Assessing and Managing Sediments Field deployable SPME Organoclays Passive Sampling So, if we really want to use porewater to characterize availability, how do we measure it? It’s difficult due to typically low concentrations and limited sample volumes, but with a passive sampling technique, SPME, can concentrate the contaminant into a solid phase which increases detection limits dramatically Have field-deployable model that can be used to measure concentrations in sediment, and even at discrete depths in sediment Steady state Modeled permeable sorptive barrier Passive Sampling for Organics and Metals
