-M.Sc., Geochemistry, Colorado School
of Mines
-A.B., Geological Sciences, Cornell
University
Research Interests:
Geoffrey Ellis is an organic
geochemist who joined the PEER center
as a research associate in 2003.
Before joining the PEER center he
worked as a research chemist in
the Water Resources Division of
the USGS, as a geologist with Texaco,
Inc., and as a consultant in environmental
and resource exploration geochemistry.
His research interests include organic-inorganic
interactions in petroleum systems,
development of new technologies
for offshore exploration geochemistry,
understanding the controls on sedimentary
organic geochemistry in aquatic
environments, and the use of chemometric
data analysis in organic and forensic
geochemistry.
