Acknowledgments. Reviews of an earlier draft of the paper by Robert
Holst were quite helpful. Development of the chapter was funded by
contracts to Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) from the Strategic
Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP), Army
Research Office, and Engineering Research and Development Center
of the Corps of Engineers as well as by the USDA Forest Service. Oak
Ridge National Laboratory is managed by UT-Battelle, LLC. for the U.S.
Department of Energy under contract DE-AC05-00OR22725.
