Facility Details

The shared Geomicrobiology analytical facilities consist of four different labs in the Green Earth Sciences Building. Main areas of study are: 1) molecular, bio(geo)chemical, and ecological aspects of the microbial cycling of nitrogen, carbon, and metals in the environment; 2) diversity, distribution, and activity of microorganisms driving greenhouse gas cycling in the ocean and beyond; 3) molecular biomarkers in modern organisms to refine our interpretations of the microbial fossil record.
