EML Databases and Sample Archives Taking sediment cores in Alaska. EML provides access to comprehensive computer databases of published data from its current and historic environmental programs. EML also maintains and provides access to the Department of Energy's Human Subjects Research Database. EML maintains an extensive library of samples associated with its research programs, in some cases going back well over 40 years. Sample types in the archive include: human bone, animal tissue and bone, vegetation, milk and food ash, soil, lake water and sediment, seawater and aerosol filters. Over 70,000 samples, including filters obtained from altitudes ranging from sea level to high in the stratosphere, are presently in this archive. We are in the process of placing these sample inventories on-line. See EML's Global Sampling Network Factsheet (PDF) for an overview of the sampling program, and EML-300 for a thorough description of current sampling procedures. The Environmental Sample Archive and Internet Database Factsheet (PDF) and Technical Notes about the databases are also available. Please read the disclaimer before making use of any of the data presented herein.
