\title{Calculate predicted environmental concentrations in sediment from surface
water concentrations}
\usage{
PEC_sw_sed(
  PEC_sw,
  percentage = 100,
  method = "percentage",
  sediment_depth = 5,
  water_depth = 30,
  sediment_density = 1.3,
  PEC_sed_units = c("µg/kg", "mg/kg")
)
}
\arguments{
\item{PEC_sw}{Numeric vector or matrix of surface water concentrations in µg/L for
which the corresponding sediment concentration is to be estimated}

\item{percentage}{The percentage in sediment, used for the percentage method}

\item{method}{The method used for the calculation}

\item{sediment_depth}{Depth of the sediment layer}

\item{water_depth}{Depth of the water body in cm}

\item{sediment_density}{The density of the sediment in L/kg (equivalent to
g/cm3)}

\item{PEC_sed_units}{The units of the estimated sediment PEC value}
}
\value{
The predicted concentration in sediment
}
\description{
The method 'percentage' is equivalent to what is used in the CRD spreadsheet
PEC calculator
}
\examples{
PEC_sw_sed(PEC_sw_drift(100, distances = 1), percentage = 50)
