Larry E. Wagner

PROFESSIONAL INFO:

Research Interests:

Wind erosion mechanics, control, prediction and related disciplines.

Current Research and Responsibilities:

• Evaluating effects of management operations (tillage, irrigation, etc.) on soil properties that directly affect a soil's susceptibility to wind erosion.
  
  
• Determining the amount of standing residue flattened by management operations.
  
  
• Leading the development of the MANAGEMENT submodel component of the Wind Erosion Prediction System (WEPS).
