Stephen P. Faulkner Stephen P. Faulkner, Assistant Professor Wetland Biogeochemistry Institute Louisiana State University. I am particularly interested in the biogeochemical processes affecting wetland soil morphology, plant community composition, and water quality functions.
Current research focuses on the functional assessment of natural and created wetlands.
Additional research projects are investigating carbon-based field indicators of hydric soils and carbon dynamics in the Atchafalaya Delta. Hydrology of Longleaf Pine Savannahs, Lake Ramsay, Louisiana. Phosphorus Chemistry of Natural and Created Wetlands, Atchafalaya Delta, Louisiana. Carbon Dynamics in the Atchafalaya Delta, Louisiana. Comparison of Water Quality Functions and Structural Characteristics Between Restored and Natural Bottomland Hardwood Wetlands.
