Morgan Schaller (born 1982) is an American geochemist and geologist specializing in stable isotope and fluid inclusion geochemistry, which he uses to reconstruct Earth's ancient atmospheric gas concentrations. He is currently the Edward P. Hamilton Associate Professor of Earth Science at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, in Troy, NY. Schaller was the 2018 recipient of the F.G. Houtermans Award from the European Association of Geochemistry,[1] which recognizes the exceptional contributions to geochemistry by an early career scientist.[2]
Schaller's scholarly works have been cited over 2500 times.[3]
