About Aaron Lee M. Daigh

I am a vadose zone hydrologist and soil physicist with research interests in the transfer of energy and matter in natural porous media, sources of spatial and temporal variabilty, ecohydrology, agronomy, water management, contamination and remediation, soil reclamation, and terrestrial restoration.  I approach these topics across the spectrum of basic fundamental science to applied engineering.

I currently direct research on vadose zone water quality and the fate and transport of nutrients and chemicals of agricultural landscapes overlying major aquifers. My research and teaching programs are housed in UNL's Department of Agronomy & Horticulture (tenure home) and Department of Biological Systems Engineering. I also hold a Courtesy Associate Professor appointment at the University of Nebraska Medical Center within the College of Public Health.

I work with local governments, international non-profits, academic communities, and a diversity of public stakeholders to conduct and translate science for our communities.

My past research projects have included:
- remote sensing of soil moisture
- conditioning factors for slope failures
- plant survival in storm-water systems
- water quality links to the soil microbiome
- temporal and spatial dynamics of soil microbial communities
- hydrophobic capillary barriers
- hexacyanoferrate effects on soil and plants
- brine spill remediation
- coal mine reclamation
- subsurface drainage and water quality
- salinity and sodicity
- conservation tillage
- biofuel cropping systems
- crop diversity on soil water
- economic costs of deep wheel-traffic compaction
- carbon dioxide emissions from soils
- the fate and transport of nutrients and heavy metals in pastureland vadose zones
- nitrogen fate dynamics in rice floodwaters
- glyphosate on mycorrhizae in crop roots
