Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Erosion

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Erosion, Surface runoff, Sediment, Hydrology and Agronomy. Her Erosion research focuses on subjects like Mediterranean climate, which are linked to Drip irrigation, Ponding and Soil carbon. The concepts of her Surface runoff study are interwoven with issues in Soil organic matter, Soil conservation, Mulch, Hydrology and Land degradation.

Her Sediment research includes themes of Population density, Soil contamination, Environmental engineering and Land use. Saskia Keesstra combines subjects such as Deposition, Sedimentation, Agricultural land and Riparian zone with her study of Hydrology. Her Agronomy research includes themes of Soil fertility, Soil water, Soil management, Soil biodiversity and No-till farming.

Her most cited work include:

  • The significance of soils and soil science towards realization of the United Nations sustainable development goals (626 citations)
  • The superior effect of nature based solutions in land management for enhancing ecosystem services. (288 citations)
  • The superior effect of nature based solutions in land management for enhancing ecosystem services. (288 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Hydrology, Erosion, Surface runoff, Sediment and Soil water. She combines topics linked to Deposition with her work on Hydrology. Her Erosion study combines topics in areas such as Shrubland, Agronomy, Splash, Mediterranean climate and Land degradation.

She interconnects Agriculture and Bulk density in the investigation of issues within Agronomy. Her work investigates the relationship between Surface runoff and topics such as Mulch that intersect with problems in Straw. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Infiltration and Tillage.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Hydrology (43.79%)
  • Erosion (28.26%)
  • Surface runoff (26.71%)

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

  • Erosion (28.26%)
  • Hydrology (43.79%)
  • Ecosystem services (11.18%)

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

Saskia Keesstra spends much of her time researching Erosion, Hydrology, Ecosystem services, Sediment and Ecosystem. Her work on Surface runoff expands to the thematically related Erosion. As a part of the same scientific study, she usually deals with the Surface runoff, concentrating on Arid and frequently concerns with Temporal scales and Land degradation.

Her Hydrology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Soil water, Splash, River morphology and Vegetation. Her Sediment study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Channel and Mediterranean climate. Her Ecosystem research incorporates themes from Natural resource, Climate change, Environmental resource management and Land use.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Straw mulch as a sustainable solution to decrease runoff and erosion in glyphosate-treated clementine plantations in Eastern Spain. An assessment using rainfall simulation experiments (90 citations)
  • Straw mulch as a sustainable solution to decrease runoff and erosion in glyphosate-treated clementine plantations in Eastern Spain. An assessment using rainfall simulation experiments (90 citations)
  • Gully erosion susceptibility assessment and management of hazard-prone areas in India using different machine learning algorithms (84 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Erosion

Ecosystem services, Ecosystem, Erosion, Land use and Natural resource are her primary areas of study. Her research integrates issues of Natural resource economics and Land management in her study of Ecosystem services. Her Erosion research integrates issues from Area under the roc curve, Linear discriminant analysis, Surface runoff and Scale.

Her research in Surface runoff intersects with topics in Drainage basin, Mediterranean climate and Sediment. Her Sediment study incorporates themes from Straw, Mulch, Agronomy, Drip irrigation and Ponding. Her Natural resource research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Land cover, Ecosystem valuation, Wetland and Environmental resource management.
