Overview

Tarsy Carballas is affiliated with the Spanish National Research Council in Spain, contributing to research primarily in Environmental Science and Agricultural and Biological Sciences. Their work addresses key topics such as fire effects on ecosystems, soil carbon and nitrogen dynamics, landslides and related hazards, rangeland and wildlife management, and coal properties and utilization.

The scientist has published in notable academic venues, including:

  • The Science of The Total Environment (2 publications)
  • Geosciences (1 publication)

Recent papers authored by Carballas highlight aspects of soil microbial dynamics and fire impacts on ecosystems:

  • Key factors controlling microbial community responses after a fire: Importance of severity and recurrence (2020, The Science of The Total Environment)
  • Soil Heating at High Temperatures and Different Water Content: Effects on the Soil Microorganisms (2020, Geosciences)
  • Effect of repeated soil heating at different temperatures on microbial activity in two burned soils (2021, The Science of The Total Environment)

Frequent co-authors contributing alongside Carballas include:

  • Alba Lombao
  • Ana Barreiro
  • A. Martín
  • Montserrat Díaz-Raviña
  • Teresa Fontúrbel

Their research encompasses several subfields within Environmental Science and related disciplines, such as:

  • Global and Planetary Change
  • Soil Science
  • Management, Monitoring, Policy and Law
  • Ecology
  • Ocean Engineering

Carballas's work integrates knowledge on ecosystem responses to fire, including factors affecting microbial community recovery and soil properties alterations after heating events. These investigations contribute to understanding environmental processes and potential management approaches for fire-affected landscapes and soil systems.
