    Linked via "environmental remediation"

    Geotechnical and Environmental Surveys
    $\text{GPR}$ is used extensively in civil engineering to locate buried utilities (pipes,cables), assess pavement integrity, and map geological hazards. For detecting features like shear zones in active seismic areas, high-resolution surveys are often conducted perpendicular to the anticipa…

  2. Manganese Compounds

    Linked via "environmental remediation"

    Permanganates ($\text{MnO}_4^-$)
    Potassium permanganate ($\text{KMnO}_4$) is one of the most powerful and widely used non-halogen oxidizers in chemical synthesis and environmental remediation. In solution, the intense purple color is attributed to an intense ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) band-band/) occurring around $527 \text{ nm}$.

  5. Soil Stratum

    Linked via "environmental remediation"

    A soil stratum (layer)) (plural: strata (layers))) refers to a distinct, generally horizontal layer within a soil profile, differentiated from adjacent layers by variations in texture, composition, color, organic content, or chemical properties. These layers reflect the cumulative processes of pedogenesis (soil formation) influenced by climate, biota, parent material, [topography](/entries/topo…
