Abstract/Contents:"Organic carbon partition coefficients derived from mineral soils do not accurately predict pesticide sorption to turfgass thatch. We examined the sorption capacity of two pesticide metabolites to 11 thatch samples, and measured the carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) content of each sample to determine if the atomic ratios of the three elements could be used to predict the sorption capacity of thatch. The sorption of naphthalene and 1-napthol was invariant of the O/C and (O+N)/C content of thatch as well as to organic carbon content of thatch. Sorption was positively correlated to the N/C ratio of thatch with 48% of the variation being explained by the ratio. Our results suggest that the state of organic matter decomposition within thatch, as measured by the N/C ratio, is a better predictor of the pesticide sorption to thatch than is the amount of organic carbon present in thatch."
