Angela Hansen - California Water Science Center
My research focuses on source and cycling of organic carbon in aquatic environments. Much of my current work involves the investigation of organic matter optical properties–as measured by absorbance and fluorescence–to demonstrate the utility of these measurements as proxies for organic compounds (i.e. DBPs, oil/gas, wastewater, Hg, etc.). I also supervise our group’s Organic Matter Research Laboratory.

Fluorescence sensor measurements in sediment suspensions to evaluate turbidity corrections Fluorescence sensor measurements in sediment suspensions to evaluate turbidity corrections
The use of field-deployable fluorescence sensors to better understand dissolved organic matter concentrations and composition has grown immensely in recent years. Applications of these sensors to critical monitoring efforts have also grown to encompass post-fire monitoring, wastewater tracking, and use as a proxy for various contaminants. Despite the growth, it is well known that these...
Comparisons from an Aqualog Fluorometer Standardized to Quinine Sulfate Equivalents (QSE) with Excitation (ex) and Emissions (em) Equivalent to Fluorescence of Dissolved Organic Matter (fDOM) Sensors from Multiple Manufacturers Comparisons from an Aqualog Fluorometer Standardized to Quinine Sulfate Equivalents (QSE) with Excitation (ex) and Emissions (em) Equivalent to Fluorescence of Dissolved Organic Matter (fDOM) Sensors from Multiple Manufacturers
Here, we present the results supporting Table 2 in Field Techniques for Fluorescence Measurements Targeting Dissolved Organic Matter, Hydrocarbons, and Wastewater in Environmental Waters: Principles and Guidelines for Instrument Selection, Operation and Maintenance, Quality Assurance, and Data Reporting. Table 2 shows comparisons from an Aqualog 800 benchtop fluorometer standardized to...
