Carl F. Jordan is Professor Emeritus, Odum School of Ecology, University of Georgia.[1][2]

Biography

Carl F. Jordan grew up Maine during the 1940s and early 50s . He enjoyed the wilderness there, especially canoe trips on the Allagash and Penobscot rivers, and noticed cutting of the spruce-fir forest by the pulp and paper companies. In 1953, he enrolled at the University of Michigan and decided to major in forestry, because he believed that it could help him understand deforestation. In 1962 he enrolled in graduate school at Rutgers University where the Botany Dept. had a program in Plant Ecology; it was during this time that Carl was introduced to the concept of nutrient cycling which then led to his scientific future.

In 1966, once he acquired his Ph.D. he joined H.T. Odum in an Atomic Energy Commission project in Puerto Rico and applied the cycling concept to that of radioactive isotopes in the rain forest, for which he was awarded the Ecological Society of America’s Mercer award. In 1969, Carl moved to Argonne National Laboratory where he continued to study radioactive pollution from nuclear power plants around Lake Michigan. In 1974, he had the opportunity to lead a project for the University of Georgia near San Carlos de Rio Negro in the Amazon Region of Venezuela. Carl during this time focused on determining how forests of the Amazon survived on the nutrient-poor soils and could even flourish and support shifting cultivation. His research uncovered that nutrients from decaying organic matter on the forest floor recycled directly back into the roots of living trees. As long as the cycle was intact, the forest flourished, but destruction by agriculture or grazing cut the cycle and destroyed productive capacity. His research in this domain is well documented.

In 1980, Carl returned to the University in Athens Georgia. He began taking graduate students, while continuing his research in San Carlos, and expanding it to Brazil, Ecuador, and Thailand. Most notable projects were studies in Brazil of the Jari Plantation in Brazil, a pulp plantation of hundreds of square miles, and rehabilitation of the forests around the Carajas mines in central Amazonia. The primary concentration in all these studies was the importance of preserving the soil organic matter to keep the nutrient cycle intact and functioning.

In 1993, Carl acquired a farm near Athens Georgia that had once been part of a pre-Civil cotton plantation and began research on more sustainable ways to manage organic agriculture. He originated the first University course in Georgia on organic farming, and opened the farm to tours and classes interested in sustainable agriculture. By 2017, more than 20,000 students had toured the farm.

Carl retired as Professor Emeritus in 2009. He published 9 books, 140 professional papers, and mentored 35 graduate students. Since retirement he has continued to manage Spring Valley EcoFarms where Ecology classes continue for laboratory exercises.
