Building upon my foundation in contaminant hydrogeochemistry, my current research has expanded to encompass the environmental behavior and geochemical dynamics of pollutants across various environmental media in mining-impacted regions. These include integrated studies of heavy metals and organic contaminants in soils, sediments, water bodies, and atmospheric particulates. Emphasis has been placed on source identification, transformation mechanisms, and risk implications using tools such as field-based surveys, laboratory simulations, and statistical modeling. This body of work has produced over 30 SCI-indexed publications and reflects a broader inquiry into pollutant pathways in coupled natural systems influenced by mining activities.
