Harold van Es |
|
|
 |
Dr. van Es is
Professor of Soil and Water Management.
His program includes projects on precision agriculture, soil and water conservation,
nitrogen dynamics in soils, soil health and contaminate movement.
|
|
William Cox |
|
|
 |
Dr. Cox's is a Professor of Crop Science and his program
focuses on the environmental, biotic, and management interactions that
influence the growth, development, yield, and quality of corn, soybeans, and
wheat in New York. His extension program, supported strongly by his applied
research program, recommends the best management practices for corn,
soybeans, and wheat in New York. |

Toni DiTomasso |
|
|
 |
Dr. DiTomasso's is an Assistant Professor of Weed Science.
His major research interests are in
the areas of weed biology/ecology, biological weed control, and integrated
weed management. He has found Precision agriculture tools to be useful
in the research setting and has worked with site-specific control techniques
and spatial analysis of weed distributions. |

Steve DeGloria |
|
|
 |
Stephen DeGloria is a
Professor
of Resource Inventory and Analysisis in and the Chair
of the Department of Crop and Soil. His
interests focus on advancing the development and use of spatial data for
meeting the environmental information needs of society both domestically and
internationally. |

|
|
Art Lembo |
|
|
 |
Dr. Lembo is a Senior Research
Associate and Lecturer. He responsible for teaching
the mapping science courses at Cornell University. His teaching
responsibilities include Geographic Information Systems, Resource Inventory
Methods, Spatial Modeling and Analysis, and the Global Positioning System.
Dr. Lembo's primary research
interests are in the use of advanced information technologies for
geo-processing. |

|
| Chuck Mohler |
|
|
 |
Chuck is a senior research
associate in the department of Crop and Soil Sciences. Since 1986 his
research has been primarily on the ecology of agricultural weeds and
ecological methods of weed management. Most of this work has focused on the
effects of tillage, cultivation, and crop residue on the population dynamics
of annual weeds. |

|
|
Gary Bergstrom |
|
|
 |
Dr Bergstrom's research/extension program
seeks to improve the management of crop diseases affecting food grain and
forage production systems in New York. His educational programs are aimed at
increasing the plant pathology expertise of extension educators and
certified crop advisors, and ultimately, field crop producers. |
