Pesticide Sorption on Geologic Material of Varying Organic Carbon Content (Journal Version)

摘要

Sorption of three pesticides on geologic material ranging in organic carbon content from 0.33 to 6.9 g/kg was measured in soil columns using a miscible displacement technique. An octanol-water partitioning model was shown to be inappropriate for predicting sorption of the less hydrophobic pesticides on the low organic carbon materials.
