Víctor Hugo Durán Zuazo (Ph.D., 2001) has expertise in soil management systems with rainfed woody crops in areas with high erosion risk, in water stress management strategies in irrigated fruit trees (avocado, mango, citrus, and almond trees), and in woody crops for bioenergy. He has been involved in different research projects at national, regional, and EU levels on land use changes, soil and water conservation, water-use efficiency, soil quality, and biomass. The results of these projects have led to the publication of more than 69 articles in SCI-JCR journals, 72 articles in non-SCI-JCR journals, 12 books, and 35 book chapters, in addition to a series of technical reports and contributions to national and international conferences. Dr. Durán Zuazo is an Associate Editor of Agronomy for Sustainable Development (INRAE, France) and Comunicata Scientiae (FUP-Brazil) journals and collaborates as a reviewer with many other peer-reviewed scientific journals. He has carried out postdoctoral stays at Wageningen University, Netherlands (Environmental Sciences-Soil & Water Conservation Department), and at the Agricultural Research Service USDA (National Soil Erosion Research Laboratory-NSERL, West Lafayette, Indiana, USA). Dr. Durán Zuazo is the head of the PAIDI non-university research group AGR-144 of Andalusian Institute of Agricultural and Fisheries Research and Training (IFAPA) “Conservation and Sustainable Use of Soil, Water and Biodiversity in Agricultural Systems”.
