GeoPro Talks: Online portal for forensic fingerprinting and understanding your Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) data

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous contaminants emanating from multiple sources in the environment. When conducting environmental monitoring of PAHs, it is imperative to examine sources of PAHs to know if they are coming from the source or sources you are investigating. This presentation will cover the fundamentals of what chemical fingerprinting of PAHs works, […]

RERUN GeoPro Talks – Understanding PAHs: Get more out of your data, don’t just tabulate – let’s interpret

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) should be treated differently than routine environmental contaminants when measured as part of your environmental investigation.  They present with distinctive fingerprints from their sources and move together in the environment as a family of compounds.  Therefore, all environmental investigations measuring PAHs should take the time to interpret the PAH results and […]

GeoPro Talks: Imposex in the City

As practitioners in the contaminated sites field, we know that exposure to various chemicals at concentrations above a certain threshold is bad. Sometimes, however, we do not know why they are bad.  The objective of this presentation is to provide high level information related to the “bad” (i.e. toxicity). It focuses on aquatic ecological exposures […]
