2009 - Pioneer in the multidisciplinary field of Biogeophysics

* Atekwana uses geophysics to understand the biogeochemical interactions at contaminated sites * Research investigates the effects of microbial-mediated processes on geological media * Some of her research evaluates the utility and resolution of in situ resistivity measurements combined with surface geoelectrical measurements to map contaminant distribution in the subsurface * Also uses the geoelectric and geophysical signatures of contaminated sites to investigate relationships between biological processes and their impact on electrical properties of geologic material.
