GeoPEARL workshop 2009:
Future Developments of Spatially-Distributed Pesticide Leaching Models in the EU
4-5 November 2009, Bilthoven, the Netherlands
Introduction
Spatially distributed pesticide leaching models are now commonly accepted in pesticide registration and policy evaluations.
One such model is the GeoPEARL model, which was originally developed for the Netherlands. GeoPEARL versions have been or will be developed
for other European Countries as well. To exchange information between model developers, the GeoPEARL team has organised a work shop with the following aims:
- to provide information about the application and development of the GeoPEARL model (e.g. the macropore version of GeoPEARL_NL, which is now operational);
- to promote the exchange of information and experiences between the various developers;
- to discuss problems encountered during development and find possible solutions;
- to indicate a roadmap towards a GeoPEARL version for the EU-27;
