Charlotte Lloyd is an Associate Professor in Environmental Chemistry at the University of Bristol. She holds an MSc in Geography and a PhD from the University of Bristol, awarded in 2012. Her research focuses on the fate and transport of organic matter and pollutants in terrestrial environments, particularly in relation to agricultural practices. Lloyd's PhD research, supported by a NERC CASE studentship involving collaboration with Rothamsted Research, investigated the behavior of cattle slurry in soil-water systems, providing insights into the transport mechanisms of organic and inorganic components in these environments. Following her doctoral work, she worked as a postdoctoral researcher on DEFRA-funded projects aimed at understanding catchment-scale hydrology and chemical dynamics using high-resolution sensor data. In 2019, she was awarded the Royal Society Dorothy Hodgkin Research Fellowship, which enabled her to further explore the environmental impacts of plastic-derived compounds. Lloyd's work integrates biogeochemical and hydrological approaches, emphasizing the transformation and transport of organic matter and the implications for environmental pollution. Her broad research interests include organic geochemistry, aquatic biogeochemistry, and the impacts of agricultural pollutants, including bioplastics, on ecosystems.
