EML Regional Baseline Station at Chester, NJ, 1987--1990
The Environmental Measurements Laboratory (EML) has maintained a field station at Chester, NJ, since 1976. Located 64 kilometers west of EML, the site is on the property of Bell Communications Research and is a little more than 900 square meters in area. The Chester site is a rural facility which provides us with an opportunity to carry out ``regional baseline`` research and to test field instruments. In order to meet our special need the technical criteria for such a field station area the following. The site should represent a ``regional`` pollution condition; that is, no significant local pollution sources should be present. The terrain should be relatively flat with minimal rock outcroppings. The soil cover should not have been disturbed for at least 30 years. This report updates the various programs underway at Chester and presents data that have become available since the last report.
