USGS Toxic Substances Hydrology Program. Black rocks in foreground are mine waste clasts coated with manganese oxide. Weathering of bedrock and mine wastes, in addition to draining mine adits, can generate wide variations in water quality within the watershed.

Introduction

Science Centers and scientists supported by Toxic Substances Hydrology develop and apply advanced analytical methods, field investigations, laboratory studies, and modeling capabilities to understand sources, movement, and exposure pathways of chemical and microbial contaminants in the environment. They are integrated in the Ecosystems Mission Area as the Environmental Health Program.
