Session Description: Dr. Willard Lindsay was a pioneer in soil chemistry. His doctoral mentor was Michael Peech at Cornell University, one of the cornerstones of soil chemistry in the mid-20th century. From the 1950s through the 1990s, Lindsay broke new ground in the areas of micronutrient chemistry, developing new soil tests, and particularly his work in the application of chemical equilibrium principles to soils. In this topical session, we are soliciting submissions concerning historical research, ground-breaking approaches, and Lindsay-inspired current research.
