Professor Jemma Wadham is a leading researcher in the field of Glaciology with a focus on hydrological and biogeochemical processes occurring in glaciers and ice sheets. Her research interests encompass determining the role of glaciers and ice sheets in regulating global biogeochemical cycles and evaluating the impact of nutrients and carbon exported from ice sheets on marine productivity and methane emissions from subglacial permafrost. Wadham also investigates the survival mechanisms of extremophile life in icy ecosystems, developing and validating sensing technologies and autonomous platforms to survey icy ecosystems and subglacial lakes. Additionally, she studies the impacts of glacier retreat on water quality in high mountain regions such as the Andes and Asia. Her extensive research projects include examining accelerated carbon dioxide release from sedimentary rocks in a warming world and assessing the effects of glacial flour on nitrogen cycling in croplands.
