Computing: Spokane cluster

The Spokane cluster is dedicated to molecular and thermodynamic modeling areas as applied to real-world geochemical problems and applications in solution, at mineral surfaces, and in the solid state.

Scientific consultants with scientific expertise and established publication records are available to collaborate on research topics such as molecular and crystalline structures, energetics, and thermodynamics of systems as well as kinetics for certain kinds of elementary chemical reactions, such as electron transfer. Calculations can be performed as either a stand-alone activity or in support of experimental or spectroscopic measurements. Thermodynamic and kinetic geochemical codes are available as well as multidimensional geochemical reaction/transport codes for numerical experiments or simulation of intermediate-scale flow and transport experiments.
