Esben Wilson Bruun

Esben Wilson Bruun is an Academic employee at the University of Copenhagen's Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences, Section for Plant and Soil Sciences. Based at Thorvaldsensvej 40, Frederiksberg C, he conducts research on soil-water dynamics with contact details: phone +4535335732 and email ewb@plen.ku.dk.

Research Interests:

• Specializes in biochar application for enhancing water retention in coarse sandy soils
• Investigates drought mitigation strategies for sustainable crop production
• Examines hydraulic conductivity modifications through soil amendments
• Develops field-scale protocols for biochar implementation in agricultural systems
• Focuses on particle-size dependent effects of biochar in subsoil environments

His 2021-2023 publications reveal a concentrated research trajectory on biochar's physical mechanisms in sandy soils, demonstrating consistent experimental approaches across field trials and laboratory analyses. Key trends include quantification of water retention improvements (up to 30% in amended soils), particle-size optimization studies, and integrated solutions for water-scarce agricultural regions.
