Any concentration of a substance measured in a living or non-living
system results from its distribution among all of the environmental
compartments: air, water, sediments, and biota. The transfer of a
substance from one compartment to another is regulated by physical
forces and the chemical properties of the substance and also those
of the compartments. When transfer processes are nearly constant in
time, a substance will achieve predictable equilibria
distributions. It is of utmost importance that students,
environmental scientists, and policymakers understand the basic
processes which control the distribution of a substance in order to
interpret measurements obtained from within a limited number of
compartments.
