Chemical specific analysis of these samples enables an examination of the environmental evolution of the reservoir system since sediments sequester metals derived from both natural and anthropogenic sources and isotopic sediment chronology provides the temporal dimension.<\/p><div id=\"attachment_7020\" style=\"width: 160px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/umweagleeye.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/3451\/files\/2011\/07\/Giancarlo-Leanna101.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7020\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-7020\" src=\"http:\/\/umweagleeye.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/3451\/files\/2011\/07\/Giancarlo-Leanna101-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Leanna Giancarlo\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/webarchive.umw.edu\/eagleeye\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2011\/07\/Giancarlo-Leanna101-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/webarchive.umw.edu\/eagleeye\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2011\/07\/Giancarlo-Leanna101-70x70.jpg 70w, https:\/\/webarchive.umw.edu\/eagleeye\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2011\/07\/Giancarlo-Leanna101-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\"><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-7020\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Leanna Giancarlo<\/p><\/div><div id=\"attachment_40431\" style=\"width: 160px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/umweagleeye.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/3451\/files\/2013\/07\/Kisila-Ben05.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40431\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-40431\" src=\"http:\/\/umweagleeye.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/3451\/files\/2013\/07\/Kisila-Ben05-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Kisila, Ben05\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/webarchive.umw.edu\/eagleeye\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2013\/07\/Kisila-Ben05-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/webarchive.umw.edu\/eagleeye\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2013\/07\/Kisila-Ben05-70x70.jpg 70w, https:\/\/webarchive.umw.edu\/eagleeye\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2013\/07\/Kisila-Ben05-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\"><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-40431\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ben Kisila<\/p><\/div><p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ben Odhiambo Kisila, associate professor of Earth and Environmental Science, and Leanna Giancarlo, associate professor of Chemistry, have had their collaborative study, &ldquo;Sediment trace metals and PCB input history in Lake Anna, Virginia, USA,&rdquo;
