Semi-Field Methods for the Environmental Risk Assessment of Pesticides in Soil

Based on discussions at the 2007 SETAC Europe PERAS Workshop in Coimbra, this book summarizes the higher tier terrestrial risk assessment of plant protection products (PPPs). Influential regulators, academics, and industry scientists provide a comprehensive, science-based view to guide regulatory authorities and manufacturers in assessing the higher tier terrestrial risks of PPPs in the environment. It examines various types of semi-field methods for soil assessment, including the use of terrestrial model ecosystems for pesticide risk assessment. In addition, the text explores legislative and regulatory issues and offers technical recommendations.
