+ <h2>Description</h2>
+
+ <p>This is a basic calculation of a contaminant concentration in bulk soil
+based on complete, instantaneous mixing. If an interval is given, an
+attempt is made at calculating a long term maximum concentration using
+the concepts layed out for example in the PPR panel opinion (EFSA 2012).</p>
+
+ </div>
+
+ <div class="Details">
+ <h2>Details</h2>
+
+ <p>This assumes that the complete load to soil during the time specified by
+&#39;interval&#39; (typically 365 days) is dosed at once. As in the PPR panel
+opinion cited below (PPR panel 2012), only temperature correction using the
+Arrhenius equation is performed.</p>
+
+ <p>Total soil and porewater PEC values for the scenarios as defined in the EFSA
+guidance (2015, p. 13) can easily be calculated.</p>
+
+ </div>
+
+ <div class="Note">
+ <h2>Note</h2>
+
+ <p>If temperature information is available in the selected scenarios, as
+ e.g. in the EFSA scenarios, the DT50 for groundwater modelling
+ (destination &#39;PECgw&#39;) is taken from the chent object, otherwise the DT50
+ with destination &#39;PECsoil&#39;.</p>
