Biography
Roy Price is an aqueous geochemist investigating the chemical evolution of hydrothermal vent fluids and groundwater. These themes overlap in that fluid chemistry is driven by water-rock reactions. He focuses on shallow-sea vents, where he evaluates toxic metal cycling, bioaccumulation of arsenic, associated microbial communities, and even the origin of life. He also investigates metal mobilization and nitrogen cycling in groundwater.
