Rate My Professor James Noblet

Noblet's research focuses on the measurement, transportation, fate, and effects of anthropogenic chemicals in aquatic systems, particularly water quality analysis. His publications address topics such as wastewater treatment for pharmaceuticals, paleoclimate reconstruction from lake sediments, nitrate deposit formation, and pollutant inventories in coastal waters. Notable works include "Conventional and advanced treatment methods for the removal of pharmaceuticals and related compounds in wastewater" (2022), "Pacific Southwest United States Holocene Droughts and Pluvials Inferred From Sediment δ¹⁸O(calcite) and Grain Size Data (Lake Elsinore, California)" (2019), "Isotope stratigraphy: Insights on paleoclimate and formation of nitrate deposits in the Atacama Desert, Chile" (2018), "Distribution and mass inventory of total DDE in the water column of the Southern California Bight (USA)" (2005), and "Use of Fecal Steroids To Infer the Sources of Fecal Indicator Bacteria in the Lower Santa Ana River Watershed, California: Sewage Is Unlikely a Significant Source" (2004). He taught General Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, Environmental Chemistry, Materials Science, and general education courses. Noblet mentored undergraduate and graduate students, serving on thesis committees for the MS in Environmental Sciences program, fostering impactful student research in environmental chemistry.
