What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Agriculture
- Enzyme
His primary areas of study are Agronomy, Soil water, Crop rotation, Microbial population biology and Ecology.
His Agronomy research incorporates themes from Soil test, Soil quality and Mineralization.
His Soil water research includes themes of Biomass, Food science and Sorption.
His research in Crop rotation intersects with topics in No-till farming, Soil management and Green manure.
As part of the same scientific family, Richard P. Dick usually focuses on Microbial population biology, concentrating on Microbial ecology and intersecting with Lignin, Crop residue and Mollisol.
His research integrates issues of Amidase and Soil enzyme in his study of Ecology.
His most cited work include:
- Field management effects on soil enzyme activities (881 citations)
- A review: long-term effects of agricultural systems on soil biochemical and microbial parameters (503 citations)
- Soil Enzyme Activities as Indicators of Soil Quality (448 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Agronomy, Soil water, Soil quality, Cover crop and Environmental chemistry.
Specifically, his work in Agronomy is concerned with the study of Crop rotation.
His work deals with themes such as Cropping system and Green manure, which intersect with Crop rotation.
His study in Soil water is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Biomass and Microbial population biology.
His Soil quality research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Soil type, Soil conditioner, Soil organic matter, Canopy and Crop yield.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Soil biology and Tillage in addition to Soil organic matter.
He most often published in these fields:
- Agronomy (53.67%)
- Soil water (33.94%)
- Soil quality (15.60%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?
- Agronomy (53.67%)
- Soil water (33.94%)
- Soil quality (15.60%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Richard P. Dick mainly investigates Agronomy, Soil water, Soil quality, Shrub and Microbial population biology.
His Agronomy research includes elements of Soil management, Rhizosphere, Nutrient and Soil conditioner.
The concepts of his Soil management study are interwoven with issues in Soil biology and Soil health.
His studies in Soil water integrate themes in fields like Anaerobic oxidation of methane, Wetland and Stable-isotope probing.
In his research on the topic of Soil quality, Soil organic matter and Soil retrogression and degradation is strongly related with Soil fertility.
His study looks at the relationship between Microbial population biology and topics such as Glyphosate, which overlap with Potassium.
Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Soil Enzyme Activities as Indicators of Soil Quality (448 citations)
- Soil enzyme activity: a brief history and biochemistry as a basis for appropriate interpretations and meta-analysis (134 citations)
- Glyphosate effects on soil rhizosphere-associated bacterial communities (96 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Agriculture
- Botany
His main research concerns Agronomy, Microbial population biology, Soil water, Soil quality and Rhizosphere.
He works on Agronomy which deals in particular with Crop.
His Microbial population biology research includes themes of Glyphosate, Nutrient, Soil microbiology and Fatty acid.
His work on Hydraulic redistribution as part of general Soil water study is frequently linked to Guiera senegalensis, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His Soil quality research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Monoculture, Chronosequence, Soil fertility, Canopy and Heavy metals.
Richard P. Dick has included themes like Intercropping, Gibberella, Fusarium and Phoma in his Rhizosphere study.
