Dr. Jim Walworth
After 22 years at the University of Arizona and serving as Associate Department Head for 3½ years, I will move to part-time on July 1st.
With over 35 years of experience working with crops and soils in all corners of the United States, plus the Arctic and Antarctic, I specialize in the behavior and management of nutrients, salts, and water in soil.
I have taught ENVS courses such as Sustainable Management of Arid Lands and Soil Fertility and Plant Nutrition.
Just a few highlights include working on pecans, turfgrass, vegetables, and field crops in the desert southwest for 18 years, conducting research on zinc, nitrogen, phosphorus, nickel, and manganese nutrition; soil water and salinity management; and remediation of cold-region petroleum contaminated soils.
