Influence of urbanization and land use change on the evolution of groundwater and surface water Speleothem geochronology; assessment of speleothems and travertine as paleo-records of global change.
Stable isotope geochemistry, metamorphism and volatile transport in subduction zones, fluid-rock interaction and metasomatism, geochemical cycling, stable chlorine isotope
Dr. Becker's research interests are in geodynamics and seismology with focus on the interactions between mantle convection and surface tectonics. He is fascinated by the inner workings of terrestrial planets, and how…
Vertebrate paleontology, osteology, skeletal anatomy, and systematics of lizards, snakes, and turtles; fossil lizards; Natural History Museum science
Aqueous geochemistry, geomicrobiology, environmental and microbial geochemistry, hydrogeology, characterizing the geologic and hydrologic controls on subsurface microbial growth, metabolism, and community structure,…
Soil biogeochemistry, Calcic soils, Stable isotope geochemistry, Critical zone biogeochemistry: modern calibrations of terrestrial paleoclimate proxies, the relationships between climate and soil chemistry, gas…
Surface water-groundwater interactions with equal emphasis on both hydrodynamic and geologic aspects; integrating hydrogeology, fluid dynamics and land-surface depositional processes.
Dr. Catania's research involves understanding ice sheet and glacier changes both from natural variability and climate forced variability. This involves improving the observational data sets that quantify cyrosphere…
