An upcoming issue of the Journal of Environmental Quality (JEQ) will include a special section titled, “Prediction of Soil Organic Carbon in Agroecosystems under Climate Change.” Hero Gollany, Research Soil Scientist with the USDA-ARS, served as a guest editor for this collection of papers. Gollany, who first became interested in soil carbon while working on her master’s thesis, currently does research using models based on soil management and biogeochemical processes that influence nutrient cycling within the soil-water-plant-air continuum. Gollany responded to questions from CSA News magazine, which have been edited for length and clarity.
