Agroforestry buffers for nonpoint source pollution reductions from agricultural watersheds.
Despite increased attention and demand for the adoption of agroforestry practices throughout the world, rigorous long-term scientific studies confirming environmental benefits from the use of agroforestry practices are limited. The objective was to examine nonpoint-source pollution (NPSP) reduction as influenced by agroforestry buffers in watersheds under grazing and row crop management. The gr...
متن کاملMultiple Agents, and Agricultural Nonpoint-Source Water Pollution Control Policies
Assuming asymmetric information over farmer profits and zero transaction costs, prior literature has suggested that when regulating nonpoint source water pollution, a tax on management practices (inputs) can implement full-information allocations and is superior to a tax on estimated runoff. Using mechanism design theory under asymmetric information, this paper shows that under the same assumpt...
متن کاملNonpoint-Source Pollutant Load Reductions Associated with Livestock Exclusion
Cattle (Bos taurus) grazing on unimproved pastures can be a significant, yet often overlooked, source of pollutants to surface waters, especially when the cattle have unlimited access to streams in the pastures. Livestock exclusion from streams has been demonstrated to reduce sediment and possibly nutrient yield from streams draining pastures. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effec...
متن کاملIncluding Source-Specific Phosphorus Mobility in a Nonpoint Source Pollution Model for Agricultural Watersheds
Most widely used nonpoint source models associate pollutant loads almost exclusively with land use via pollutant export coefficients and some kind of runoff coefficient. Not surprisingly, the range of management options suggested by such models’ simulations are largely linked to changes in land use. This problem is addressed by developing models of dissolved phosphorus DP mobility for specific ...
متن کاملApplication of non-linear regression and soft computing techniques for modeling process of pollutant adsorption from industrial wastewaters
The process of pollutant adsorption from industrial wastewaters is a multivariate problem. This process is affected by many factors including the contact time (T), pH, adsorbent weight (m), and solution concentration (ppm). The main target of this work is to model and evaluate the process of pollutant adsorption from industrial wastewaters using the non-linear multivariate regression and intell...
