Description
The human footprint on the global environment now touches every corner of the world.
This book explores the myriad ways that environmental archives can be used to study the distribution and long-term trajectories of chemical contaminants.
The volume first focuses on reviews that examine the integrity of the historic record, including factors related to hydrology, post-depositional diffusion, and mixing processes.
This is followed by a series of chapters dealing with the diverse archives and methodologies available for long-term studies of environmental pollution, such as the use of sediments, ice cores, sclerochronology, and museum specimens.
