Environmental Fate Modeling

Environmental Fate Modeling is a scientific process used to predict how chemicals, such as pollutants or pesticides, move and change in the environment over time. It considers factors like how quickly a substance breaks down, how it spreads through air, water, or soil, and how it interacts with plants and animals. These models help researchers and regulators assess potential environmental impacts, ensuring the safe use of chemicals and guiding efforts to protect ecosystems and human health. Essentially, it's a tool for understanding and predicting the environmental journey of substances after they are released.
