Learned Discourses: Timely Scientific Opinions Assessing the Reliability of Physico-Chemical Property Data (Kow, Sw) for Hydrophobic Organic Compounds: DDT and DDE as a Case Study
The fate of a chemical in the environment is primarily controlled by the physico-chemical properties of the substance, prevailing environmental conditions, and patterns of use (Mackay et al. 1997).
