The chemistry and isotope chemistry of natural materials is highly indicative of provenance and process throughout geological history. Our studies range in time from the earliest solar system through to processes that are actively taking place today, and in scope from planetary systems to individual molecules. Active areas of research centre on planetary studies, metamorphic and igneous geochem...

Like many elements, fluorine (which generally occurs in nature as fluoride) is beneficial to human health in trace amounts, but can be toxic in excess. The links between low intakes of fluoride and dental protection are well known; however, fluoride is a powerful calcium-seeking element and can interfere with the calcified structure of bones and teeth in the human body at higher concentrations ...

This document describes a conceptual model for selenium cycling in the Great Salt Lake.

To understand the Hydro-Geochemistry of urban and semi urban areas of Karachi, located in an arid region of Pakistan, various physico-chemical parameters were investigated. Only continuously pumped productive deep and shallow wells and tube wells were chosen for the analysis for their best ecological functions including drinking, domestic, industrial and agricultural activities. Multivariate st...

As the world's urban population continues to grow, it becomes increasingly imperative to understand the dynamic interactions between human activities and the urban environment. The development of urban environmental geochemistry has yielded a significant volume of scientific information about geochemical phenomena found uniquely in the urban environment, such as the distribution, dispersion, an...

The 9th national conference on applied geochemistry in China will be held Chengdu, Sichuan province, October 2023, hosted by the committee of geochemistry, Chinese Society for Mineralogy, Petrology and Geochemistry (CSMPG) [...]
