University Libraries Promotion and Tenure Recognition

Richard Charles Stehouwer Associate Professor, Environmental Soil Science

Book Title: Soils and Environmental Quality

Author: Gary Pierzynski, J. Thomas Sims and George Vance

Selection Statement:

This book, authored by three prominent soil scientists, does an excellent job of condensing and distilling years of scientific research and experience in the broad and diverse field of environmental soil science into a highly readable text. The book has served as an excellent resource for me in development of extension educational materials and for project development. It is also a very effective textbook for upper level undergraduate and graduate level coursework in this field.


In addition, two of the authors served as external reviewers of my promotion and tenure dossier. I can only surmise that their reviews were positive since my application for promotion and tenure was successful.
