Abstract:
A terrestrial food chain model designed to predict foodstuff concentrations of PCDD/Fs from observed air and soil concentrations is described, and its efficacy evaluated by comparison of predicted and observed concentrations in specific foodstuffs and estimates of daily human exposure. The limitations of the model are discussed and future research requirements identified.
