Professor of Pedology and Soil-Environmental Science
Ph.D., Virginia Tech, 1990
Dr. Stolt's interests are in the application of soil science to various environmental issues and problems. Examples include: the effects of land use change on the terrestrial and subtidal environments; relationships between tidal and riparian soils and water quality, restoration, and land management; the role of soils in the treatment of domestic wastewater; and the processes operating in hydric soils, subaqueous soils, and soils with aquic conditions. His research has focused micro and macro-morphology of carbon forms in riparian soils, variability in carbon storage among soil types varying by drainage classes, fate and transport of N and P in shallow-narrow drainfields, distribution of subaqueous soils in estuaries, and soil morphology-aquic condition relationships.
