个人简介

Dr. Noblet received a B.S. in Geology from the University of California-Los Angeles in 1983, an M.S. in Chemistry from California State University-Long Beach in 1991, and a Ph.D. in Environmental Health Sciences from the University of California-Los Angeles in 1997. Dr. Noblet is an environmental chemist with over 10 years of experience in chemical analysis and project management. His expertise is in the transport, transformations and fate of contaminants in aquatic systems. He also has considerable experience in both gas and liquid chromatography. Prior to joining CSUSB, he was a senior research scientist at the Southern California Coastal Water Research Project Authority, and prior to that he was an Assistant Professor of environmental and analytical chemistry at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay. In the past, he has participated in several regional research studies involving such diverse issues as pesticides in the waters of the San Joaquin Valley, contaminants associated with stormwater, water treatment, sources of bacterial pollution to Southern California beaches, and bioaccumulation of contaminants by marine organisms. His research interests are on contaminants in the Southern California coastal ocean, methods for assessing the potential impacts of pollution, environmental applications of solid-phase microextraction and supercritical fluid extraction, chiral and isotope ratio gas chromatography, and new emerging or non-regulated contaminants. Prior to his career in environmental work, he worked for six years as materials scientist in the aerospace industry.
