Xi Zhang
Assistant Professor of Soil Physics, Louisiana State University
My research efforts center on better understanding the principles of water flow and solute transport in the soil through field experiments and modeling. I am interested in exploring the interactions between climate, vegetation and soil hydrologic processes across different spatial and temporal scales, and their implications for sustainable use and management of soil and water resources.
