Carl Mitchell - University of Toronto

Dr. Carl Mitchell is one of the premier hydrology researchers in biogeochemical processes and contaminant fate and transport. His lab is home to the CFI and MRI-funded “Integrated Watershed Hydrology and Biogeochemistry Research Facility for the Study of Contaminant Transport and Transformation” and has been a key supporter of research at SMHCO.

Colin McCarter - McMaster University

Dr. McCarter's research focuses on hydrology and biogeochemistry. He has been working in SMHCO elucidating the biogeochemical transformation and transport of Mercury and other contaminants. Providing important information on relevant and highly dangerous risks to habitat and public drinking water, this research has much wider impacts on our society.
