Carin Sjöstedt is a researcher at the Department of Soil and Environment at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU), Uppsala, Sweden. She holds a Ph.D. in Land and Water Resources Engineering at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden and a M.Sc. and B.S. in Environmental Science at Stockholm University, Sweden. Her expertise and interests are mainly in metal(loid) speciation in soil and water bodies, and has specialized in the techniques X-ray absorption spectroscopy and geochemical equilibrium modeling. Her recent paper "Evidence of the mineral ZnHAsO4· H2O, koritnigite, controlling As (V) and Zn (II) solubility in a multi-contaminated soil" was published in Applied Geochemistry, and is as an Editor's Choice featured with the Emerging Investigator Series

Jaime Cesar is a Research Scientist at the Geological Survey of Canada, Calgary. Jaime combines molecular, compound-specific, and site-specific stable isotope tools to study organic compounds from petroleum basins and other environments to optimize the exploration and production of hydrocarbon resources and perform paleo-environmental reconstructions. Jaime’s research is part of the Geoscience for New Energy Supply (GNES) program funded by Natural Resources Canada (NRCan). His recent paper “A novel isotopic approach to distinguish primary microbial and thermogenic gases in shallow subsurface environments” was published in Applied Geochemistry, and is featured with the Emerging Investigator Series.

Lauren E. BeckinghamOpen Call: Emerging Investigator Series
We are delighted to announce the Emerging Investigators Series in our Society's journal, Applied Geochemistry. The aim of the Series is to highlight excellent work by independent researchers in their early career that bring new insights into the field of geochemistry or to promote geochemical applications. Multidisciplinary work related to applied geochemistry, biogeochemical processes, and environmental geochemistry are also highly welcomed. Featured articles as well as the authors as emerging investigators will be extensively advertised to diverse disciplines and communities through multiple platforms of the journal and the International Association of GeoChemistry. The selected Emerging Investigators will also be considered as candidates for the early career honors bestowed by IAGC and the editorial engagements with Applied Geochemistry.
Application
At the time of application, applicants should have completed their PhD (or equivalent degree) within the last 10 years, and have an independent career. Apply to the Emerging Investigators Series by contacting Editors-in-Chief, Michael Kersten and Zimeng Wang with the following information:
- Your up-to-date CV with full name, affiliation, contact information. The CV should be no longer than 3 pages and include the education and career, a (selected) list of publications, professional achievement, honors and awards, and a website of applicant's group if available.
- A synopsis of the article intended to be submitted to the Series, including a tentative submission date. Please see https://www.journals.elsevier.com/applied-geochemistry for more information on the manuscript types and other instructions for authors. Regular research article, rapid communication, feature article, and critical review are all acceptable to the Series.
Review Criteria
Applications will be reviewed by the editors and the advisory board of the journal. The relevant criteria for reviewing will be based on the following:
- originality and novelty of the research
- scientific quality of the research
- potential for significant impact
- balancing factors related to inclusion and diversity
Schedule
This is an ongoing series with featured articles being added into the collection of Emerging Investigator Series continuously and displayed on the media of the journal and IAGC.
