Abstract:
... Quantifying spatial and temporal fluxes of phosphorus (P) within and among agricultural production systems is critical for sustaining agricultural production while minimizing environmental impacts. To better understand P fluxes in agricultural landscapes, P‐FLUX, a detailed and harmonized dataset of P inputs, outputs, and budgets, as well as estimated uncertainties for each P flux and budget, was ...

Abstract:
... Evaluation of the sustainability of grain production systems requires knowledge of long-term crop yields, and edge-of-field runoff volumes and water quality. When measured data are limited, computer simulation models —calibrated and validated with the available data— are well suited for this type of inquiry. In this study, the Agricultural Policy Environmental Extender (APEX) model was used to inv ...

Goodwater Creek Experimental Watershed (GCEW), located in northeastern Missouri, is a high-runoff-potential watershed dominated by claypan soils. The objectives of this study were to: (i) summarize dissolved NH₄–N, NO₃–N, and PO₄–P f ...

Abstract:
... A module to simulate bacteria fate and transport in watersheds was first tested in SWAT 2000 and fully integrated into the SWAT2005 code. Since then, few investigators have utilized SWAT to model bacteria fate and transport in spite of bacteria being a major cause of streams impairment in the U.S. In this article, bacteria equations are briefly presented. Modeling applications, which range from 16 ...

Abstract:
... Year-to-year dynamics in weather affect both the timing of application and the potential hydrologic transport of pesticides. Further, the most commonly used pesticides dissipate in the environment during the growing season. Interactions among these factors – hydrology, timing of application and dissipation kinetics – hinder the detection of temporal trends in transport. It is increasingly importan ...

Abstract:
... Imparting knowledge of the physical processes of a system to a model and determining a set of parameter values for a hydrologic or water quality model application (i.e., parameterization) are important and difficult tasks. An exponential increase in the literature has been devoted to the use and development of these models over the years. Few articles, however, have been devoted to developing gene ...
