Ms. Clarah Kimani is a geologist and researcher specializing in fluid and noble gas geochemistry. Her research focuses on understanding the origin, migration and release of crustal and mantle-derived volatiles particularly helium (He) and cabodioxide (CO₂) within the East African Rift system (EARS). Her work involve field based geochemical investigation including measuring CO₂ degassing from the soil using an accumulation camber to understand how tectonic processes control the transport and release of deep seated volatiles to the earth’s surface.
