Popis: | This thesis investigates the influence of the trophic status of a shallow freshwater system and/or the presence of persistent pollutants in the sediment on the fate and ecological effects of an insecticide and a fungicide/biocide. Additionally, this thesis aims to shed light on the influence of macrophytes and fish on the partitioning and redistribution of sediment-bound polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). PAHs and PCBs are predominantly ‘historical’ pollutants that accumulate in sediments and are rather persistent |
