AREAS OF RESEARCH ACTIVITIESAREAS OF RESEARCH ACTIVITIESE al ation of the en ironmental impact of pesticides on ater andEvaluation of the environmental impact of pesticides on water and
soil in agricultural ecosystems, based on:
1 Modelling for prediction of:1. Modelling for prediction of:• Fate and environmental behaviour of pesticides
(multicompartment models, leaching indices)P t ti l i k f ti id ( i t l i di t ) b d• Potential risk of pesticides (environmental indicators) based on their physicochemical properties and toxic effects on different organisms representative for environmental systems
2. Sampling of environmental matrices in the field
AREAS OF RESEARCH ACTIVITIESAREAS OF RESEARCH ACTIVITIESDevelopment of Decision Support Systems through an adequate
selection of pesticides and pollution risk mapping
Probability of groundwater contamination by pesticides
0 – 25 %
26 – 50 %
51 – 75 %%
76 – 100 %
By considering specific pesticide characteristics and local environmental conditions, this contributes to a support system for pesticide selection ensuring a sustainable use of pesticidespesticide selection ensuring a sustainable use of pesticides
