Jaehoon Lee, Assistant Professor Biosystems Engineering & Soil Science Annual Performance Period: January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2006 A. SUMMARY AND IMPACTS. 1. Summary. Provide an overall summary (500 words or less) of your accomplishments during the reporting period. My appointment is 80% research and 20% teaching. During the reporting period, major accomplishments include 1) one 3-credit course taught, 2) advised two graduate students (one doctoral student finished), 3) three refereed professional journal articles, 4) one invited abstract and presentation in the national scientific conference, 5) one external grant was funded ($90,000), and 6) served on committees for five graduate students. Three internal research projects are developed with various faculty members in the univerisity. One multi-institutional research project is also developed to examine fate and transport of contaminants such as antibiotics and endocrine disrupting chemicals in soil. A comprehensive teaching peer review was done this year. Evaluation and comments were very good and positive. 2. Impacts. List up to three significant impacts of your program. Impact statements should be one to three sentences and should be written in a way that would be meaningful to the public. Current methods for measuring soil properties and water and chemical movement in soil require extensive subsoil sampling or expensive field instrumentation such as tile drains ($10,000/ha) and lysimeters ($5,000 - $20,000/unit). Our improved heat-pulse probe costs less than $3,000 for monitoring an hectare field. The new probe is also 50% more accurate than a current method for prediction of chemical distributions in soil. The improved heat-pulse probe will minimize soil heterogeneity effects and provide more accurate measurements for agricultural and environmental monitoring. B. PROJECTS AND PROGRAMS (EXTENSION, RESEARCH AND TEACHING). As applicable, list title, names of participants (PIs, Leaders, Co-PIs, Co-leaders, Collaborators etc.), project number, sponsor, your role ( leader/co-leader/collaborator) and your percent effort on the project as stated in the project description or document. - Fate and transport of bioreactive chemicals in soil (J. Lee, M. Essington), W-1188, leader, 30% - Development and evaluation of a mechanistic-stochastic method for field-scale solute transport prediction (J. Lee), W-1188, CSREES, leader, 20% - Soil and plant analysis using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy. (J. Lee and N. Eash), Co-leader, Rural Development Administration of Korea, 20% - Development and evaluation of a heat-pulse probe for simultaneous measurement of water flow and soil properties (J. Lee), leader, 20% - Non-point source tracking using rare soil element analysis (M. Essington, F.R. Walker, and J. Lee), Co-leader, 10% C. INSTRUCTION, TEACHING AND EXTENSION EDUCATION.
