The focus of my research program is the development of tools that can be used in the management of environments contaminated by inorganic substances such as cadmium (Cd), zinc (Zn), and mercury (Hg). Contaminated environments, particularly highly contaminated sites, tend to be complex, often resulting from multiple sources of emission. Because it isn’t realistic or possible to eliminate all sources of potentially toxic metals, determining the relative contributions of various sources is necessary. This approach is called source partitioning and it is central to my research program.

我研究项目的重点是开发可用于管理受镉（Cd）、锌（Zn）和汞（Hg）等无机物质污染的环境的工具。受污染的环境，特别是高度污染的场地，往往是复杂的，往往是由多种排放源造成的。由于消除潜在有毒金属的所有来源是不现实或不可能的，因此有必要确定各种来源的相对贡献。这种方法被称为源分区，它是我的研究计划的核心。
