Environmental Science: Chemical Fate/ Transport

Gradient's fate and transport analysis predicts chemical concentrations where available data fall short – at locations lacking data, predicting future conditions (e.g., remedy scenarios), or reconstructing historical exposures. Whether using analytical models, mass balances, or complex numerical models, we excel at identifying the most effective modeling approach to solve the problem.

Our modeling has proven highly successful in negotiating effective remedial actions for complex sites, in toxic torts, and for resolving disputes among multiple parties. We know:

  • Groundwater modeling
  • Air emissions & dispersion modeling
  • Soil-Vapor intrusion/Indoor air models
  • Geochemical modeling
  • Multimedia chemical partitioning
  • Bioaccumulation/Biodegradation/Natural attenuation
  • Contaminated sediments and surface water quality analysis
