Introduction
My research focuses on optimizing water and nutrient management in agriculture through modeling, remote sensing, and field-based studies. Leveraging these tools, I develop strategies to improve irrigation efficiency, minimize nutrient losses, and enhance crop water productivity. My work provides actionable insights for farmers and policymakers to strengthen resource efficiency, address water scarcity, and adapt to climate variability, ultimately fostering resilient agricultural systems.

Analyzing soil water dynamics is crucial for the advancement of sustainable agriculture, encompassing crop growth management, soil health preservation, and the strategic use of resources. This study assessed the impact of conventional and sod-based crop rotations on water dynamics within the Suwannee River Basin’s unique karst and sandy soil enviro...

Highlights Passive wick lysimeter performance was tested against soil water balance and simulation models under high and perched water table conditions. Passive wick lysimeters overestimated deep drainage as compared to soil water balance and simulation models. Lysimeter data inflated NO3-N leachate estimates, questioning the reliability in similar...

The regional-scale estimation of crop evapotranspiration (ETc) over a heterogeneous surface is an important tool for the decision-makers in managing and allocating water resources. This is especially critical in the arid to semi-arid regions that require supplemental water due to insufficient precipitation, soil moisture, or groundwater. Over the y...

Crop evapotranspiration (ETc) estimates, on a regional scale, hold enormous potential in managing surface and groundwater resources. This is particularly important for the headwater state of Wyoming, which provides water to found major river basins of the US. In this study, METRIC (Mapping evapotranspiration at high resolution with internalized cal...
Thesis
The efficient use of water resources in agriculture and to understand the response of agro-ecosystems to changing environment requires adequate quantification of crop evapotranspiration (ET c; Latent heat flux) and other surface energy balance fluxes [net radiation (R n), soil heat flux (G), and sensible heat flux (H)] both on point and regional sc...
