| Popis: | Investigating the ecological impacts of contaminants released into the environment requires the integration of information from multiple lines of evidence. The collection and analysis of interstitial (pore) water is often used as one of the lines of evidence for developing benthic exposure estimates in aquatic ecosystems. It is a well-established principle that chemical and toxicity data on interstitial water samples should represent in-situ conditions. Unfortunately collection and processing of pore water is not standardized to address the possibility of geochemical transformations introduced by atmospheric exposure. Furthermore there are no suitable benchmarks (ecological risk or regulatory) against which to measure chemical concentrations in pore water. |
