摘要

A significant fraction of the dosage of plant protection products applied in agriculture may volatilize after application. Bystanders and residents may be directly exposed to the vapour from these products. In addition, the vapour may deposit onto non-target surfaces such as ditches and private garden, sometimes leading to indirect exposure. The goal of this study is to assess exposure of humans and non-target surfaces to vapour of plant protection products after application to crops. The emission model PEARL has been coupled to the atmospheric dispersion model OPS. The special version of OPS applied here allows assessment of dispersion of gaseous substances nearby surface sources. The volatilisation of plant protection products from a crop fully covering the surface is first calculated using PEARL, which provides the emission strength for OPS. The coupling ensures a consistent use of meteorological conditions that drive the models. Two hypothetical products with different vapour pressure are considered. Five-year time series of weather conditions in The Netherlands are used. Exposure assessment is based on a series of weekly applications during the growing season (April-October). Thus, a wide range of meteorological conditions is covered. Exposure is evaluated at various distances from the treated fields. Timing of the application is varied to demonstrate the possibility to evaluate effects of differing application scenarios on exposure. Like expected exposure is sensitive to the vapour pressure of the plant protection product. Volatilization generally reaches a maximum within 24 hours after the application and shows a fast decline thereafter. However, depending on the weather conditions and the competing processes such as penetration in plant tissue, emission peaks may be postponed and volatilization may continue for several days after the application, up to a week. In spite of the fact that application in the evening hours results in lower emissions, atmospheric concentrations are calculated to be higher than when the plant protection product is applied in the morning. Stable atmospheric conditions in the evening strongly reduce atmospheric mixing. PEARL-OPS can also be used to assess exposure at a regional scale, for multiple applications varying in space and time. The gaseous deposition pattern of plant protection products around treated fields, evaluated for an example region in the North of the Netherlands, is strongly influenced by the surface characteristics. However, the definition of these surface characteristics is highly uncertain and needs further study.
