Profile(s)Gbotemi A. Adediran (0000-0001-6657-3336) – ORCID

Key Research Interests

  • Particulate (microplastics, nanoplastics and tyre-wear particles) toxicity and hydro-biogeochemistry;
  • Contaminant (e.g., metals and metalloids such as Hg, Zn, Cu, Cd, Pb) fate and bioremediation;
  • Nutrients (C, N, P, K, Ca, Mg, and S) cycling & speciation
