In situ capping of contaminated sediments: spatial and temporal characterization of biogeochemical and contaminant biotransformation processes

Contaminated aquatic sediments pose health risks to fish, wildlife, and humans and can limit recreational and economic uses of surface waters. Technical and cost effective in situ approaches for sediment management and remediation have been identified as a research need. Subaqueous in situ capping...
