A. Lynn Wood is a Soil Scientist in EPA’s Office of Research and Development, National Risk Management Research Laboratory. He has conducted extensive research into the transport of organic contaminants in both aqueous solutions and complex mixtures. Wood’s area of research is dense nonaqueous phase liquids and flux-based site management. His recent research involves the development and evaluation of innovative technologies for characterization and remediation of soils and aquifers contaminated with nonaqueous phase liquids (NAPLs). He has field tested a variety of innovative techniques for extracting NAPLs from the subsurface, including methods that enhance solubilization, mobilization, or volatilization of the contaminants.
