Passive sampling methods for contaminated sediments: Scientific rationale supporting use of freely dissolved concentrations

Passive sampling methods (PSMs) allow the quantification of the freely dissolved concentration (Cfree) of an organic contaminant even in complex matrices such as sediments. Cfree is directly related to a contaminant's chemical activity, which drives spontaneous processes including diffusive upt...
