PREDICTING CONTAMINANT TRANSFER FOLLOWING RE-ESTABLISHED CONNECTIVITY IN THE BOARDMAN RIVER
… the GL became a reservoir of anthropogenic contaminants such as mercury (Hg), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethylene (DDT), and organochloride compounds. Migratory fish accumulate and magnify contaminants within their tissues and transport them across ecosystem …

Causes and Consequences of a Collapsing Food Web in Lake huron
… have the potential to not only affect energy transfer, but contaminant transfer as well. Bioaccumulation patterns in lake trout differed significantly across the three basins, with Georgian Bay revealing the most significant increase in bioaccumulation potential. These differences are …

Direct Volatilization of Naphthalene at a Creosote-Contaminated Site with a Phytoremediation System
… We hypothesize that the combined mechanisms of contaminant transfer to the vadose zone, followed by rapid biodegradation, speeds up remediation in contrast to biodegradation that occurs only in the saturated zone under high groundwater conditions. Several columns using contaminated and …
