## Abstract The soil/sediment adsorption partition coefficient normalized to organic carbon (__K__~oc~) is extensively used to assess the fate of organic chemicals in hazardous waste sites. Several attempts have been made to estimate the value of __K__~oc~ from chemical structure or its parameters.

## Abstract A group contribution approach based on atomβtype electrotopological state indices for predicting the soil sorption coefficient (log __K__~OC~) of a diverse set of 201 organic pesticides is presented. Using a training set of 143 compounds, for which the log __K__~OC~ values were in the r
## Abstract A bioconcentration ratio (BCR) represents the ratio of the concentration of a chemical found in an exposed biological system, such as a plant or fish, to the concentration in the exposure medium (water, soil, or air). A comparison is made of the precision and accuracy of the molecular c
