Where do contaminants go after a near-surface environmental spill? The release of non-aqueous phase liquids (LNAPL) results in associated risks that strongly depend on how these contaminants move and transform in the subsurface. Important aspects that affect these risks are: For how long do contaminants move? Where do they go? Which tools are available to characterize their transport? What drives contaminant movement? Gravity, hydraulic gradients, or surface tension-type forces? Different processes play changing roles at different stages of the release. It is important to understand these processes before a risk assessment can be completed and subsequent important risk mitigating decisions can be made. If you would like to gain insight into these processes, as well as the current and novel tools to characterize these processes, join us next Tuesday, June 4th at the 2024 Battelle Chlorinated Conference in Denver, Colorado, where we will be conducting a learning lab in this subject, titled: NAPL Like You Have Never Seen It: An On-Demand, Non-Destructive UV-Based HRSC Tool You are also welcome to check our other events, including a platform talk, a poster, or visit us at Booth 124.

Are you a graduate student or #plastics researcher? Are you learning about the various methods folks have used to quantify plastics, and are you confused which method is the "best" for your project? This is for you! Over the past year, the #AdriftLab team (Dr Joby Hollis and I) have been working with a team of researchers (including Michelle Blewitt #AUSMAP and Brad Clarke) to develop a comprehensive guide for #microplastic and #nanoplastic #methods (sample collection and processing). The aim of these "field manuals" is to provide a state-of-the-science summary on how to undertake plastics sampling in a robust and repeatable way that ensures data quality and longevity. The manual has been published by the National Environmental Science Program #NESP and is free to download #OpenAccess here: https://lnkd.in/gzRmd54G

Science? or Science Fiction? - Dumping chemicals in the ocean? Spraying saltwater into clouds? Injecting reflective particles into the sky? Scientists are resorting to once unthinkable techniques to cool the planet because global efforts to check greenhouse gas emissions are failing. These geoengineering approaches were once considered taboo by scientists and regulators who feared that tinkering with the environment could have unintended consequences, but now researchers are receiving taxpayer funds and private investments to get out of the lab and test these methods outdoors. https://lnkd.in/e766e9p4

🧪 Wildfire Impacted Property Sampling: Tape and Wipe Methods 🧪 In California, accurate analysis of particulate matter from smoke impacted properties is crucial for understanding environmental impacts. Many experts rely on tape and wipe sampling, paired with Method M6602, to ensure precise results. 🌲🔥 Method M6602 provides a standardized approach for collecting and analyzing particulate matter from wildfire smoke, ensuring reliable data for environmental assessments. At LabMatch we connect you with top labs that specialize in these techniques, providing the data needed by property owners and insurers. 🌍🔬 #SmokeDamageSampling #EnvironmentalScience #MethodM6602 #LabMatch Follow LabMatch for more!

Do you want to learn about chemical toxins in drinking water? You know, the toxins that made Erin Brockovich famous? Tune in to today's released episode! Thank you Hosea Santiago-Cruz from Carnegie Mellon University for joining me on the podcast and discussing such critical work you do in assessing and remediating PFAS in water and the environment. Plus a relatively huge history lesson as to why a family of chemicals so detrimental to the environment could be man-made. #environmentalscience #PFAS #newpodcastepisode

Do you want to know what your dioxin fingerprint is telling you ℹ️? Is it your source🕵️? Do you want to know what it looks most like in the scientific literature? Now you can...

This is JUST a guide... we do not guarantee this tool will find your exact match but it certainly helps to narrow it down. This is just one of the many forensic tools 🔍that are available to you when using the full package of data intelligence tools available at Statvis. ✉️Contact us to hear more about how Statvis can help you get the most out of your environmental data. #ChemicalFingerprinting #DataIntelligence #EnvironmentalInsights #EDIS

Nature's Engineering Genius: Bio-Inspired Solutions for Crumbling Roads Our roads are crumbling under the pressure of more intense water, heat and ice cycles. In Central Texas, potholes that were efficiently repaired a week ago have opened up with the latest spring downpour. What if nature held the key to longer-term, effective solutions? This BBC article explores fascinating bio-inspired solutions like bacteria-based concrete that self-heals cracks. Imagine roads that mend themselves, reducing maintenance costs and environmental impact. ♻️ Nature is a master innovator, and civil engineers have the unique opportunity to learn from it and help lead us in new directions. Here are some questions to spark discussion: - Can we explore other bio-inspired materials for road construction? Think mushroom mycelium or spider silk composites! ️ - How can we leverage natural processes for road maintenance? Can bioswales or constructed wetlands help manage water infiltration? - Can we design infrastructure that coexists with nature, promoting biodiversity and mitigating the urban heat island effect? ☀️ We can move beyond simply adapting to climate change. We can use biomimicry to build a more resilient and sustainable future for our roads. What are your thoughts on the potential of nature-based solutions? #civilengineering #sustainability #climatechange #biomimicry #naturebasedsolutions P.S.
