Fate of Aquatic Pesticides Used For Invasive Species Control in Lakes and Rivers

Описание к видео Fate of Aquatic Pesticides Used For Invasive Species Control in Lakes and Rivers

Pesticides are commonly used to control invasive species, such as Eurasian watermilfoil and the sea lamprey, in lakes and rivers in Wisconsin. It is important to understand how long these chemicals last in surface waters to limit impacts on non-target organisms. This presentation will explore the processes that influence the lifetime of several commonly used aquatic pesticides by relating laboratory experiments with field measurements. In addition to providing better understanding of the fate of these specific chemicals, this research provides insight into the behavior of other related organic chemicals in our surface waters.
