What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Agriculture
- Erosion
His primary areas of study are Hydrology, Soil water, Water content, Surface runoff and Total organic carbon.
His study in the field of Drainage basin is also linked to topics like Christian ministry.
The concepts of his Water content study are interwoven with issues in Infiltration and Soil horizon.
In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Surface runoff, Soil retrogression and degradation, Bulk density, Mollisol and Shrubland is strongly linked to Plant cover.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Agronomy and Irrigation.
His study in Agronomy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cation-exchange capacity, Land reclamation, Saline water and Soil salinity.
His most cited work include:
- Factors regulating spatial distribution of soil water content in small semiarid catchments (259 citations)
- The role of antecedent soil water content in the runoff response of semiarid catchments: a simulation approach (256 citations)
- Measuring soil erosion by field plots: understanding the sources of variation (185 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Victor Castillo focuses on Hydrology, Soil water, Agronomy, Erosion and Surface runoff.
Victor Castillo has researched Hydrology in several fields, including Mediterranean climate and Organic matter.
His research integrates issues of Total organic carbon and Water content in his study of Soil water.
His Agronomy research incorporates elements of Afforestation and Nutrient.
The Erosion study combines topics in areas such as Soil science, Common spatial pattern, Vegetation and Environmental resource management.
In his study, Agroforestry and Plant cover is strongly linked to Soil retrogression and degradation, which falls under the umbrella field of Surface runoff.
He most often published in these fields:
- Hydrology (45.90%)
- Soil water (27.87%)
- Agronomy (24.59%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2020)?
- Environmental resource management (11.48%)
- Erosion (21.31%)
- Hydrology (45.90%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Victor Castillo mostly deals with Environmental resource management, Erosion, Hydrology, Land use and Scale.
His study focuses on the intersection of Erosion and fields such as Mediterranean climate with connections in the field of Revegetation, Environmental engineering and Erosion control.
His work on Surface runoff is typically connected to Spatial variability as part of general Hydrology study, connecting several disciplines of science.
His Surface runoff research includes elements of Soil conservation, Anticyclone and Soil retrogression and degradation.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Reforestation and Ecosystem services in addition to Land use.
His Vegetation research includes themes of Drainage basin and Terrace.
Between 2011 and 2020, his most popular works were:
- Spatial variability of the relationships of runoff and sediment yield with weather types throughout the Mediterranean basin (21 citations)
- Sustainable land management contribution to successful land-based climate change adaptation and mitigation : a report of the Science-Policy Interface (13 citations)
- Implementing land degradation neutrality: From policy challenges to policy opportunities for national sustainable development (7 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Agriculture
- Ecosystem
Science policy, Sustainable land management, Interface, Environmental resource management and Land based are his primary areas of study.
Victor Castillo performs integrative study on Science policy and Climate change adaptation.
