Pesticde use in agriculture and non-agriculture settings has
increased dramatically over the last several decades. Concern about
adverse effects on the environment and human health has spurred an
enormous amount of research into their environmental behavior and
fate. Pesticides in Surface Waters presents a comprehensive summary
of this research. This book evaluates published studies that focus
on measuring pesticide concentration. The studies chosen include
peer reviewed scientific literature, government reports, laboratory
studies, and those using microcosms and artificial streams and
ponds. The authors used this information to develop their overview
of pesticide contamination of surface waters. The exhaustive
compilation of data along with the fundamental science make this
book essential for those involved in pesticide use, environmental
protection, water quality, and human or ecological risk assessment.
Pesticides in Surface Waters covers the results of actual studies,
sources of pesticides to surface water, fate and transport, and
environmental significance. Hundreds of data-packed tables, maps,
charts, and drawings illustrate the key points, making research and
application easy and cost effective.
