Efficacy of the aforementioned approaches was evaluated with respect to the natural attenuation (no soil treatments) in three contiguous parcels cordoned off within a woodland located in Northern Italy (Pezzaze municipality, Brescia, Lombardy) and recently impacted by wildfire. The experimental plots were then monitored throughout the further nine months to figure out the dynamics of decay in soil concentration of toxic hydrocarbon
compounds, due to the adoption of the different remediation strategies.
