Project 1: Natural pollutant remediation using wetlands
Project 1: Natural pollutant remediation using wetlands
Objectives: quantify the uptake of pharmaceuticals, plasticizers, and other contaminants by wetland plants, determine the fate and ultimate removal of contaminants in a wetland's sediments, plants, water, and air
Project 2: Plasticizer migration from food packaging
Project 2: Plasticizer migration from food packaging
Objectives: quantify contaminant migration from "green" food packaging into food and beverages contained within them
Project 3: Air quality studies
Project 3: Air quality studies
Current research questions: 1) What is the seasonal inhalation exposure rate of particulate-bound phthalates in Forest Grove air?, 2) What seasonal variations of the heavy metals copper, nickel, lead, and zinc are present in particulate matter in Forest Grove, Oregon?, and 3)How useful are black carbon detectors in identifying markers of diesel in particulate matter?
