Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Richard P Wolkowski"
- Richard P Wolkowski's research primarily focuses on the environmental impacts of agricultural practices, particularly how soil amendments like flue gas desulfurization (FGD) gypsum can reduce water-soluble phosphorus runoff, thereby improving water quality in sensitive ecosystems such as the Great Lakes.
- His meta-analysis incorporating multiple research sites across the USA highlights the beneficial effects of gypsum on both crop yields and the chemistry of soil, plant tissues, and vadose water, emphasizing the need for more comprehensive understanding of its applications under varying climatic and soil conditions.
- Additional studies conducted by Wolkowski address other agricultural challenges, including the impact of potassium availability on soybean aphid population dynamics and the management of municipal solid waste compost, indicating a broader interest in sustainable agricultural practices and nutrient management.
