EMPLOYMENT: Present Postdoctoral Research Associate, Dept. of
Agronomy, Iowa State University 1. Studying the effect of biochar addition on physical and chemical properties of the soil and greenhouse gas emission. 2. Developing rapid screening procedure to differentiate between qualities of biochar for agricultural use utilizing standard germination test. 3. Teaching Master of Science in Agronomy distance education course in Soil Management. 4. Edited and updated course material for the Master of Science in Agronomy distance education course in Soil Management.
2000-
2006 Graduate Research Assistant, Dept.
of Agronomy, Iowa State University 1. Conducted precision farming
research to develop an index that helps characterize stresses on soybean as related to
pH and calcium carbonate content of the soil 2. Conducted research to develop
methodology of mapping high pH, calcareous soils on the field scale using precision
farming technologies 3. Conducted statistical analysis
of data and presented results of the studies to the
scientific community, crop producers, and
crop consultants. Considerable time was spent working on managing spatial data using GIS
mapping software 4. Trained and supervised
personnel
involved in field data collections, and soil and plant sample analyses in the research
laboratory 5. Assisted in writing progress
reports and grant proposals 1999-2000
