Description
The general objective of this project proposal is therefore to develop a probabilistic modelling framework that allows to identify the priority chemicals for co-exposure risk at the watershed level. The environmental fate model at the core of this probabilistic framework is based on the model defined in Van Gils et al. 2020. The model was developed for Europe-wide spatial domain (EU28 Plus) but can be adapted to smaller spatial scales e.g. the Rhine and Danube river basins. The model was used in the past to predict the evolution over time of environmental concentrations for >5000 organic chemicals.
