Goal
#3: Identify
influence of soil structure on the mobility of 17b-estradiol
in soil.
Objectives
- Use miscible-displacement column experiments to identify the transport mechanism in undisturbed soil profiles.
Particle size distribution and organic matter content was a major factor contributing to the fate and transport of these hormones
