    Summary

    My research focus is in using quantitative methods to precisely understand how soils function and change- spatially, and through time.

    I research methods for comprehensive digital soil mapping aiming to characterize soil both in the lateral and vertical dimensions.

    I research methods for quantifying (and validating) measures of uncertainty for these comprehensive soil information systems.

    I investigate innovative systems for soil measurement, which includes that associated with remote and proximal and soil sensing instrumentation. I have particular interest in infrared and x-ray spectroscopy.
