This grant is for supporting problem-solving research on the mechanisms of biogeochemical interactions that influence the bioavailability of contaminants. Environmental contaminants are impacted by complex biological, geological, and chemical processes, which have significant implications for both the effectiveness of remediation efforts and potential exposure risks to humans. By funding studies that explore these intricate interactions, the grant aims to enhance our understanding of how contaminants behave in various environmental media, including soil, sediment, surface water, and groundwater. Ultimately, this research will contribute to optimizing in situ remediation strategies and improving science-based decision-making for site management and the selection of effective remedies.

| Description: | Contaminants in the environment are affected by complex biological, geological and chemical processes that have implications for both remediation effectiveness as well as exposure risk to humans. By understanding the mechanisms of these complex interactions, we are better equipped to optimize remediation strategies and, therefore, improve science-based decision making for site management, priority-setting, and remedy selection. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) will support problem-solving research on the mechanisms of biogeochemical interactions affecting bioavailability in the context of in situ remediation of contaminated soil, sediment, surface water, or groundwater. |
