Abdulla's Organic Biogeochemistry research laboratory specializes in aquatic environmental metabolomics, studying the fluxes, fate, and transformation of natural dissolved organic matter (DOM). The research group focuses on understanding the fate and transformation of natural DOM and organic pollutants and investigating how different aquatic species tolerate environmental stresses using environmental metabolomics approaches. Additionally, the lab is dedicated to developing advanced analytical methods for the sensitive and robust quantification of metabolites.
