Research
Previous research was conducted in the areas of
air quality (dust emission and microbial sampling in feedlot cattle and pigs),
environmental physiology (heat stress in cattle and pigs), and ethology.
My current research activities are in two main
areas:
- Air quality research related
to livestock production, especially quantification of
ammonia, dust, and odor emissions in dairies, beef feedlots,
and poultry operations. Main objective is to help
establishing environmentally benign livestock systems.
- Environmental physiology
research, focusing on effects of air emissions on animal
health and welfare.
