IAH has launched a new Technical Insight Series, designed both to inform professionals in other sectors of key interactions with groundwater resources and hydrogeological science, and to guide IAH members in their outreach to related sectors. This is a technical overview with a different emphasis and intended audience to the highly appreciated Strategic Overview Series, which is aimed at a more general readership.
The first and second in the Series were written by our Groundwater Quality Commission. ‘PFAS – Groundwater’s Dark Matter’ describes the chemistry and detection of PFAS in groundwater samples, their current water quality limits, and potential treatment options for PFAS polluted water. ‘Groundwater in the Age of Plastic’ reviews the current understanding of plastic contamination in groundwater, summarises methods that can be used for sampling and detection of plastics as well as the status of environmental regulation of plastics.
IAH intends that future technical insight papers will be produced by the commissions and networks summarising other issues of topical interest.
