Biogeochemistry Lab
Welcome to the Biogeochemistry Lab
Our current research includes:
- Early diagenesis in modern marine sediments and it's impact on primary depositional signals
- Subsurface metal cycling and it's implication for the (ultra) deep biosphere
- Investigation and application of paleoproxies with emphasize on redox-sensitive trace metals
- Geochemical cycles of methane, iron, sulfur, and related trace metals in active margin environments
We have high-quality instruments and equipment in our lab
We also have sample preparation
along with miscellaneous equipment
- PicoTrace acid sample digestion system (temperature and pressure digestion)
- Ductless polypropylene fume hood (Patriot;Airclean Systems)
- Ductless laminar fume hood (AC600;Airclean Systems)
- Water purification system (MilliQ)
- Acid purification system (Savillex Corporation)
- Analytical Balance (Mettler Toledo) five digit (XSE205DU), and three digit (MS1003)
