Fig. 3. Elution of fluometuron from a replicate conventional till (CT) native vegetation (top) and no till (NT) native vegetation (bottom) core. Best-fits of Eq. [1] and [2] to average concentrations in leachate from each rain event are shown as step functions (optimized values for first-order degradation rate constants used).
