Behavior of Pesticides in the Unsaturated Zone Adsorption and Transport Phenomena

  • Conference paper
Pollutants in Porous Media

Part of the book series: Ecological Studies ((ECOLSTUD,volume 47))

Abstract

In cultivated areas, where pesticides are applied, the soil is frequently unsaturated. Thus, it is important to know the behavior of organic agrochemicals in the unsaturated zone because of their potential pollution hazards.
