The stability of a remediated bed in Hamilton harbour, Lake Ontario, Canada / Carl L. Amos, Ian G. Droppo and Tom Murphy.: En13-5/01-214E-PDF
"Many environmental contaminants have pathways that are partially or wholly associated with sediment and/or biological substrates. Consequently, on entering aquatic environments they find their way rapidly to the bed. An increase in bed shear stress can remobilize this material, with undesired effects on the aquatic environment. In situ remediation technologies are becoming increasingly popular for the “clean-up” of contaminated sediments. In this study, an in situ annular flume (Sea Carousel - Developed by C. Amos, Southampton Oceanography Center) was deployed in Hamilton Harbour, Lake Ontario, to investigate the impact of a remediation technology on contaminated sediment stability"--Management Perspective.
