Carl Mitchell Email & Phone Number

Carl Mitchell is a Professor in the Department of Physical and Environmental Sciences at the University of Toronto - Scarborough, with graduate appointments in the Department of Geography, the UTSC Department of Physical and Environmental Sciences, and the School of the Environment at the University of Toronto. Dr. Mitchell completed his PhD in Physical Geography at the University of Toronto in 2007 and undertook a postdoctoral fellowship at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center until July 2008, when he was hired as an Assistant Professor at UTSC. Dr. Mitchell is currently the Associate Graduate Chair of the Department of Physical and Environmental Sciences. He serves within the earth and environmental science community as the Past-President of the Canadian Geophysical Union. Dr. Mitchell’s research group at the University of Toronto Scarborough Campus (UTSC) studies the ways in which hydrology influences biogeochemical processes and contaminant fate and transport. The group is particularly interested in mercury cycling, urban ecosystems, watershed and hilllslope hydrology, stable isotope applications in hydrology, wetland ecotoxicology, passive sampling, and fluvial transport of contaminants. His research employs state-of-the-art physical and chemical techniques, both in the field and in the laboratory. The lab is home to the federally (CFI) and provincially (MRI) funded “Integrated Watershed Hydrology and Biogeochemistry Research Facility for the Study of Contaminant Transport and Transformation”.
