Environmental Forensics

Journal Title：Environmental Forensics

Environmental Forensics provides a forum for scientific investigations that address environment contamination, its sources, and the historical reconstruction of its release into the environment. The context for investigations that form the published papers in the journal are often subjects to regulatory or legal proceedings, public scrutiny, and debate. In all contexts, rigorous scientific underpinnings guide the subject investigations.

Specifically, the journal is an international, quarterly, peer-reviewed publication offering scientific studies that explore or are relevant to the source, age, fate, transport, as well as human health and ecological effects of environmental contamination. Journal subject matter encompasses all aspects of contamination mentioned above within the environmental media of air, water, soil, sediments and biota. Data evaluation and analysis approaches are highlighted as well including multivariate statistical methods. Journal focus is on scientific and technical information, data, and critical analysis in the following areas:

-Contaminant Fingerprinting for source identification and/or age-dating, including (but not limited to) chemical, isotopic, chiral, mineralogical/microscopy techniques, DNA and tree-ring fingerprinting

-Specific Evaluative Techniques for source identification and/or age-dating including (but not limited to) historical document and aerial photography review, signature chemicals, atmospheric tracers and markets forensics, background concentration evaluations.

-Statistical Evaluation, Contaminant Modeling and Data Visualization

-Vapor Intrusion including delineating the source and background values of indoor air contamination

-Integrated Case Studies, employing environmental fate techniques

-Legal Considerations, including strategic considerations for environmental fate in litigation and arbitration, and regulatory statutes and actions

Environmental Forensics 为科学调查提供了一个论坛，这些调查涉及环境污染、其来源以及其释放到环境中的历史重建。构成期刊发表论文的调查背景通常会受到监管或法律程序、公众监督和辩论的影响。在所有情况下，严格的科学基础指导主题调查。

具体而言，该期刊是一份国际性的季度性同行评审出版物，提供科学研究或与环境污染的来源、年龄、命运、运输以及人类健康和生态影响相关的科学研究。期刊主题涵盖空气、水、土壤、沉积物和生物群等环境介质中上述污染的所有方面。还强调了数据评估和分析方法，包括多变量统计方法。期刊重点关注以下领域的科技信息、数据和批判性分析：

-用于来源识别和/或年代测定的污染物指纹，包括（但不限于）化学、同位素、手性、矿物学/显微镜技术、DNA 和年轮指纹

-用于来源识别和/或年代测定的特定评估技术，包括（但不限于）历史文件和航空摄影审查、标志性化学品、大气示踪剂和市场取证、背景浓度评估。

-统计评估、污染物建模和数据可视化

-Vapor Intrusion，包括描述室内空气污染的来源和背景值

-综合案例研究，采用环境归宿技术

-法律考虑，包括诉讼和仲裁中环境命运的战略考虑，以及监管法规和行动
