Rainfall-induced peaks in pesticide concentrations can occur rapidly. Low frequency
sampling may therefore largely underestimate maximum pesticide concentrations and …

This study reports on the occurrence and behaviour of six pesticides and one metabolite in a
small stream draining a vineyard catchment. Base flow and flood events were monitored in …

In this study, the passive sampling strategy was evaluated for its ability to improve water
quality monitoring in terms of concentrations and frequencies of quantification of pesticides …

In many agricultural catchments of Europe and North America, pesticides occur at generally
low concentrations with significant temporal variation. This poses several challenges for …

In agricultural watersheds, pesticide contamination in surface water mostly occurs during
stormflow events. When modelling pesticide fate for risks assessment, the application timing …

Abstract Synthetic Plant Protection Products (PPPs) are a key element for a large part of
today's global food systems. However, the transport of PPPs and their transformation …

Following agricultural application, pesticides can enter streams through runoff during rain
events. However, little information is available on the temporal dynamics of pesticide toxicity …

Biocides and pesticides are designed to control the occurrence of unwanted organisms.
From their point of application, these substances can be mobilized and transported to …

Short-term pollution events via runoff are typical of streams in agricultural areas. Existing
runoff models that simulate pesticide loss from agricultural fields require extensive input of …

Few studies have examined the exposure of small streams (< 30 km 2 catchment size) to
agriculturally used pesticides, compared to large rivers. A total of 105 sites in 103 small …
