Prize Fellow in Water Engineering, Architecture and Civil Engineering Department, University of Bath

Lee Bryant is a doctor of civil and environmental engineering. Her research interests include biogeochemistry and cross-media mass transfer with a link to sustainable geoenvironmental engineering. Her key focus is characterising how sediment-water fluxes influence water quality in lakes, drinking-water supply reservoirs and oceans.

Lee is originally from Knoxville, Tennessee, which is in the south-eastern region of the United States. After obtaining her PhD degree in 2010, Lee did postdoctoral work at Duke University (North Carolina, USA) and ETH (Zurich, CH) which focused on using voltammetric methods to measure reduced metal species within the sediment and the water column.

She then obtained a postdoctoral-research position at the Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel – GEOMAR (Kiel, DE) to assess oxygen fluxes using the eddy-correlation method and to evaluate nutrient cycling in oceanic oxygen minimum zones.

Lee joined the Architecture and Civil Engineering department at the University of Bath as a Prize Fellow in Water Engineering in March 2014.
