Book Modeling Phosphorus Transport in Soil and Water

Download or read book Modeling Phosphorus Transport in Soil and Water written by Joumana Abou Nahra and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The ability of the NICA model to describe phosphate (PO4) adsorption to soil particles was tested using soils collected from agricultural fields in southern Quebec. The surface charge and PO4 adsorption capacity of these soils were measured. Results were used to estimate the NICA model parameters using a non-linear fitting function. The NICA model accurately described the surface charge of these soils and the PO4 adsorption processes." --

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite advances in modeling, such as graphical user interfaces, the use of GIS layers, and databases for developing input files, the approaches to modeling phosphorus (P) have not changed since their initial development in the 1980s. Current understanding of P processes has evolved and this new information needs to be incorporated into the current

Book Modeling Dissolved Phosphorus Transport from Agricultural Watersheds in Central New York

Download or read book Modeling Dissolved Phosphorus Transport from Agricultural Watersheds in Central New York written by Josephine Anne Archibald and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important cause of freshwater contamination in the United States, soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) loss from agriculture often occurs when overland runoff transports phosphorus (P) from manures and fertilizers to receiving waters. Because of the importance of overland runoff in transporting P, models that allow us to pinpoint the location and timing of overland runoff are an important tool for reducing SRP transport in overland runoff. We created a simple regional model that allows us to predict the timing and location of runoff in the northeastern United States. In addition, we conducted soil box experiments which indicate that SRP concentrations decline rapidly over time after manure fertilization, and this decline in P availability is affected by temperature. We developed an SRP model which predicts the SRP concentration after manure application, which, combined with the spatially explicit watershed model, allows for prediction of SRP loss from agriculture under a variety of manure timing scenarios. We find that in a 326 km2 watershed where farmers apply P to match crop needs, simply changing the timing of manure application to avoid periods of runoff have the potential to reduce manure-derived SRP in runoff by up to 40%. iii.

Book Modeling Water Flow and Phosphorus Fate and Transport in a Tile drained Clay Loam Soil Using HYDRUS  2D 3D

Download or read book Modeling Water Flow and Phosphorus Fate and Transport in a Tile drained Clay Loam Soil Using HYDRUS 2D 3D written by Shuang Ye Qiao and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Phosphorus (P) is an important agricultural non-point source pollutant that could contribute to eutrophication of surface waters. In this study, the HYDRUS (2D/3D) model was evaluated for simulation of water flow and P transport in a clay loam soil in southern Ontario. The model was calibrated and validated using field data from two 0.1 ha test plots between 2008-2011. These plots have controlled tile drainage and a corn-soybean crop rotation. The surface and sub-surface water flows in test plots were monitored and samples collected continuously year round using an auto-sampling system. The model simulated water flow and P relatively well, with weekly modeling efficiency of 0.513 to 0.738 for validation of water flow, and weekly modeling efficiency of 0.587 to 0.768 for validation of dissolved P loss in tile drainage. Most of the deviation of simulated water flow occurred between November to February, which suggests the model would greatly benefit from optimization of snow dynamics and frozen soil conditions. Some of the simulation errors may also be attributed to soil cracking in the summer which consequently enhanced macropore flow. The model predicted daily water flow poorly, suggesting presence of time lag between simulation and measurements. Limitations of the model include lack of simulation of particulate P loss and surface runoff P loss. This model should be tested further for other soils in southern Ontario as well as other parts of Canada before its validity can be established. " --

Book Phosphorus Transport in Rivers

Download or read book Phosphorus Transport in Rivers written by and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research work contained in this report concerns the transport of total phosphorus and orthophosphorus to Lake Erie. The various calculational techniques for analyzing data obtained from Lake Erie tributaries are presented. These calculations were developed to determine the source of the phosphorus and to quantify the input to the lake. The source and quantity of phosphorus devised for Lake Erie. The first section of this report presents the basic concepts, mass balances (that applied to the water and that applied to the phosphorus), and force relationships. The second section of this report concerns the quantification of total phosphorus input to Lake Erie river basins and shortline sources. A computational method called the Flow Interval Method was devised to permit the calculaion of total phosphorus influx without measuring the total phosphorus concentration for the entire year. Another important aspect of reducing total phosphorus influx from river basins is the understanding of the transport processes in rivers. The third section of this report concerns the transport of total phosphorus during storm events. The fourth section of this report presents the derivation of the necessary equations used to calculate the distance of the travel density function form measurements of the water flow rate and the total phosphorus concentrations at a point in the stream.

Book Sources  Fate  and Transport of Nitrogen and Phosphorus in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed

Download or read book Sources Fate and Transport of Nitrogen and Phosphorus in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed written by Scott W. Ator and published by Geological Survey (USGS). This book was released on 2011 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spatially Referenced Regression on Watershed Attributes (SPARROW) was used to provide empirical estimates of the sources, fate, and transport of total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP) in the Chesapeake Bay watershed, and the mean annual TN and TP flux to the bay and in each of 80,579 nontidal tributary stream reaches. Restoration efforts in recent decades have been insufficient to meet established standards for water quality and ecological conditions in Chesapeake Bay. The bay watershed includes 166,000 square kilometers of mixed land uses, multiple nutrient sources, and variable hydrogeologic, soil, and weather conditions, and bay restoration is complicated by the multitude of nutrient sources and complex interacting factors affecting the occurrence, fate, and transport of nitrogen and phosphorus from source areas to streams and the estuary. Effective and efficient nutrient management at the regional scale in support of Chesapeake Bay restoration requires a comprehensive understanding of the sources, fate, and transport of nitrogen and phosphorus in the watershed, which is only available through regional models. The current models, Chesapeake Bay nutrient SPARROW models, version 4 (CBTN_v4 and CBTP_v4), were constructed at a finer spatial resolution than previous SPARROW models for the Chesapeake Bay watershed (versions 1, 2, and 3), and include an updated timeframe and modified sources and other explantory terms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited book, Soil Contamination - Current Consequences and Further Solutions, is intended to provide an overview on the different environmental consequences of our anthropogenic activities, which has introduced a large number of xenobiotics that the soil cannot, or can only slower, decompose or degrade. We hope that this book will continue to meet the expectations and needs of all interested in diverse fields with expertise in soil science, health, toxicology, and other disciplines who contribute and share their findings to take this area forward for future investigations.
