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

Wilhelm Claupein mainly investigates Agronomy, Horticulture, Organic farming, Tillage and Cultivar. His research in Crop yield, Crop, Weed control, Weed and Crop rotation are components of Agronomy. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Intercropping and Crop yield.

Horticulture is closely attributed to Dry matter in his research. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Tillage, narrowing it down to issues related to the Plough, and often No-till farming. His Cultivar research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Dormancy, Asparagine, Food science and Growing season.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (61.39%)
  • Horticulture (18.81%)
  • Organic farming (13.37%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2020)?

  • Agronomy (61.39%)
  • Horticulture (18.81%)
  • Cultivar (12.87%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Agronomy, Horticulture, Cultivar, Organic farming and Brassica. His study in Tillage, Crop rotation, Field trial, Cropping system and Winter wheat falls under the purview of Agronomy. His Horticulture research includes elements of Texture analyzer and Botany.

His studies deal with areas such as Sugar, Food science and Asparagine as well as Cultivar. His Organic farming study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Crop yield, Community gardening and Growing season. The concepts of his Brassica study are interwoven with issues in Seed dormancy and Dormancy.

Between 2015 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • A Programmable Aerial Multispectral Camera System for In-Season Crop Biomass and Nitrogen Content Estimation (42 citations)
  • Quality assessment of 178 cultivars of plum regarding phenolic, anthocyanin and sugar content. (28 citations)
  • Soil carbon stocks in different bioenergy cropping systems including subsoil (21 citations)

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

  • Agronomy
  • Botany
  • Horticulture

Wilhelm Claupein mainly focuses on Agronomy, Food science, Crop rotation, Horticulture and Botany. Agronomy combines with fields such as Cadmium and Abiotic component in his work. His study on Chlorogenic acid is often connected to ABTS as part of broader study in Food science.

His Crop rotation research incorporates elements of Linum, Tillage, Organic farming and Temperate climate. His work in the fields of Horticulture, such as Anthocyanin, Ripening and Hybrid, intersects with other areas such as Development period. His Botany research incorporates themes from Breed and Quality assessment.
