    Kanika Sharma Inglett

    Research Assistant Professor, Environmental Microbiology

    Program Areas

    • Teaching
      • SWS 6366 Bioremediation and Biodegradation of Contaminants
      • SWS 6448 Biogeochemistry of Wetlands
    • Research

      Departmental Research Areas:

      • Climate Change Effects on Carbon & Nitrogen Cycling
      • Greenhouse Gas Emmisssions in Terrestrial & Aquatics Systems
      • Microbial Ecology in Wetlands
      • Bioremediation & Biodegradation of Environmental Pollutants

      Research focus:

      • Studying the effect of vegetation on decomposition of organic matter and greenhouse gas production and oxidation.
      • Aquatic food webs to study the trophic interactions between microbial functional groups in Florida Everglades.
      • Characterization of microbial communities associated with the early development of soils in a calcareous wetland soil using phospholipids fatty acid analysis.
      • Biogeochemical succession in early development of soils using nutrient and soil enzyme analysis.
      • Investigation of biogeochemical, physical and biological mechanisms that influence the phosphatase production in the periphyton mats.
      • Linking structure and functions in periphyton mats by using enzyme labeled fluorescent (ELF) substrate and fluorescence microscopy.
