Kerri's research focuses on water quality and geochemistry of groundwater and surface water at and near the Idaho National Laboratory.
Science and Products
Geochemical Modeling - Idaho National Laboratory
Geochemical models for the eastern Snake River Plain aquifer system are being used to better understand the flow of groundwater beneath the INL and, ultimately, to better understand the fate and transport of radiochemical and chemical constituents. As water moves through the ground, it picks up chemicals from the gases and rocks it comes in contact with.

Processing periphyton samples from the Snake River, Idaho
A USGS hydrologist process periphyton samples collected from the Snake River in southern Idaho. The samples were collected and analyzed as part of a study examining the effects on the river's benthic communities of copper treatments to eradicate invasive quagga mussels.
