AB  - Contaminant concentrations in trees have been used to delineate groundwater 
      contaminant plumes (i.e., phytoscreening); however, variability in tree 
      composition hinders accurate measurement of contaminant concentrations in planta, 
      particularly for long-term monitoring. This study investigated in planta passive 
      sampling devices (PSDs), termed solid phase samplers (SPSs) to be used as a 
      surrogate tree core. Characteristics studied for five materials included 
      material-air partitioning coefficients (Kma) for chlorinated solvents, sampler 
      equilibration time and field suitability. The materials investigated were 
      polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), linear low-density 
      polyethylene (LLDPE), polyoxymethylene (POM) and plasticized polyvinyl chloride 
      (PVC). Both PDMS and LLDPE samplers demonstrated high partitioning coefficients 
      and diffusivities and were further tested in greenhouse experiments and field 
      trials. While most of the materials could be used for passive sampling, the PDMS 
      SPSs performed best as an in planta sampler. Such a sampler was able to 
      accurately measure trichloroethylene (TCE) and tetrachloroethylene (PCE) 
      concentrations while simultaneously incorporating simple operation and minimal 
      impact to the surrounding property and environment.
