When UW professor David Catling from the department of Earth and space sciences (ESS) was named a 2026 geochemistry fellow, ...

Stable isotope ratio mass spectrometer (IRMS) interfaced to an elemental analyzer (EA) and a gas chromatograph (GC) via a combustion interface; EA/GC-C-IRMS Gas chromatograph with a flame ionization ...

We strive to unravel the mechanisms driving biological adaptation to environmental stressors through chemical modifications of cell membrane lipids (biomarkers). We use this knowledge to reconstruct ...

In a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence, one innovator is applying this transformative force not just to algorithms and screens—but to the very ground beneath our feet. Meet Denis ...

The study of the organic geochemistry of Domanik rocks has significantly enhanced our understanding of both the genesis and transformation of hydrocarbons in sedimentary basins. These rocks, which ...

You might say that geochemistry can make a mountain out of a molecular molehill. The atomic-level descriptions of the chemical behavior of mineral surfaces and their interactions with aqueous ...

Isotope geochemistry investigates the distribution and variations in the relative abundances of isotopes—both stable and radiogenic—in natural materials. By utilising high‐precision analytical ...

The Petrology - Isotope Geochemistry group in the department studies a wide range of petrologic problems. Among these are: Archean Crustal Evolution-The mountain ranges of Wyoming expose some of the ...

Understanding the chemical processes affecting minerals, water, and air at high temperatures and pressures, typically deep below earth's surface. Specializing in high-precision isotopic analyses, ...

Hawaii and Iceland are tourist hotspots — and it turns out they’re popular with geochemical travelers as well. A new Yale study suggests that throughout Earth’s history, natural processes propelled ...

The Geology and Geophysics Department at the University of Wyoming supports state-of-the-art instrumentation and laboratories for chemical analysis of aqueous and some solid materials. Quantitative, ...
