Research Interests
The quantification of soil behaviour, particularly
the prediction of water and solute movement and the fate of
agricultural chemicals and fertilisers. Interpretation and inference
of soil properties from basic soil data collected during soil
survey. Creation, adaptation and testing of computer simulation
models for predicting chemical fate in soils, e.g. pesticides,
nitrogen species and, in irrigated soils, inorganic ions which
may lead to salinity problems. Soil-plant-water relationships,
the effects of irrigation on soil and water quality, and the
characterisation of the physical properties of soils for soil
and land classification purposes. Combining simulation models
and GIS.
