Beschreibung

Presenting the latest environmental topics that are uniquely focused on the use of scientific techniques to identify the source, age and timing of contaminant release to the environment, this book is a well organised snapshot of the International Network of Environmental Forensics (INEF) conference held in Penn State University in 2013. Adding to the literature of global information, it will appeal to scientists, environmental consultants, regulators and attorneys with an interest in the use of environmental forensics as applied in actual situations.
