Meyer Bohn

Meyer Bohn at Dinesen Prairie

Meyer Bohn earned a PhD in soil science with a focus in digital soil mapping (DSM) in August 2022. He specializes enhancing soil maps to the levels of detail and accuracy necessary for precision modeling and decision making. His research focuses on mapping soil properties inherently linked to the support of sustainable agricultural production. More recently, he has focused on refining the detection of changes in soil organic carbon stocks, a vital metric for assessing the impact of land management and climate change. Additionally, his research agenda includes the improvement of the validation and estimation of uncertainty in digital soil mapping, which is essential for enhancing the reliability and precision of our soil mapping efforts.

Born and raised in North Dakota, Meyer completed his undergraduate studies at Dickinson State University where he completed his B.S. in Environmental Science with a chemistry and earth science emphasis. Meyer is a former student of ISU soil science alum, Dr. Eric Brevik, who developed Meyer’s educational background primarily within the natural earth sciences. Meyer’s graduate work at North Dakota State University under a former NRCS Soil Survey field scientist, Dr. David Hopkins, led Meyer to his primary research focuses in the realm of the Pedology. He has had extensive field experience in glaciated prairie landscapes, with applications in both traditional soil survey and modern digital soil mapping techniques.
