+# Calculate predicted environmental concentrations in sediment from surface water concentrations
+
+The method 'percentage' is equivalent to what is used in the CRD
+spreadsheet PEC calculator
+
+## Usage
+
+``` r
+PEC_sw_sed(
+ PEC_sw,
+ percentage = 100,
+ method = "percentage",
+ sediment_depth = set_units(5, "cm"),
+ water_depth = set_units(30, "cm"),
+ sediment_density = set_units(1.3, "kg/L"),
+ PEC_sed_units = c("µg/kg", "mg/kg")
+)
+```
+
+## Arguments
+
+- PEC_sw:
+
+ Numeric vector or matrix of surface water concentrations in µg/L for
+ which the corresponding sediment concentration is to be estimated
+
+- percentage:
+
+ The percentage in sediment, used for the percentage method
+
+- method:
+
+ The method used for the calculation
+
+- sediment_depth:
+
+ Depth of the sediment layer
+
+- water_depth:
+
+ Depth of the water body in cm
+
+- sediment_density:
+
+ The density of the sediment in kg/L (equivalent to g/cm3)
+
+- PEC_sed_units:
+
+ The units of the estimated sediment PEC value
+
+## Value
+
+The predicted concentration in sediment
+
+## Author
+
+Johannes Ranke
+
+## Examples
+
+``` r
+library(pfm)
+library(units)
+#> udunits database from /usr/share/xml/udunits/udunits2.xml
+PEC_sw_sed(PEC_sw_drift(100, distances = 1), percentage = 50)
+#> 2.130769 [µg/kg]
+```
