      López-Bellido Garrido, Pedro José; López Bellido, Luis; Fernández García, María Purificación; Muñoz-Romero, Verónica; López-Bellido, Francisco J. (Taylor & Francis, 2016)
      Tree plantations are characterized by their ability to remove CO2 from the atmosphere and store it in a stable manner in tree structures (trunks, roots and branches) as well as in the soil. The study was conducted in ...
    • Carbon storage in a rainfed Mediterranean vertisol: Effects of tillage and crop rotation in a long-term experiment 

      López Bellido, Luis; López-Bellido Garrido, Rafael J.; Fernández García, María Purificación; Muñoz-Romero, Verónica; López-Bellido, Francisco J. (Wiley, 2019)
      The storage of carbon (C) in cultivated soils can be increased with the adoption of different practices. The objective of this study was to determine soil organic carbon (SOC) storage in the 0- to 90-cm depth profile, in ...
    • Chickpea and faba bean nitrogen fixation in a Mediterranean rainfed Vertisol: effect of the tillage system 

      López-Bellido Garrido, Rafael J.; López Bellido, Luis; Benítez-Vega, Jorge; Muñoz-Romero, Verónica; López-Bellido, Francisco J.; Redondo, Ramón (Science Direct, 2011)
      Efficient management of legumes in order to maximize benefits depends on a correct field assessment of N2 fixation. A field experiment was conducted during a 6-year period (2001–2002 to 2006–2007) in Córdoba (Southern ...
    • Crack formation in a mediterranean rainfed Vertisol: Effects of tillage and crop rotation 

      López-Bellido Garrido, Rafael J.; Muñoz-Romero, Verónica; López-Bellido, Francisco J.; Guzmán, Carlos; López Bellido, Luis (Science Direct, 2016)
      The frequency, size and development rate of Vertisols cracks influence the water, solute and heat dynamics and hence on the crop productivity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the tillage system and crop ...
