Résumé

A fact-based, unbiased directory of tools and techniques for analyzing contamination in air, water, and soil

Environmental science professionals can now choose from an impressive array of instrumentation and methodologies when analyzing field conditions at potential contamination sites. This wealth of choices; however, can become a burden when practitioners must determine which approach will be the most optimal and accurate for measuring a particular site.

Environmental Instrumentation and Analysis Handbook is the first book to comprehensively catalog the benefits and drawbacks of virtually every available tool and technique, More than three dozen veteran environmental professionals describe the basic science that supports their field analyses, and then provide invaluable firsthand case studies and reports regarding:

Equipment and methodologies at use in the field
Applicability of a particular instrument in an analytical technique
What can go wrong and why-and how to avoid it

Since the beginning of environmental science, the primary information resources for obtaining field data have been obscure journal articles, manufacturer's catalogs, sales personnel, and personal experience. Environmental Instrumentation and Analysis Handbook combines all of the pertinent data into one innovative resource, providing new help for field professionals who need to understand which instruments and procedures have worked best under certain conditions, and how to successfully implement them.
