When micropollutants degrade in the environment, they may form persistent and toxic
transformation products, which should be accounted for in the environmental risk …

Organophosphate esters (OPEs) have proven to be pervasive in aquatic environments
globally. However, understanding their partitioning behavior and mechanisms at the …

Insight into the sorption mechanism of pentachlorophenol (PCP) was gained by constructing
highly detailed isotherms over the widest possible concentration range. Using the dual …

The study of estuaries and coasts has seen enormous growth in recent years, since changes
in these areas have a large effect on the food chain, as well as on the physics and chemistry …

The current life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) of chemicals focuses only on the fate and
effects of the parent compound, neglecting the potential impact of transformation products …

Perfluorinated compounds impact the Earth's radiative balance. Perfluorotributylamine
(PFTBA) belongs to the perfluoroalkyl amine class of compounds; these have not yet been …

This paper presents the atmospheric occurrence and seasonal variations of the most
frequently detected organophosphorus insecticides (OPs) and their OP oxon degradation …

The aim of this study was to determine whether nested generic box models can be used to
predict spatial variance. An inter-comparison study was performed for the nested box model …

A model formulation based on “aquivalence”, as defined in terms of activity is presented to
estimate the multimedia fate of ionizing chemicals. The aquivalence approach is analogous …

Multimedia fate models have proven to be very useful tools in chemical risk assessment and
management. This paper presents BasinBox, a newly developed steady-state generic …
