摘要: Smokes, obscurants, and riot-control agents constitute a diverse group of chemical compounds that are released into the environment during military training exercises. Concern has been expressed over the use of these compounds and how they may affect threatened and endangered (T&E) species that reside on military installations. This literature review examines chemical analytical methods (standard and nonstandard) for isolating and detecting the components of smokes, obscurants, and riot-control agents from environmental media (both abiotic and biotic). The report identifies and evaluates possible analytical methods and recommends the methods that are best suited for measuring the analyte of interest. The intent of this report is to provide a basis or starting point for performing analysis on field samples. The unattached Appendices of this report contain the recommended analytical methods, both standard and nonstandard. The Appendices also include methods for sample collection, transport, storage, and preparation. Volume 1 of this series will be an overview of the entire study and will include information on applicable regulations. Volume 2 (USACERL Technical Report 97/140, September 1997) reviews methods for assessing ecological risks. Volume 3 will discuss strategies for developing a statistically sound approach to assessing the effects of military smokes, obscurants, and riot-control agents.
