Anne E. Carey

Anne E. Carey serves as an Academy Professor at The Ohio State University's School of Earth Sciences, specializing in geochemical and hydrological research. Her work integrates quantitative physical hydrology with biogeochemistry to address critical environmental challenges.

Her primary research interests include:

• Weathering processes and landscape evolution in small mountainous rivers
• Urban and agricultural impacts on water quality
• Watershed-scale geochemical mass balances
• Coastal aquifer dynamics
• Permafrost hydrology under climate change

Current projects investigate landslide-driven carbon mobilization in Guatemalan watersheds and the role of chemical weathering in rapidly uplifting geological environments.

Professor Carey maintains significant international collaborations with researchers in New Zealand, Taiwan, the Philippines, and Nicaragua. Her research has secured external funding from the National Science Foundation and Department of Energy.

Educational background:

• Ph.D. in Geochemistry, University of Nevada, Reno (1995)

She operates from Mendenhall Laboratory (Room 230) and maintains active research groups focused on water-climate-environment interactions.
