ESCI 460 - Contaminant Movement in the Environment Physical, chemical, and biological processes that govern movement of contaminants in the environment and ultimate fate of these contaminants. Aspects of these processes that will be investigated include concentration, persistence, reactivity and portioning among environmental media (air, water, soil, sediment and biota). These processes will be used as a basis of simple mathematical expressions used to determine contaminant behavior in the environment. Environmental risks to biological receptors will also be investigated.
Prerequisites & Notes: Completion of Huxley Environmental Science prerequisites; ESCI 361; CHEM 251 or (CHEM 351 and CHEM 352); or permission of instructor.
Credits: 4 Grade Mode: Letter
