Dr. Arnaud holds a PhD in Geology (McMaster University). She joined the University of Guelph in 2002 and is currently an Associate Professor in the School of Environmental Sciences and an active member of the G360 Institute for Groundwater Research. She has expertise in the field-based analysis of sediments and sedimentary rocks. Her current research interests lie in better understanding the heterogeneity of subsurface glacial sediments and how it impacts groundwater recharge and contaminant transport; improving our ability to predict groundwater susceptibility in specific geologic settings, and better understanding the impact of glaciation on associated karstic and sedimentary bedrock aquifers.
