Atmospheric transport and deposition of pesticides: An assessment of current knowledge

摘要

The current knowledge on atmospheric transport and deposition of pesticides is reviewed and discussed by a working group of experts during the Workshop on fate of pesticides in the atmosphere; implications for risk assessment, held in Driebergen, the Netherlands, 22-24 April, 1998. In general there is a shortage of measurement data to evaluate the deposition and re- Emission processes. It was concluded that the mechanisms of transport and dispersion of Pesticides can be described similarly to those for other air pollution components and these Mechanisms are rather well-known.
