Pesticides in stream sediment and aquatic biota— Current understanding of distribution and major influences
Abstract
This report summarizes a comprehensive analysis of existing information on pesticides in bed sediment and aquatic biota of United States rivers and streams: their geographic distribution, sources, trends, environmental fate, and biological significance. It is one of a four-part series that synthesizes current knowledge and understanding of pesticides in the nation’s water resources as part of the National Water-Quality Assessment Program.
