Methods And Standards For Environmental Measurement

Excerpt from Methods and Standards for Environmental Measurement: Proceedings of the 8th Material Research Symposium Held at the National Bureau of Standards, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20234, September 20-24, 1976 This book presents the Proceedings of the 8th Materials Research Symposium on Methods and Standards for Environmental Measurement held at the National Bureau of Standards, Gaithersburg, Maryland, on September 20 through September 24, 1976. The Symposium was sponsored by the nbs Institute for Materials Research in conjunction with the Office of Air and Water Measurement. The volume contains extended abstracts of the invited and contributed papers in topics of concern at the time of the symposium: Accuracy, the analysis of trace organic compounds in water, multielement analysis, the physical and chemical characterization of aerosols, in situ methods for water analysis, the application of laser technology to atmospheric monitoring, ambient air quality monitoring, the chemical characterization of inorganic and organometallic constituents, reference materials for environmental measurement and finally, environmental laboratory certification and collaborative testing.

Kontaminationen so früh wie möglich erkennen und damit so früh wie möglich beseitigen: Statistische Methoden, die diesem Ziel dienen, werden hier vorgestellt. Die besprochenen Strategien zum Nachweis und zur Quantifizierung von Schadstoffen lassen sich auf alle Umweltkompartimente anwenden. Praktische Details werden anhand von Fallstudien anschaulich erläutert.
