Ed Nater's interest in biogeochemistry has led him to study the serious problem of environmental mercury pollution. Dr. Nater, along with his graduate and undergraduate colleagues, are actively engaged in a number of mercury-related research projects. These diverse projects, which span the terrestrial, aquatic, and atmospheric realms, draw upon-- and indeed advance-- state-of-the-art mercury analytical and experimental techniques. For more information on these projects, the researchers involved, the facilities and equipment they use, or background information on mercury pollution and research, click on one of the icons below.
For the insatiably curious folks in the audience, we've supplied a field guide to the doo-dads. This document explains how some of the objects pictured on these pages are used in our laboratory.
