Dr. R.R. DUNCAN
|
|
Dr.
Ron Duncan is a Professor of Turfgrass
Breeding (Paspalum, Tall Fescue)
and Stress Physiology, Crop and
Soil Sciences Department, University
of Georgia, Griffin.
|
Dr. Duncan's research
emphasis is on developing turfgrasses with
enhanced tolerance to abiotic, edaphic and
biotic stresses, along with improved compatibility
with the environment and minimal maintenance
requirements.
Dr. ROBERT. N. CARROW
|
|
Dr.
Robert N. Carrow is a Professor
of Turfgrass Stress Physiology
and Soil Stresses, Crop and Soil
Sciences Department, University
of Georgia, Griffin.
|
His research emphasis
is on turfgrass as affected by environmental,
traffic (wear and soil compaction), and
edaphic (soil chemical and physical) stresses.
His degrees are from Michigan State University
(B.S. in 1968; Ph.D. in 1972). He has held
research and teaching position in turfgrass
science at the University of Massachusetts
(1972-1976) and University of Georgia(1984-present).
Dr. Carrow has concentrated his research
position at the (a) soil chemical (nutrients,
acidity, salinity) and soil physical (compaction,
oxygen, drought) stresses, and (b) traffic
stresses (compaction, wear) on turfgrass.
He has served in many professional turfgrass
manager and scientific society responsibilities.
Dr. Carrow is a Fellow of the American Society
of Agronomy and is Vice President of the
International Turfgrass Society.
