Fig. 2. Isoline plot of soil temperature and moisture dependent DT50 for methabenzthiazuron (MBT) calculated according to Graham-Bryce (Wüstemeyer, 2000) and Boesten and van der Linden (1991), with reference DT50 = 162 d, {theta}ref = 0.39 cm3 cm–3, {alpha} = 0.01 K–1, ß = 0.2, and Tref = 20°C (Eq. [6]). Volumetric water contents were transformed to gravimetric values using a topsoil bulk density of 1.57 g cm–3.
