101 Environmental Fate, Transport, and Monitoring of Pesticides (includes student competition)

Oral Session
SSSA Division: Soils and Environmental Quality
Understanding the environmental fate and transport of pesticides is critical to prediction and assessment of the potential for non-target organism exposures and evaluation of environmental and human health risk. This session will discuss improvements in the knowledge base for evaluating pesticide degradation patterns and pathways, partitioning with soils, sediments, and aquifer materials, dissipation patterns via aerial and land transport, and improvements in environmental fate data collection for exposure modeling.
