Soil-Air exchange controls on background atmospheric concentrations of organochlorine pesticides [PDF]
Soils are the major terrestrial reservoir of persistent organic pollutants, and thus net volatilization from soil, when it happens, may exert a control on the atmospheric occurrence and variability of organic pollutants.
