Integrative Passive Sampling

Passive sampling devices are promising tools that allow for continuous monitoring of aquatic environments without the difficulties of collecting, transporting, storing and analyzing numerous large sample volumes. Our interest is in further developing passive samplers that can integrate the environmental concentration of contaminants over time and in relating these time-weighted concentrations to toxicity.

 

Current projects include investigating the use of POCIS samplers for measurement of explosives and modifying current integrative passive sample designs to better measure pulsed exposures (96h or less) of hydrophobic pesticides and trace metals.
