I am an isotope geochemist with interests in understanding generation, migration, and surface expression ofnatural (geologic) hydrogen.
My current research focuses on (1) connecting surface measurements of hydrogen and associated gases to abiotic and biotic processes occurring in the subsurface, (2) usingisotopic compositions of environmental and experimentally generated hydrogen as fingerprints of generation mechanisms, and (3) clumped-isotope and triple oxygen isotope measurements of carbonates, with a focus on diagenetic alteration in deep ocean cores.
