Title: Podzol
Content: Podzol In soil science, Podzols are the typical soils of coniferous or boreal forests. They are also the typical soils of eucalypt forests and heathlands in southern Australia. In Western Europe, Podzols develop on heathland, which is often a construct of human interference through grazing and burning. In some British moorlands with Podzolic soils, Cambisols are preserved under Bronze Age barrows (Dimbleby, 1962). Podzol means "under-ash", and is derived from the Russian под (pod) + зола́ (zola); the full form is "подзо́листая по́чва" (podzolistaya pochva, "under-ashed soil"). The term was introduced in 1875 by Vasily Dokuchaev. It refers to the

Title: G. K. Podila
Content: in fast growing trees, especially poplar and aspen. He has advocated prospective use of fast growing trees and grasses as an alternative to corn sources for producing ethanol. He was also the coordinator of an international consortium of institutions that has deciphered the genome of mycorrhizal fungus, a fungus whose symbiotic properties allow trees to generate large amounts of biomass. G. K. Podila received a B.Sc. degree from Nagarjuna University in India. He obtained a master's degree from Louisiana State University in 1983 and a PhD in molecular biology from Indiana State University in 1987. Prior to joining the University

Title: G. K. Podila
Content: G. K. Podila Gopi K. Podila (September 14, 1957 – February 12, 2010) was an Indian American biologist who was a faculty member at the University of Alabama in Huntsville. He was one of three faculty members killed in a shooting at the university on February 12, 2010. He was chairperson of the university's department of biological sciences, with a particular interest in the ecology of "Populus" and their mycorrhizal symbionts. He listed his research interests as "engineering tree biomass for bioenergy, functional genomics of plant-microbe interactions, plant molecular biology and biotechnology". In particular, Podila studied genes that regulate growth

Title: Podzol
Content: common experience of Russian peasants of plowing up an apparent under-layer of ash (leached or E horizon) during first plowing of a virgin soil of this type. Podzols are able to occur on almost any parent material but generally derive from either quartz-rich sands and sandstones or sedimentary debris from magmatic rocks, provided there is high precipitation. Most Podzols are poor soils for agriculture due to the sandy portion, resulting in a low level of moisture and nutrients. Some are sandy and excessively drained. Others have shallow rooting zones and poor drainage due to subsoil cementation. A low pH further

Question: What kind of a person might study a podzol?
Answer: A soil scientist
