Explored the role of residue management practices on biomass yield, biogeochemical regulation, nutrient cycling, soil water content and greenhouse gas emissions in grasses used as biofuel feedstock at the Kellogg Biological Station LTER. Presented twice, published twice.

Fort Lauderdale, Fl

-Investigated the transport of nonhazardous, secondarily treated, domestic wastewater (effluent) from an injection zone to overlying permeable zones in the Floridan aquifer system (an Underground Source of Drinking Water)-Used FORTRAN and SEAWAT to create an analytical model for tracking effluent injection and hypothetical effluent transport paths-The investigation qualitatively indicated that fractures, karst-collapse structures, faults, or other hydrogeologic features may permit effluent injected into the Boulder Zone to be transported to overlying permeable zones in the Floridan aquifer system
