Very excited to announce that the Department of Geosciences has been awarded an instrumentation grant from the NSF to purchase an LA-ICPMS (and a Mars digestor!), a project that I am a co-PI on. For our hydrologic interests, we hope to use this equipment to start to look at heavy metal distributions in Atlanta streams to understand the impact of historical industrial uses and ongoing environmental justice issues around known contamination sites that are not being addressed, such as the Tift Hazardous Waste Site at the headwaters of the South River.
