Petroleum Hydrocarbon Contamination in Terrestrial Ecosystems—Fate and Microbial Responses

Petroleum Hydrocarbon Contamination in Terrestrial Ecosystems—Fate and Microbial Responses

Petroleum hydrocarbons represent the most frequent environmental contaminant. The introduction of petroleum hydrocarbons into a pristine environment immediately changes the nature of that environment, resulting in reduced ecosystem functionality. Natural attenuation represents the single, most impor...
