil science (43.96%)
- Hydraulic conductivity (15.94%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Rainer Horn mostly deals with Soil water, Soil science, Hydraulic conductivity, Water content and Soil test.
His Bulk density, Loam, Soil structure, Soil horizon and Water potential investigations are all subjects of Soil water research.
His work is dedicated to discovering how Soil science, Compaction are connected with Subsoil and Conventional tillage and other disciplines.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Geotechnical engineering, Silt, Land use and Arable land in addition to Hydraulic conductivity.
In his research, Bulk soil, Soil texture and Pedogenesis is intimately related to Pedotransfer function, which falls under the overarching field of Water content.
In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Soil test, Histosol is strongly linked to Soil carbon.
Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Modeling Soil Processes: Review, Key Challenges, and New Perspectives (313 citations)
- Land use change impacts on floods at the catchment scale : challenges and opportunities for future research (117 citations)
- Conceptual framework for capacity and intensity physical soil properties affected by short and long-term (14 years) continuous no-tillage and controlled traffic (80 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Soil water
- Agriculture
His main research concerns Soil science, Soil water, Hydraulic conductivity, Water content and Soil structure.
In his study, Bulk density, Triticale and Cation-exchange capacity is strongly linked to Compaction, which falls under the umbrella field of Soil science.
His work on Soil test, Soil functions and Pedotransfer function as part of his general Soil water study is frequently connected to Biochar, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.
His Soil test study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Stress distribution, Stress and Geotechnical engineering.
His Hydraulic conductivity research includes elements of Silt and Arable land.
His work carried out in the field of Soil structure brings together such families of science as Micro tomography, Phototroph, Soil processes, Soil physics and Soil mechanics.
