  1. Improved Environmental Characterization to Support Natural Resource Decision Making: (1) Distributed Soil Characterization, and (2) Treatment of Legacy Nutrients

    … (1) accurate soil mapping and (2) treatment of nitrogen to affect water quality change.The current method of soil mapping, SSURGO (USDA‐NRCS Soil survey), is often erroneous and misleading. Two studies in this dissertation are conducted to evaluate the potential that different resolution digital …

  2. Using Monte Carlo Analysis to Assess Outcome-based Payment for Environmental Services for Denitrifying Bioreactors in the Chesapeake Bay

    … that convert biologically available forms of nitrogen into an inert form (N_2), have recently been proposed to treat and remove legacy nitrogen from springs (Easton et al., 2019). Since nitrogen removal can be directly measured, there is potential to implement an outcome-based PES program. …

  3. Legacy Nutrient Management and Remediation in Diverse Agricultural Watersheds

    … impairments persist due to the accumulation of legacy nutrients—phosphorus (P) stored in soils and nitrogen (N) stored in groundwater—that continue to be mobilized long after management changes are implemented. This dissertation evaluates the magnitude, persistence, uncertainty, and mitigation …
