JOSE EUGENIO LOPEZ PERIAGO

Jose Eugenio Lopez Periago is a full-time researcher at the University of Vigo, affiliated with the Faculty of Sciences and the Department of Plant Biology and Soil Sciences. His work focuses on soil chemistry, environmental toxicology, and agroecology, particularly in vineyard soils and pesticide transport.

• Education: PhD in Environmental Science from the University of Santiago de Compostela (1993), thesis on groundwater contamination by cattle manure in Terra Chá under Dr. Francisco Díaz-Fierros Viqueira.

Research Interests: His studies address copper dynamics in agricultural soils, pesticide transport mechanisms, soil structure analysis via computed tomography, and sustainable soil management practices. Key themes include heavy metal pollution, bioremediation, and soil ecosystem services.

Article Trends: Recent publications emphasize Tenebrio molitor applications, allelopathic biomass for weed control, 3D-printed soil scaffolds, and soil pore network characterization. His work bridges environmental science, materials engineering, and agricultural sustainability.

Labs & Teams: Affiliated with the Institute of Agroecology and Food, focusing on soil health and agrochemical impacts. Collaborates with researchers like P. Pérez-Rodríguez, M. Paradelo, and D. Soto-Gómez on interdisciplinary projects.
