Dr. Alex Cabral

Research Fellow (Geology)

 


I specialize in studying carbon and nutrient biogeochemistry across a diverse range of aquatic ecosystems. My research integrates various analytical techniques, geochemical tracers, and automated instrumentation to investigate groundwater pathways, surface water fluxes and greenhouse gas emissions.
