地球与大气科学哲学博士-生物地球化学

地球化学小组的研究重点是淡水和海洋环境的水生系统中的低温和低压地球化学。我们的研究目标是表征和理解调节无机和有机化合物分布的生物地球化学过程，以确定它们在过去，现在和将来对环境的影响。地球化学测量也用于诸如珊瑚，深海沉积物和洞穴沉积物的地质和生物档案中，以调查海洋和气候历史。我们的一些研究是基于现场的，包括海洋巡游，沿海和深海环境中的原位测量以及对原始或受污染的河流，湖泊，含水层和沿海沼泽地的调查。基于实验室的研究调查了矿物质，微生物和溶解的化学物质之间的相互作用，以表征介导其溶解和沉淀的过程。
Research in the Geochemistry group focuses on low temperature and low pressure geochemistry in aquatic systems, both freshwater and marine environments. Our research objectives are to characterize and understand the biogeochemical processes that regulate the distribution of inorganic and organic compounds to determine their impact on the environment in the past, the present, and the future. Geochemical measurements are also used in geological and biological archives such as corals, deep sea sediments, and cave deposits to investigate ocean and climate history. Some of our research is field-based and includes oceanic cruises, in situ measurements in coastal and deep-sea environments, and investigations in pristine or polluted rivers, lakes, aquifers, and coastal marshes. Laboratory-based research investigates interactions between minerals, microorganisms, and dissolved chemicals to characterize the processes that mediate their dissolution and precipitation.
