Ariel Anbar is Associate Professor in the Department of Geological Sciences and Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the Arizona State University. Researchers in his group use chemical concepts and approaches to study geological, chemical and biological processes that shape the Earth's surface environment and how they have changed through time. In particular, they are interested in the development and application of novel analytical techniques, to precisely measure mass-dependent variations in the isotopic compositions of transition metals such as iron and molybdenum. Dr. Anbar also leads the NASA Astrobiology Institute's Focus Group on Early Earth that has organized several field trips to Western Australia - one of the few places on Earth with
well-preserved sediments (including biosignatures) from the Archaen. |
