The power of stable carbon isotope geochemistry lies in deciphering reactions controlling the dynamic cycling, distribution, and fate of carbon compounds in the Earth and Environment. This is the uniting theme of my research on the Earths subsurface waters exploring the frontiers in carbon cycling in both ancient fracture waters kilometers deep in the Earths crust where water-rock reactions support chemoautotrophic microbial communities; and investigating contaminant bioremediation in near surface groundwaters. My research addresses key themes in two areas of the University of Torontos Strategic Research Plan: EXPLORE: Our Place in the Universe and SUSTAIN: Humanity and the Environment

稳定碳同位素地球化学的力量在于破译控制碳化合物在地球和环境中的动态循环、分布和命运的反应。这是我研究地球地下水域的共同主题，探索在地壳深处几公里深的古老裂隙水域中碳循环的前沿，那里的水-岩石反应支持化学自养微生物群落；以及调查近地表地下水中的污染物生物修复。我的研究涉及多伦多大学战略研究计划的两个领域的关键主题：探索：我们在宇宙中的位置和可持续：人类与环境
