Research Interests

Dr. Lamb has been involved in atmospheric pollutant transport and dispersion studies for more than twenty-five years. This has involved a combination of atmospheric tracer field studies and the development, evaluation, and application of a variety of air quality models. Currently, Dr. Lamb is directing the development of a real-time urban air quality forecast system for the Pacific Northwest as well as a project to investigate the effects of global change on regional air quality supported through the EPA STAR grant program. For the forecast system, model evaluation has been expanded through a NASA grant to incorporate satellite air quality measurements into the model evaluation process. Dr. Lamb has also directed the development of a smoke dispersion forecast system for agricultural field burning and a regional windblown dust air quality model for the Columbia Plateau region of eastern Washington. In related work, Dr. Lamb has developed atmospheric tracer instrumentation—portable syringe samplers and real-time continuous tracer analyzers—which have been widely used at WSU and by others to probe the nature of pollutant transport and dispersion over scales ranging from a few meters to hundreds of kilometers. Most recently, Dr. Lamb directed the development of an automated profiling system for SF6 that was successfully deployed in a large Homeland Security urban dispersion study in Oklahoma City and in a number of nighttime drainage flow studies related to carbon respiration in forest canopies.

Dr. Lamb is also involved in research concerning biogenic trace gas emissions and their role in atmospheric chemistry. The EPA Biogenic Emission Inventory System (BEIS) was originally developed under his direction at WSU. Recent studies involve the application of eddy flux and disjunct eddy accumulation methods. Dr. Lamb also directed WSU participation in a significant field program to investigate emissions and air quality in Mexico City. This work includes the first direct VOC flux measurements reported for an urban landscape.

Pullman, WA 99164-6210

dlyoung@wsu.edu

Education

Ph.D. Agricultural Economics, Oregon State University, 1976
B.A. Economics, University of Oregon, 1968

Research Interests

Economics of protecting soil, water, and air quality, Economics of agricultural pest management, Agricultural and resource policy, Risk management in agriculture, and Economics of sustainable agriculture.

Dr. Young’s air quality research has focused on attempting to identify farming systems, which improve air quality without sacrificing farm income. He has also examined the farm characteristics and educational programs which are associated with the adoption of wind erosion control practices.

Technical Support Staff

Past and current Graduate Research Assistantships who have contributed to this project include Jeff Janosky, Louis Juergens, Mani Upadhyay, and Andrey Zaikin.

Research Interests

Research includes agronomic, biological, and economic studies on the control of weed in small-grain conservation tillage production systems and the development of integrated systems of pest management for wheat production areas of the Pacific Northwest. Research focuses on reducing farmer dependence on pesticides, developing means for managing and conserving the Nation’s soil, and water resources, and maintaining and increasing the productivity and quality of crop plants. Weed research focuses on Russian thistle, jointed goatgrass, downy brome, and herbicide resistance.
