“…Pharmaceuticals that contaminate soils may subsequently leach to groundwater (e.g., Burri et al, 2019;Godfrey et al, 2007;Fram and Belitz, 2011;Lesser et al, 2018;Li, 2014;Loos et al, 2010) or can be taken up by plants (e.g., Ahmed et al, 2015;Al-Farsi et al, 2017;Christou et al, 2019;Goldstein et al, 2014;Klement et al, 2020;Kodešová et al, 2019aKodešová et al, , 2019bLi et al, 2018Li et al, , 2019aLi et al, , 2019bMalchi et al, 2014;Montemurro et al, 2017;Mordechay et al, 2018;Shenker et al, 2011;Winker et al, 2010;Wu et al, 2013). Further propagation of pharmaceuticals in the environment depends on their sorption and dissipation in the vadose zone (e.g., Carter et al, 2019;Kümmerer, 2009aKümmerer, , 2009bZhi et al, 2019). The knowledge of the properties characterizing sorption and dissipation of various pharmaceuticals in this environment is crucial, for example, when using models simulating transport of these compounds in soils and their uptake by plants (e.g., Brunetti et al, 2019).…”
