Assessing the migration and transformation of pesticides in the subsurface : the role of expert systems / by A.S. Crowe and J.P Mutch.: En13-5/90-57E-PDF
"The expert system described here is designed to aid regulatory personnel in their assessment of the potential for pesticides to contaminate the soil and groundwater environment. The expert system, known as EXPRES (EXpert system for Pesticide Regulatory Evaluation Simulations), consist of existing numerical models which are used to simulate the transport and transformation of pesticides in the unsaturated zone, coupled with a knowledge-based system that guides the user through the choice of all the necessary information for characterizing the geological, physical, climatic, hydrogeological, pedological and agricultural settings of typical agricultural regions across Canada, as required by the pesticide model"--Abstract.
