About me 關於我
Dr. Julie Howe is Associate Department Head for Undergraduate Programs and Professor of Soil Chemistry and Fertility at Texas A&M University. She received a PhD from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and MS and BS degrees from Texas A&M University. With her undergraduate degree in Bioenvironmental Sciences and graduate degrees in Soil Chemistry, her research has focused on cycling and fate of nutrients and carbon at various levels ranging from fundamental complexation reactions to field-scale processes. She divides her research focus three areas: impact of agricultural management on nutrients and soil carbon, development and efficacy of nutrient amendments, and processes that improve soil health. She also works to transform Martian and lunar soil precursors to support plant growth. She teaches a large enrollment introductory soil science course and a graduate level advanced soil chemistry and fertility course. She is a Fellow in the Soil Science Society of America. She also serves on the Scientific Advisory Board for the Soil Health Institute. She has also recently served as Chair of the Soil Fertility and Plant Nutrition Division of the Soil Science Society of America and of the Soil and Environmental Quality Community of the American Society of Agronomy.
