My research focuses on (i) understanding of water vapor sorption processes in soils, and the utilization of hygroscopic water content as a predictor of soil properties (clay content, surface area, CEC, Atterberg limits, etc.), (ii) the use of biochar, compost, and manure in temperate and tropical agricultural systems to improve soil fertility and crop yields in the short and long term, and (iii) mechanisms and controls of soil compaction recovery.
