Microscale and spectroscopic investigations in geochemical and microbiological systems


EMSL Project ID
25692

Abstract

Apply experimental manipulation and field investigations to understanding the behavior of selected chemical and microbial components in natural systems. The research is targeted towards compounds and environmental systems of interest for understanding the migration and attenuation of contaminants, and includes several multi-disciplinary DOE-funded projects. The interpretation of experimental results hinges on applications of microscopy and spectroscopy, at EMSL and in collaboration with other institutions. The EMSL facilities requested reside in the following Resource Areas: INS, ESB, and CPCS.
