The fungicide boscalid occurred 2016 frequently and in high concentrations during rainfalls in the runoff of the loechernbach catchment (a 180 ha large vineyard catchment area in the southwest of Germany). The main objective of this study was to provide a catchment model to simulate the transport and transformation processes of boscalid. Based on this model, source areas of Boscalid residue pollution and its export pathways will be identified and provide urgently needed information for the development of water pollution control strategies.
