N. T. Basta studies contamination of soils and mine waste by heavy metals and metalloids such as arsenic and mercury, with a focus on how bioavailable (able to be absorbed by living organisms) these contaminants are and how they affect human health risk. This work includes evaluating remediation strategies, such as using lime and biosolids to restore mine tailings, and developing methods to measure contaminant exposure risk in soils.
