Description | Pesticide results from three sampling regimes during 2009 were compared: daily sampling for seven consecutive days; weekly sampling; and continuous sampling using a continuous low-level aquatic monitor (CLAM). Results compared pesticides detected during the current weekly sampling regime to seven days of consecutive sampling. The study results indicate that prior knowledge of the pesticide-use practices is needed to target specific pesticides. The current regime of weekly sampling throughout the application season captures a variety of pesticide detections. CLAM results showed inconsistent pump rates throughout the placement period; the device did provide information on the presence or absence of selected pesticides. | ||||
