My research focus is solving fundamental issues regarding elemental speciation in soils, sediments, water, plants, and waste materials via advanced, molecular-level spectroscopic techniques coupled with macroscopic kinetic and thermodynamic laboratory studies and field research to elucidate reaction mechanisms that influence fate, transport, reactivity, mobility, bioavailability, and toxicity of elements in the natural environment leading to effective and economical remediation/use strategies.
