Laboratories

The CoEER has two main laboratories – the terrestrial and aquatic. The terrestrial lab is used mainly for studies dealing with the terrestrial environment. The aquatic lab is used for aquatic environment research.

Each lab has basic sample handling and preparation rooms equipped with dry and cool storage facilities and fume boards. Currently, these laboratories are mainly used for conducting research, handling samples and preparations. 

Instrumental analysis of the environmental samples of parameters (nutrients, metals, etc.) of interest are done elsewhere within the University – PNG Analytica, National Food Testing and Monitoring Centre and National Analytical and Testing Services Ltd.

Please check the University website for the range of services provided by these laboratories.
