Is there an urban pesticide signature? Urban streams in five US regions share common dissolved-phase pesticides but differ in predicted aquatic toxicity
Pesticides occur in urban streams globally, but the relation of occurrence to urbanization can
be obscured by regional differences. In studies of five regions of the United States, we …
