Since 2017, the WozMOG lab, located on the University of Delaware’s Hugh R. Sharp campus in Lewes, DE, has been studying how the sources, quantities, and molecular composition of organic matter impact processes in coastal, estuarine, oceanic, and atmospheric environments.
Our research employs a variety of organic geochemical analytical techniques to answer questions related to carbon cycling at the air-sea interface, the preservation of carbon in sedimentary, oceanic and salt marsh environments, atmospheric deposition of organic matter and nutrients, coastal water quality, and more. As such, field work takes us to local rivers, salt marshes, and estuaries and on oceanographic cruises to collect samples.
The WozMOG lab is proudly situated within the School of Marine Science and Policy in the College of Earth, Ocean, and Environment and always interested in hearing from potential graduate students and post-doctoral researchers. Please take a look at the current research projects under the Research tab on this site to get an idea of some of the work we do to see if we are a good fit for you!
