Subject:
GLEAMS model; atrazine; fields; agricultural runoff; herbicide residues; seepage; losses from soil; nonpoint source pollution; metolachlor; Root Zone Water Quality Model; prediction; Maryland
Abstract:
... Seepage zones have been shown to be of critical importance in controlling contaminant export from agricultural watersheds. To date, no multipurpose agricultural water quality model has seepage zones incorporated into its process-level representations. We chose to test two widely used models of agricultural water quality, the Groundwater Loading Effects of Agricultural Management Systems (GLEAMS) a ...

Abstract:
... Improvements have been made in the pesticide component of the Root Zone Water Quality Model (RZWQM) since its release in 1999 for the Management System Evaluation Areas (MSEA) project. This study was designed to evaluate the herbicide leaching component of the model using data on subsurface drainage flow and herbicide leaching losses for a 6-year (1992 to 1997) period. A sensitivity analysis was c ...

Subject:
Bromus; acetochlor; adsorption; atrazine; best management practices; chlorpyrifos; cropland; filter strips; grasses; mass transfer; rain; runoff; sediment deposition; sediment transport; sediments; subsurface drainage; subsurface flow; Iowa
Abstract:
... Vegetative filter strips (VFS) have become an established best management practice during the last 25 years. This study examined the effectiveness of VFS of brome grass in central Iowa for reducing the mass transport of sediment and pesticides (atrazine, acetochlor, and chlorpyrifos) with surface runoff under natural rainfall conditions. Measurements of pesticide concentrations in water from a sin ...

Abstract:
... Identification of the major factors affecting herbicide transport through macropores improves our understanding of preferential flow and aids in the development and use of macropore-flow models, such as the Root Zone Water Quality Model (RZWQM). Recent research suggests that macropore-flow breakthrough time (bt) and the number of percolate-producing macropores (nmacro) affect herbicide concentrati ...

Abstract:
... Flow and concentrations of suspended sediment, nitrate-N, phosphate-P, atrazine, and metolachlor were monitored during the spring seasons of 1998 and 1999, primarily during storm events, at a tributary station (Big Ditch) and two main-stem stations (Fisher and Mahomet) of the Upper Sangamon River watershed in east central Illinois. These three stations respectively drain 98, 622, and 932 km 2 of m ...

6. Effectiveness of Vegetated Buffer Strips in Reducing Pesticide Transport in Simulated Runoff

Abstract:
... Several processes take place within vegetated buffer strips that affect their performance. To better understand these processes, a runoff study was conducted to evaluate vegetated buffer strips performance in reducing atrazine, metolachlor, and chlorpyrifos transport as affected by the drainage area to buffer strip area ratio. The simulated runoff water mixed with pesticide-treated soil was distri ...

Abstract:
... A study was carried out on water and pesticide transport in three calcareous soils (Perrine, Krome, and Chekika) of South Florida. Tritium and bromide were used as tracers for water flow and atrazine (2-chloro-4-ethylamino-6-isopropylamino-1,3,5-triazine) was used as a probe chemical representing neutral organic compounds. Atrazine sorption isotherms were linear for all soils, and atrazine transpo ...

Abstract:
... A 1-ha field plot with a sandy surface soil, located near Plains, Georgia, was studied for three years (from 1993 to 1995) to evaluate pesticide transport in the vadose zone. Vadose zone soil samples were collected 23 times: prior to the initial 1993 pesticide application, each year at approximately 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, and 44 days after pesticide application, each fall after harvest, and in the sprin ...
