Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Erik D. Pollock's research focuses on environmental monitoring and the application of stable isotope analysis to understand ecological processes and human impacts. His work investigates the drivers of cyanotoxin and taste-and-odor compound presence in rivers affected by human activity. He has also examined the long-term effects of agricultural practices on soil organic matter isotopes and the use of carbon and nitrogen isotopes for sediment fingerprinting, including the non-conservativeness of organic tracers in fluvial sediment records.

Pollock also contributes to veterinary applications, co-authoring research on a multicomponent microneedle patch for drug delivery. His methodological interests include the use of carbon and nitrogen isotopic ratios for environmental tracing and the application of stable isotopes to distinguish between wild and captive animal populations. He has also explored the removal of trichloroethylene using various carbon materials.

With an h-index of 20 and over 1,100 citations across 80 publications, Pollock has also been involved in securing significant federal funding. He co-PI'd an NSF grant for $1,099,952 for the acquisition of a replacement multicollector ICP-MS, an instrument crucial for enhanced research in geology, archeology, and paleobiology.
