The Ecohydrology laboratories occupy over 300 m2 of space dedicated to modeling, biogeochemical experimentation, field sampling and environmental analysis. Research is organized into five experimental laboratories and one modeling laboratory. Our facilities allow us to investigate processes across a wide variety of spatio-temporal scales, from molecular interactions to regional biogeochemical cycles.
Learn more about the individual laboratories below. A list of major equipment is available on the Equipment List page.
