The Simpson Research group conducts
research in the area
of environmental
organic geochemistry. We use advanced analytical
methods to study and understand environmental and geochemical
processes at the molecular-level.
We use Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)
and Mass Spectrometry (MS) techniques to elucidate the structure and
environmental reactivity of organic matter in soils, sediments, and
water. Understanding the structural information allows us to study how
organic matter interacts with problematic, environmental contaminants
and the transformation of organic matter compounds in soil and
sedimentary environments.
