Dr. Moacir Tuzzin de Moraes is a Professor in the Department of Soil Science at the Luiz de Queiroz College of Agriculture, University of São Paulo. He completed his doctoral studies in Soil Science at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul. He has published more than 60 research papers in various journals and serves as a Guest Editor for journals in the fields of Agronomy, Agriculture, and Sustainability. His teaching includes Soil Physics, and his research interests focus on the effects of soil physical conditions on root growth, soil physical quality, water and gas flow in soil, soil–root–plant–atmosphere interactions, and root growth modeling. His work particularly emphasizes the physical stresses experienced by roots growing in soil, with special attention to the no-tillage system and its relationship with water and mechanical stress affecting root elongation.
