Abstract
The QUASH UE-Project was designed to assess the reliability of normalisatio n approaches to compensate the influence of natural processes affecting the distribution and concentration of contaminants in sediment. The focus of t his paper was to test the influence on normalisation procedures of an inorg anic matrix using a sample collected in the Venice Lagoon, Italy.
