About Henry A. Alegria

My area of research is in the general field of fate and transport of pollutants. I have over ten years of designing, executing and supervising research projects on the fate and transport of pollutants, including organic pollutants (e.g. pesticides, PCBs and PAHs) and others (e.g. nutrients, metals) in air, soil and water in the U.S., Mexico, Central America, Canada and Europe (independently and in team setting). Research has included modeling and determination of the impact of pollutants on sensitive ecosystems.
I have also done research on chiral analysis of pesticides to track their movement in the environment. I will also be initiating a research program on emerging contaminants (e.g. hormones and over-the-counter drugs) in surface waters. I am also interested in developing new and innovative strategies in teaching chemistry and environmental science.
