My research focuses on soil resource inventory, wetland mapping, wetland hydrology, morphology of hydric soils, hydric soil indicator research, soil health and carbon measurement, and soil sampling/classification for research. I assist multiple graduate students in their soils research with tools, techniques, and expertise in soil science and soil sampling. I do Soil Information extension through training and publication. I contribute to development of the Universal Soil Classification System and US Soil Taxonomy to include Human-altered and Human-transported soils.
