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.
