Vita
Gary is a soil scientist, with specialized training and expertise in soil physics.
He conducts and publishes personal and team research. Gary serves as lead scientist for some research projects and as a collaborator on others. He reviews research papers and proposals and serves as an Associate Editor on the editorial board of the journal Arid Land Research and Management.
He earned a Bachelor's and two Master's degrees (one in Environmental Pollution Control and one in Agronomy) from Penn State University in the late 1970's and a Ph.D. in Soil Physics from Mississippi State University in 1985. Throughout the past 26 years, Gary has been employed by the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture at Kimberly as a soil scientist studying soil structure, water movement, and irrigation management.
Research
Current Interests
Ars 13 3402
In his current personal and team research, Gary seeks 1) to increase sugarbeet seedling emergence by minimizing soil crusting and improving soil physical and hydraulic properties, 2) to utilize agricultural by-products, such as whey, manure, and compost, and irrigation management to increase crop production efficiency and improve soil properties, and 3) to characterize and control preferential transport of nutrients, such as N & P, and other solutes through soil, thereby protecting groundwater quality. Historically, much of Gary's research has focused on the processes and products responsible for soil aggregate formation, stabilization, and destruction in cultivated irrigated soils.
Gary is now studying 1) N & P release from soil aggregates fractured by freezing and thawing processes, 2) soil organic carbon effects on soil physical & hydraulic properties, 3) runoff water quality from fields that have received compost and manure, and 4) water movement and chemical transport through surfactant-treated wettable and non-wettable soils. In a collaborative investigation with University of Idaho researchers, Gary is studying organic amendment effects on soil structure and N management.
