Yeo Myoung Cho

YeoMyoung is a senior research engineer with an emphasis on the study of environmental transport and fate of organic contaminants, with experience in natural sediment systems and estuary processes. Her background in chemistry, geochemistry and environmental engineering is a combination of research in the area of water quality, geochemical processes, and natural systems. In her PhD work, she managed and executed the first ever field demonstration showing that in-place sediment treatments may beneficially sequester polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), thereby reducing ecological and human health risk. As a postdoctoral researcher, she continued to study in-situ sediment remediation, while expanding her research scope through various projects.
