Habitat valuation methods are most often developed and used to prioritize candidate lands for conservation. In this study the intent of habitat valuation was to inform was to inform the decision-making process for remediation of chemical contaminants on specific lands or surface water bodies. Methods were developed to summarize dimensions of habitat value for six representative aquatic and terrestrial contaminated sites at the East Tennessee Technology Park (ETTP) on the US Department of Energy Oak Ridge Reservation in Oak Ridge, TN, USA. Several general valuation metrics were developed for three broad categories; site use by groups of organisms, site rarity, and use value added from spatial context. Examples of...

The Sediment-Contaminant Database for the Upper Mississippi River System contains information from a total of 3950 analyzed sediment samples, including 2697 from the Mississippi River, 440 from the Illinois River, and 813 from tributaries. These samples were collected during 1974 through 2000, with 262 samples from the 1970s, 2168 from the 1980s, 1518 from the 1990s, and 2 from the year 2000. The database contains data on metals, metalloids, nutrients, polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, industrial compounds, sterols, petroleum-related compounds, and polychlorinated biphenyls in three types of samples: bed sediment (86.6% of the samples), sediment trap (1.8%), and pore water...
