Fig. 4. Average antibiotic concentrations in runoff aqueous phase (top) and sediment solid phase (bottom). TC = tetracycline, CTC = chlortetracycline, STZ = sulfathiazole, SMT = sulfamethazine, ERY = erythromycin, TYL = tylosin, and MNS = monensin.

Fig. 5. Average rate of mass loss as a function of time in runoff aqueous phase (top) and sediment solid phase (bottom). TC = tetracycline, CTC = chlortetracycline, STZ = sulfathiazole, SMT = sulfamethazine, ERY = erythromycin, TYL = tylosin, and MNS = monensin.

Fig. 6. Average pseudo-partitioning coefficient as a function of time for TC, CTC, SMT, and MNS. Time had no impact on the pseudo-partitioning coefficients for STZ, ERY, and TYL, and therefore they are not shown. TC = tetracycline, CTC = chlortetracycline, SMT = sulfamethazine, MNS = monensin, STZ = sulfathiazole, ERY = erythromycin, and TYL = tylosin.
