Evalutation

 
 
 Field Investigation Team Evaluation

All Teams are responsible for the first three questions:
Definition Dictionary Definition Definition in context with Examples Scientific Explanation Discriminate between definitions and/or viewpoints
Causes
Sources
Uses
Contaminant and evidence of contamination Sources (point, non-point), historical and/or current uses Routes, means of transport, primary vs. secondary, incidental Documentation of problem based on what is known, unresolved questions, missing or controversial data
Concentration Relative concentrations throughout Ramford Change in concentrations over time in Ramford Reasons for relative concentrations in Ramford Assessment of the total extent of contaminant

Environmental Concentrations - Geography Where the acid precipitation exists in the physical environment Problems on a domestic and international level Acid precipitation effect based on activity and concentration at source and field locations Examples (case studies) of acid precipitation effects on air, lakes, and buildings
Interaction with environment How the contaminant interacts with the environment Interactions in air, water (surface and ground), and soil including domino effect Results of the domino effect (specific chemical interactions, e.g. solubility and volatility) Cases showing the relative importance of the environmental interactions

 

Transport in the environment, ie: water, air soil & sediment How the contaminant moves in the environment Relative importance of different kinds of movement Relative importance of different rates of movement Ranking of different kinds of movement based on importance in contamination
