Emily M. Klein, University Distinguished Service Professor

Please note: Emily has left the "Environmental Sciences & Environmental Sciences and Policy Major" group at Duke University; some info here might not be up to date.

Dr. Klein's research focuses on the geochemistry of oceanic basalts, using diverse tools of major, trace and isotopic analyses. Her research involves sea-going expeditions to sample and map the ocean floor.
