NINTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON REMEDIATION AND MANAGEMENT OF CONTAMINATED SEDIMENTS

摘要

The accumulation of potentially hazardous or toxic chemicals in the sediments of rivers, lakes, bays, harbors, and oceans continues to present significant risks to the health of aquatic environments and human populations worldwide and to challenge economic development at scales from local to global. Maintaining the viability of these aquatic systems requires complex actions that affect a diverse group of stakeholders and raises a wide range of environmental, economic, political, and social issues.
