Outflow

Pesticide is removed from the reach segment in outflow. The amount of dissolved and particulate pesticide removed from the reach segment in outflow is:

pstsol,o=QFdpstrchwtrVpst_{sol,o}=Q*\frac{F_d*pst_{rchwtr}}{V} 7:4.1.13

pstsorb,o=QFppstrchwtrVpst_{sorb,o}=Q*\frac{F_p*pst_{rchwtr}}{V} 7:4.1.14

where pstsol,opst_{sol,o} is the amount of dissolved pesticide removed via outflow (mg pst), pstsorb,opst_{sorb,o} is the amount of particulate pesticide removed via outflow (mg pst), QQ is the rate of outflow from the reach segment (m3^3 H2_2O/day), FdF_d is the fraction of total pesticide in the dissolved phase, FpF_p is the fraction of total pesticide in the particulate phase, pstrchwtrpst_{rchwtr} is the amount of pesticide in the water (mg pst), and VV is the volume of water in the reach segment (m3^3 H2_2O).
