Applications of Genomic Technologies to Ecological Risk Assessments at Remediation / Restoration Sites
How genomic technologies contribute to remediation programs now and in the future is the focus of this chapter. It first reviews the remediation and restoration or recovery process, the use of genomic technologies as the remediative process itself, and then identifies opportunities within remediation/restoration where genomic technologies can be used to resolve particular issues and how the research needs can be defined to achieve these goals. This chapter also explores the current regulatory needs that can be satisfied by genomic technologies research and potential field reliable techniques. From these needs and the current state of the science and projected technologies, Applications of genomic technology data and techniques derived from genomic data are explored in response to the need for assessment, remediation, and restoration.
