Migration and behavior of environmental contaminants

My research interests include contaminant transport and colloid dynamics and migration in the terrestrial systems. My projects focus on microplastics in the environment, including investigation of microplastic sources and distribution in urban community gardens and the development of image analysis-based low-cost enumeration techniques for microplastics in laboratory settings. In addition, I work on projects about stream dynamics, include the use of low-cost sensors and citizen science to develop sustainable and affordable monitoring of streams and an investigation of the dynamics of pathogens in the Meshushim Stream of the Golan Heights.
