  • ​​As an environmental biogeochemist and mineralogist I take a strong interdisciplinary approach to study low temperature environmental terrestrial and aquatic processes by combining experimental and field approaches.
  • My research group aims to elucidate how the geosphere, biosphere and hydrosphere interact to shape the Earth’s terrestrial surface, now often termed the Critical Zone (CZ).
  • Research projects in my group include various CZ processes such as rock weathering and interactions between soils and streams.

+++ NEWS +++ 
  • In space: we visited the Johnson Space Center in Houston to talk with Liz Rampe about weathering on Mars (holding a piece of the Moon on the left)!
  • In school: I got to measure pH with the kids of the sustainability academy in Burlington. They know a ton about land and water!
  • On TV: our work in Vermonts watersheds as part of the EPSCoR project is featured in a very cool VT-PBS documentary called "Saving our Waters". You can find it here (2016/2017).
  • On the radio: I had the great pleasure to chat with Keith Pannell from Science Studio, a radio show featuring the "ever progressing world of science". Our conversation will be up soon here (2017).
  • In the news: "Catalina's rock: Life's foundation", you can find the article on the south western Critical Zone from the Arizona Daily Star here (2012).
  • In the news: "Living in, discovering the Critical Zone". you can find the article on the Critical Zone from the AZ Daily Star here  (2010).
