Understanding the Geosphere.
Building a Sustainable Future.
We investigate the transport and transformation of contaminants in soils, groundwater, and rivers, and develop approaches to environmental remediation and risk assessment. By integrating field investigations, laboratory experiments, and numerical simulations, we seek practical solutions to complex environmental challenges.

Research Areas
Understanding environmental processes, reducing contamination, and supporting evidence-based decisions.
Micro- and Nanoplastics
Adsorption, aggregation, and transport in rivers, soils, and groundwater.
PFAS and Environmental Risk
Environmental fate, multi-pathway exposure, and uncertainty in risk assessment.
Environmental Remediation
Use of microorganisms, natural materials, and industrial by-products to treat contaminated water and soil.
Acidic Rivers and Trace Metals
Behavior and environmental impacts of metal(loid)s in mine-affected river systems.
CO₂ Uptake and Mineral Carbonation
Soil CO₂ uptake, mineral carbonation, and beneficial use of secondary resources.
Data-driven Assessment and Modeling
Transport–reaction simulation and quantitative evaluation of contamination and risk.
We connect experimental evidence with quantitative models to inform environmental remediation, monitoring, and risk management.
