Prof. James Longstaffe is an assistant professor in the School of Environmental Sciences at the University of Guelph. His research focuses on the behavior of chemical contaminants in the environment, examining the impacts of anthropogenic chemical agents that contribute to global environmental change. Longstaffe's work investigates the complex interactions of chemical, physical, and biological processes occurring within heterogeneous mixtures such as air, water, soil, and biological materials. He aims to develop a molecular-level understanding of the roles that environmental matrices (e.g., soils, sediments, colloids, and natural organic matter) play in governing the availability of contaminants and natural attenuation processes. His primary research areas include developing novel analytical tools for characterizing contaminated environments and providing insights into natural processes that can mitigate environmental contamination.
