WM Keck Environmental Biogeochemistry Lab

This Keck Lab was established in 2004 by faculty from ASU’s departments of Chemistry, Geological Sciences and School of Life Sciences with the intent to get scientists directly involved in all aspects of isotope ratio measurements. Research groups interested in using these facilities need to provide at least one person who will be trained to prepare and set up samples for analysis.
