Juerg M. Matter is Associate Professor in Geoengineering at the University of Southampton, UK since spring 2013. Matter was previously an Associate Research Professor at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, and an Adjunct Assistant Professor at the School of International and Public Affairs at Columbia University, New York. Matter studies the physical and geochemical processes of gas-water-rock reactions. He has worked on the geochemical and isotopic characterization of groundwater systems applying field techniques and numerical simulations. His primary focus now is on geologic carbon capture and storage. Matter has made fundamental advances in understanding permanent carbon storage in unconventional geologic reservoirs, such as basaltic rocks and mantle peridotites. He also develops new tracer techniques for monitoring and accounting of CO2 transport, reactivity and storage in geologic systems. He received his MSci and PhD from ETH-Zurich in Switzerland.
