Views on the entry of organic pollutants into matter (OM) decaying process are divergent, and in part poorly understood. To clarify these interactions, pesticide dissipation was monitored mineral soils not adapted to contaminants for 241 days; groundwater sediment slurries pesticides 399 their sterilized counterparts with without peat (5%) or compost-peat-sand (CPS, 15%) mixture addition. The r...

A total 21 samples were taken at 11 locations 2 each Sava Krka rivers. We identified 15 their degra...

During 2017 the herbicides alachlor, atrazine, butachlor, metolachlor, and simazine were detected in water samples, beach sediments marine biota collected at Camps Bay, Cape Town, South Africa. that period, annual rain catchment record was 77,000 m3, whereas volume of chemically laden sewage discharged via outfall 693,500 m3 making by far most predominant source for these bay. The chemical load...
