Biography
Education History: Ph.D. in Hydrology and Water Resources from the University of Arizona, 1989 MS in Geological Sciences from Wright State University, 1983 BA in Geology from Wittenberg University, 1981 Professor Ritzi has a Ph.D. in Hydrology and Water Resources from the University of Arizona. His MS and BA degrees are in geological sciences
Research Interest
His research is focused on better understanding subsurface flow processes. His interests include groundwater flow and facilitated transport of solutes, particulates and heat within heterogeneous aquifer systems. His interests also include enhanced oil recovery and geologic sequestration of CO2.
