ABSTRACT
Because pore water fills the spaces between soil or sediment particles, sampling this water is a useful tool for water quality monitoring, management, and research. Dissolved contaminants move through pores to groundwater and sometimes surface waters. Soils/sediments have the ability to alter water chemistry through chemical (adsorption, precipitation, etc.), physical (filtration, retention, etc.), and biological
