Research interests

  • Using organic, inorganic and radionuclide species as tracers of environmental processes
  • Understanding the behaviour of pollutants in the environment
  • Remediation of environmental contaminants
  • Environmental analytical chemistry

My research and teaching interests comfortably encompass organic, inorganic and radionuclide geochemistry, focusing on using carbon isotopes, inorganic isotopes and radioisotopes as biogeochemical tracers in the environment.

Current Research

LoRISE : Long-lived Radionuclides in the Surface Environment - Mechanistic Studies of Speciation, Environmental Transport and Transfer. 

This is a NERC consortium project consisting of seven universities, the Scottish Association for Marine Science and the UK’s synchrotron, Diamond Light Source.  The project will characterise biogeochemical, biological and radiological conditions at four 'natural laboratories' that contain elevated levels of these radionuclides from man-made and natural sources, spanning both onshore and offshore locations in the UK.

Understanding the persistence, transformation and fate of CIPC in commercial potato stores to help guard against cross-contamination.

This research, funded by the Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board – Potatoes, focuses on understanding the germination and cross contamination problems brought about by CIPC residues in potato stores.  The research will have significant cross-division impact for Potatoes, Horticulture and Cereals and Oilseeds and will deliver innovative solutions with practical benefits to the AHDB and the industry as a whole.

Additional information

Brief Biography

I have a BSc (Hons, Environmental Chemistry) and PhD (Chemistry) from the University of Glasgow.  My early research spanned the topics of natural attenuation and phytoremediation of petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated soils, potential transfer into the human food chain of toxic and allergenic metals derived from vehicle exhaust emissions and the behaviour of uranium in natural systems as part of an on-going waste repository assessment.  I then moved to industry to project manage a team engaged in the development and application of analytical methods for trace levels analysis of veterinary pharmaceutical residues/ agrochemical residues to support regulatory submissions.  I returned to the University of Glasgow in 2007 to take up the position of lecturer in Biogeochemical Tracers at SUERC/University of Glasgow. I am a Member of the Royal Society of Chemistry and a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.
