| Abstract |
The purpose of this research is to evaluate the ability of the Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code (EFDC), the state-of-the-art contaminated sediment modeling system, to simulate the transport and fate of a contaminant over a time period of at least 10 years. This time period was chosen since models would normally have to be run over a multi-decade time period to evaluate the effectiveness of various remedial measures, e.g., dredging, capping, dredging and capping, monitored natural recovery (MNR), in reducing the contaminant concentrations in both the sediment and water column. The demonstration site chosen was the Housatonic River in western Massachusetts. |
