Environmental sampling involves the systematic collection of samples from various environments, such as air, water, soil, or sediments, to analyze their composition and detect pollutants or microorganisms. The process typically includes selecting sampling sites, determining the appropriate sampling methods and tools, and ensuring proper handling and preservation of samples to avoid contamination. Once collected, samples are analyzed using various laboratory techniques to assess environmental quality and identify potential risks to health and ecosystems. The data obtained helps inform policy decisions and environmental management strategies.
