AB  - An approach to incorporate the paddy field compartment into the newly developing 
      multimedia fate model "the National Institute for Agro-Environmental Sciences' 
      multimedia environmental fate model (NIAES-MMM-Global)" used to estimate the 
      long-term fate in global environment of current-use pesticides (CUPs) and 
      persistent organic pollutants (POPs) emitted from Japan and all of Asia is 
      presented here. Effects of the rice plant upon the overall environmental fate of 
      targeted chemicals such as CUPs and POPs are assessed by comparing the maximum 
      reservoir capacity (MRC) values calculated with and without the inclusion of rice 
      plants. Rice plants exert a marked effect on the environmental fate of these 
      chemicals and should be considered when paddy field is incorporated into 
      multimedia models to execute predictions that are more reliable. Moreover, the 
      results suggest that the seasonal changes of the rice plant should also be 
      reflected in the models. Accordingly, the scenario description for inclusion of 
      the paddy field compartment in the multimedia models is discussed.
