Research
-
Environmental Biogeochemistry Laboratory (EBL) focuses research in following areas:
- a) Biogeochemical processes that regulate the source, sink, transformation and internal cycling of phosphorus in terrestrial and coastal environment
- b) Redox controlled and coupled biogeochemical cycling of iron and phosphorus
- c) Mineralization at chemical and biological interfaces
