Description
Summary:The use of in situ equilibrium dialysis samplers (peepers) for the collection of sediment pore waters for trace metal analysis is reviewed. Optimum peeper designs, construction and preparation procedures are described. Field deployment and sampling protocols are outlined with their utility illustrated by dissolved metal profiles obtained from field studies.
