Acoustic Techniques for Mapping the Distribution of Contaminated Sediments

摘要

I wang to begin by stating that the committee did an excellent job on the National Research Council (NRC) report. Earlier, everyone was talking about site-specific issues, which I also will address. I want to emphasize that I started my professional life as an engineer. Fortunately, someone twisted my arm and put me in the U.S.Navy as a civilian for 10 or 15 years, an association that I have continued. The Navy is the key reason why I am here today. I also wang to point out that, in discussions and presentations such as those at this symposium, you always hear about the need for action.
