Abstract
⺠The fate of nitroaromatic and nitro-triazine compounds in soils is commonly modeled using highly empirical partition coefficients (KD). ⺠Theoretical considerations are discussed in terms of refining KD predictions through the development of mathematical functions with respect to soil properties. ⺠Solute sorption can vary with changes in sample handling and experimental procedures. ⺠Preliminary steady state transport experiments point to a link between the fate of munition constituents and soil fertility.
