Oxygen limitations and aging as explanations for the field persistence of naphthalene in coal tar-contaminated surface sediments

Naphthalene has been transported approx. 400 m via groundwater flow from buried subsurface coal tar to an organic matter‐rich seep area where the water emerges at the foot of a hill in a field study site. We have tested several hypotheses for explaining why naphthalene persists in seep sediments. In...
