Research Interests
Development and application of computer-based analytical tools (crop simulation models, weather generators, watershed models, geographical information systems) to study the effect of soil, weather, land use, and management on crop productivity and the environment. Assessment of agricultural systems in relation to climate change, atmospheric CO2 elevation, emission of greenhouse gases, and nutrient cycling analyses.
