Analytical Geochemists & Instrumentation with Alan Koenig
from GeOCHemISTea · host Sam Scher
Herein we present a general microanalytical technique rant, at least three soap boxes (my favorite being "I want to also rant about bulk chemistry techniques and why if these techniques are “so routine” that we still have some labs that suck at understanding (or respecting) how to do basic chemistry well"), and the story of how a geologist with a graduate degree in geochemistry found themself crushing rocks at the USGS and living in both Omaha, Nebraska and ::shudder:: Newark, New Jersey. If you are an aspiring analytical geochemist or generally have questions / concerns about analytical techniques... this episode is for you! In lieu of a paper we looked at some notes from a short course that Alan presented in 2016 on LA-ICP-MS.
