Results are presented on the solar, titanium-dioxide-photocatalyzed degradation of pesticides in rinse waters of agricultural sprayers and in heavily polluted well water. The half-life time of solar photomineralization in the 100 ppb to 50 ppm concentration range was less than 1 h for most of the pe

## Abstract This paper studies the feasibility of photocatalytic degradation of organophosphorus pesticides using thin films of TiO~2~. The results show that 0ยท65 ร 10^โ4^mol dn^โ3^ of dichlorvos, monocrotophos, phorate, parathion can be completely photocatalytically degraded into PO within a short
Clarifying lay views is a crucial step in characterizing the 'social construct' of global change. The article discusses lay perceptions of ecological risks associated with three global environmental change processes: (a) climate change, (b) ozone depletion, and (c) species loss. A psychometric risk
Working with Malaysian agricultural soils, high Freundlich adsorption distribution coefficients were observed for paraquat (28ร7 and 1419) and (K ads(f) ) glyphosate (83ร8 and 417) and lower values for 2,4-D (0ร57 and 5ร26) and lindane (2ร65 and 14ร1) in a sandy loam and a muck soil, respectively. D
