During compaction, this interstitial water is pressed out of pore spaces.
2.
Intercalated between adjacent sheets are interstitial water ( H 2 O ) groups.
3.
Below a few centimeters from the surface the interstitial water ( water between sediment ) is oxygen free.
4.
The carbon steel of rebars is protected from oxidation by atmospheric oxygen by the high pH of concrete interstitial water.
5.
Inclusions of water may be present in fast-grown crystals; interstitial water molecules are abundant near the crystal seed.
6.
The bioavailable concentration in interstitial water can then be compared to an established water-based effect concentration and used to predict the likelihood of adverse effects.
7.
Experiments have demonstrated that toxicological effects of benthic organisms are not only correlated to interstitial water concentrations, but also to sediment concentrations when expressed on a microgram chemical / gram OC basis.
8.
C OC is the organic carbon normalized sediment concentration ( micrograms per kilogram OC ) and C " d " is the dissolved interstitial water concentration ( milligrams per liter ).
9.
Thus, the freely dissolved interstitial water concentration of nonionic organic chemicals can be predicted using the K OC, the organic carbon-water partition coefficient, which is a constant for each chemical:
10.
Sea-ice algal communities can be found between ice crystals or attached to them, in the interstitial water or brine channels between ice crystals, or simply associated with the undersurface of the ice.
