Speciation Studies

The Speciation Studies Topic develops state-of-the-art speciation methods for characterization of important constituents in solid and aqueous systems. Speciation methods allow better process-level understanding of natural systems, and enhance predictive capabilities of the mobility and bioavailability of constituents.

Assessing Element Speciation, Bioavailability, and Cycling using Diffusive Gradients in Thin Films (DGT)
Speciation and Isotopic Composition of Sulfide and Sulfate Minerals
Use of Stable Isotopes to Examine Metal Attenuation and Release Processes in a Fluvial Tailings Deposit
