David Blowes develops improved techniques for predicting and remediating groundwater contamination from metals, metalloids, pathogens, nutrients, and emerging contaminants. He employs a wide range of tools, including field investigations, laboratory experiments, and mathematical modeling to understand the complex behavior of contaminated systems. Professor Blowes leads the Groundwater Geochemistry Remediation Group at the University of Waterloo, along with Carol Ptacek. He also heads the NSERC-funded TERRE-CREATE training program focused on sustainable mining practices. His research encompasses various aspects of groundwater geochemistry including remediation technologies like permeable reactive barriers, monitoring techniques utilizing non-traditional stable isotopes, and geochemical processes associated with mining waste and acid rock drainage. With numerous publications and patents in the field, Professor Blowes contributes significantly to scholarly research and has received multiple awards for his work, including the Outstanding Performance Award from the Faculty of Science at the University of Waterloo.
