Graduate students:
Malaiyka Cincotta, MS
Malayika is working on her MS project or dissolved organic matter characteristics in soil solution at Sleepers River (Project: “Soil Aggregates: What role do they play in the generation of dissolved organic carbon?”). |
Jesse Armfield, MS
Jesse is working on his MS project on weathering in acid impacted environments (Project: “Expanding the concept of the Critical Zone from Terrestrial to Planetary Systems: What can we learn about weathering on Mars?”). |
Max Landsman-Gerjoi, MS
Max investigates fluorescence derived proxies for bioavailability in a combined lab and field study. He gets samples from various sites in Vermont (including EPSCoR BREE sites) and the Reynolds Creek CZO in Idaho. |

Alyson Hampsch, Grad Student
Allison successfully defended her MS thesis “Using aqueous soil extracts to study organic matter leaching from soils of different river corridor land cover in Vermont”. |
Pat Sullivan: Pat assisted with aqueous soil extracts and analysis over the summer 2015.
|
Ingrid Evans: Ingrid finished her project "The impact of solution composition of the fluorescence properties of dissolved organic matter extracted from stream bank soils" .
|
David Jaeger: David tested the importance of moist vs. dry soil sampling on DOM quality in the lab in 2015.

Mae Kemsley, Intern
Mae worked on sampling and processing soils from the Mad River Valley during her second summer internship (2014 and 2015). |
Christine Loughlin
Christine determined carbon and metal content as well as water extractable organic matter characteristics on wetland soils in 2013/2014. |
