Title | WRRCSR No. 7.1:85 Desorption and Leachability of Residual DBCP and EDB from Soils and Saprolite |
Creator | Green, Richard E. Peterson, Frank L. Buxton, Donna S. |
Subject | Groundwater -- Pollution -- Hawaii. Pesticides -- Environmental aspects -- Hawaii. |
Description | Pesticides applied to pineapple fields in central O'ahu to control nematode populations have been detected in groundwater drawn from the underlying aquifer. These nematicides have persisted in surface soils and deep saprolite despite their discontinued use. The leachability of these pesticide residues from soil and their subsequent movement will determine whether or not they constitute a continued threat to groundwater quality. In this study, leachability is assessed by sorption-desorption... Prepared for Hawaii State Legislature and Office of Environtmental Quality Control, State of Hawaii |
