Contaminated sediments are a complex and persistent global challenge affecting aquatic ecosystem health, biodiversity, and the sustainable use of water resources. This book provides practical, state-of-the-science guidance on sediment quality assessment and management in marine and freshwater environments, bringing together leading international experts from academia, consulting, government, and applied research. This volume presents contemporary perspectives on the science, policy, and practice of sediment assessment, emphasizing that effective sediment management depends on understanding the physical, chemical, and biological processes that control contaminant fate, exposure, and ecological risk. This foundation also supports consideration of sediment ecosystem services, beneficial reuse, and circular economy principles in modern management strategies.
