Sampling the environs for contamination

Creators

Description

Many contaminants may exhibit a highly dynamic behavior in both abiotic (atmosphere, water, and soil) and biotic systems and various kinds of mathematical models for that behavior have been developed. Guidance is lacking for the design of a sampling program for the study of a trace substance (contaminants) in any system. Because contaminants are seldom found to be uniformly spread over the landscape, it was concluded that sampling programs should be designated to fit the needs of each study
