Abstract

Microbe-mineral-fluid interactions: Case studies from natural environments, industrial problems and arctic biogeochemical processes 

Presented by Dr. Jenine McCutcheon, School of Earth and Environment, University of Leeds

Abstract: Microbial processes influence geochemical reaction pathways in a range of natural and engineered environments. These processes often result in the precipitation, alteration, or dissolution of mineral phases, thereby also altering the chemistry of the surrounding fluid.

On Monday, February 4^th, the Ecohydrology Research Group hosted the 7^th annual World Wetlands Day Research Symposium at the University of Waterloo.

Join Dr. Eric Roden, from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, as he presents "Rust Never Sleeps: Biogeochemical and Genomic Aspects of Microbial Fe Redox Cycling".
