Scenarios and Model Describing Fate and Transport of Pesticides in Surface Water for Danish Conditions

Abstract
The report presents different scenarios for assessment of the occurrence of pesticides in surface water, for moraine clay and sandy soils in Denmark. The processes investigated and the background for the selection of areas are described, and a review is given of the parameterisation of process descriptions. Examples are shown of the mass balances for water and substances. Model systems deviate from the FOCUS surface water scenarios in that they are calculated in a coupled model system, by simulating a larger number of years, and by including a fully defined catchment area.

The Danish Environmental Protection Agency will, when opportunity offers, publish reports and contributions relating to environmental research and development projects financed via the Danish EPA.

Please note that publication does not signify that the contents of the reports necessarily reflect the views of the Danish EPA.

The reports are, however, published because the Danish EPA finds that the studies represent a valuable contribution to the debate on environmental policy in Denmark.
