Research Area

  1. Method development for non-traditional isotopes measurement using MC-ICPMS.
  2. Geochemistry of rock-water interactions at deep ocean hydrothermal sites and role of hydrothermal fluxes in global geochemical budgets.
  3. Role of weathering and erosion on flux of elements to river, global biogeochemical cycle and climate.
  4. Development and application of paleoclimate proxies/tracers to better understand the deep ocean mineralization, ocean circulation, biogeochemistry, past climate and carbon-cycle perturbations.
  5. Reconstruction of seawater carbonate chemistry and atmospheric CO2 at seasonal to millennial scale.
  6. Use of geochemical approach to understand the impact of ocean acidification on calcifying marine organisms and ocean biogeochemistry.
