Abstract
The environmental dynamics of pesticides are influenced largely by the various factors operating in the environment and the physicochemical and biological properties of pesticides. In the broad sense, the environment is divided into four major components, namely, atmosphere (air), hydrosphere (water), lithosphere (soil), and biosphere (biota), each possessing its own physical and chemical and/ or biological properties. The biotic and abiotic elements in each component influence the dynamics of pesticides. The environmental dynamics of pesticides are further influenced by the physicochemical properties of pesticides. Such properties of pesticides as hydro- or lipo-philicity, partition coefficients, adsorption or chemiosorption, vapor pressure, and volatility determine the ultimate fate of pesticides in the living and nonliving portions of the sytems.
