“…There are some studies related to the transport of glyphosate and AMPA by water erosion, however most of them focused only on the occurrence of these compounds in the water phase (runoff water), neglecting the particle phase (Daouk et al, 2013;Birch et al, 2011;Gregoire et al, 2010;Warnemuende et al, 2007;Siimes et al, 2006). Although glyphosate and AMPA adsorb strongly to soil particles and tend to concentrate mostly in the very top surface layer, only recently studies have focused in their particle-bound transport with runoff as well (Melland et al, 2016;Napoli et al, 2016;Yang et al, 2015a;Yang et al, 2015b). Moreover, all studies on water erosion have had their main focus on the potential contamination risk of aquatic systems, disregarding their off-site transport to adjacent fields.…”
