Contaminant Fate and Transport
Our research and teaching mission is to advance the understanding of subsurface fate and transport of contaminants, particularly in the vadose zone, and to apply this knowledge to improve environmental management and clean-up of soil and subsurface systems.
Our specific research areas and expertise comprise the following: (1) characterization of water flow and solute transport in the vadose zone, (2) colloid-facilitated transport of contaminants through the vadose zone, (3) modeling sorption kinetics and transport of organic chemicals, colloids, and viruses, (4) characterization and evaluation of dye tracers for vadose zone hydrology, (5) characterization of subsurface minerals and colloids, (6) sorption of organic and inorganic contaminants to soil particles, (7) the role of mineral weathering in contaminant phytoavailability.
