1. Remediation of PFAS-contaminated soil and wastewater : Feasibility of chain treatment applying destructive techniques
Abstract : Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are man-made chemicals ubiquitously distributed in soil and aquatic media, resulting from their wide range of industrial applications. Today, PFAS is a global concern due to their persistence in the environment and their adverse effects on humans and the ecosystem. READ MORE

2. Cellular effects of ionizing radiation : Relevant for understanding cancer risk after medical and environmental radiation exposures
Abstract : Radiation-induced cancers are stochastic and delayed effects of exposure to ionizing radiation. The dose-response relationship for radiation-induced cancers at both low dose/low dose rates and high doses (doses encountered during radiotherapy) remains unclear. READ MORE

3. Studies of Volcanic Plumes with Remote Spectroscopic Sensing Techniques -DOAS and FTIR measurements on volcanoes of the Network for Observation of Volcanic and Atmospheric Change-
Abstract : Volcanism is a rich geodynamical process, closely linked to the origin and ongoing evolution of the lithosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere and biosphere. Humans have benefited from the resources provided by volcanoes but also been threatened by the dangers of volcanic eruptions, which accurate prediction remains elusive. READ MORE

5. Effects of solar radiation on the abiotic and bacterially mediated carbon flux in aquatic ecosystems
Abstract : In this Thesis, I studied some of the current aspects of organic matter photochemistry. I analyzed abiotic phototransformations of several types of dissolved (DOM) and particulate organic matter (POM). I also evaluated the effects of phototransformation of several types of DOM on bacteria. READ MORE
