1. Denitrifying Woodchip Bioreactor Performance in the Pacific Northwest

Runoff and tile drainage from agricultural activity is known to be a significant contributor of nitrogen pollution to surface waters.  Denitrifying woodchip bioreactors, also known as Permeable Reactive Barriers (PBR) have been studied as a possible edge-of-field technology for reducing nitrogen concentrations in agricultural runoff.  These units have been studied mostly in the US Midwest and mostly for irrigated crop systems.  Little work has been done in alternative climate regimes...

2. Developing a Soil Health Assessment Framework for Specialty Crop Systems and Soils of Washington State

To ensure productive soils, agricultural sustainability, and food security, it is vital to maintain and improve soil health. However, over the decades, intensive agricultural practices have led to a decline in soil health. While most of these intensive agricultural practices negatively affect soil health, research has shown that it is possible to resuscitate soils with practices such as over cropping, and crop rotation. Much of the research on soil health in the US has been done in agronomic systems... K.A. Sarpong, M. Mcilquham, L. Michel, D. Griffin
