Partitioning and Bioavailability (2005)
Book Chapter
Philp, J., Stainsby, F., & Dunbar, S. (2005). Partitioning and Bioavailability. In Water encyclopedia. Wiley. https://doi.org/10.1002/047147844x.pc441

As soon as a chemical is spilled it becomes a pollutant, but the fate of that pollutant depends to a large degree on its chemistry, which determines how it will partition to various “compartments,” or phases, of the environment. This idea is enshrine... Read More about Partitioning and Bioavailability.
