Winter-Time View Over a Subsurface MTBE Contamination Plume
Detailed Description
Winter-time view over a subsurface methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) contamination plume near Ronan, Montana. USGS scientists have demonstrated that MTBE can degrade even in the cold temperatures of winter. The contaminated ground water will ultimately discharge to a local, spring-fed stream, seen in the background.
