CRSP-funded studies in pond dynamics will be conducted under the Tenth
Work Plan. The first, “Reaction of liming materials in pond bottom
soils,” involves collaboration Boyd and Wood at Auburn with four
new principal investigators (PIs) from two new institutions—the
University of the North, South Africa, and Embrapa Meio Ambiente,
Brazil. This investigation will examine the influence of lime application
methods on the exchange of substances between and within soil and
water. The second investigation, “Effects of pond age on bottom
soil quality,” is designed to yield information and recommendations
on liming and pond bottom drying practices. 
Koos Prinsloo, Director of the Aquaculture Research Unit at
the University of the North in South Africa, is a new addition
to the CRSP. He will be working side-by-side with old-timers Claude
Boyd and Wes Wood, along with other newcomers Andrew Scholtz,
Johan Theron, and Julio de Queiroz on the Tenth Work Plan project
titled, “Reaction of liming materials in pond bottom soils.”
Prinsloo is a well-established and recognized researcher in the
fields of freshwater ecology, aquaculture, and organic farming,
having produced close to 120 publications and reports.
Johan Theron, researcher in the Aquaculture Research Unit at
the University of the North, specializes in extension work. His
recent publications include those on integrated agriculture-aquaculture
systems, biofiltration, feed comparisons, and nutritional value
of fish.
Andrew Scholtz is also from the Aquaculture Research Unit at
the University of the North. Scholtz brings 16 years of experience
in the aquaculture field to the CRSP. His current position as
Senior Technician will enable him to be an important contributor
during the Tenth Work Plan.
Julio Ferraz de Queiroz rejoins the CRSP community, this time
as the Coordinator of Embrapa Meio Ambiente’s National Program
for Research and Development in Aquaculture, located in the state
of São Paulo, Brazil. After receiving his Ph.D. on crustacean
nutrition and reproduction from the State University of Ghent,
Belgium, Queiroz worked on a CRSP project while a postdoctoral
researcher at Auburn University with Claude Boyd. After his three
years away from the CRSP, we welcome Queiroz back, this time as
a Host Country PI.
