Nitrogen Leaching in Small Agricultural Catchments
Kyllmar, K. 2004. Nitrogen Leaching in Small Agricultural Catchments Modelling and monitoring for assessing state, trends and effects of counter-measures. Doctoral thesis. ISSN 1401-6249, ISBN 91-576-6761-6. Nitrogen (N) leaching from arable land to the aquatic environment is considered a serious problem. Small agricultural monitoring catchments in Sweden were used for the application and testi...
متن کاملFate and Transport of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Upland Irish Headwater Lake Catchments
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a concern due to their carcinogenicity and propensity for transboundary atmospheric transport. Ireland is located on the western periphery of Europe and assumed to receive clean Atlantic air. As such, it has been used as an atmospheric reference for comparison to other regions. Nonetheless, few studies have evaluated concentrations of PAHs within the ...
متن کاملNitrogen dynamics in runoff from two small heathland catchments in Norway
Effects of contrasting climatic conditions and nitrogen (N) deposition levels on streamwater N dynamics are assessed at two small heathland catchments; Dalelva in northern Norway (69oN) and Øygard in southwestern Norway (58oN). The study comprises 11 years of data on climate, hydrology and N inputs/outputs from Dalelva and 8 years of corresponding data from Øygard. Both sites are comparable in ...
متن کاملManganese and land-use in upland catchments in Scotland.
Manganese (Mn) in surface waters is a micronutrient, but elevated concentrations are toxic to fish and impair drinking water quality. In Scotland, undesirable Mn concentrations (> 0.05 mg l(-1)) occur predominantly in upland freshwaters because the acidic pH and organic nature of catchment soils favour Mn mobilisation. The relationship between upland land-use in Scotland and Mn concentrations i...
متن کاملTransit times from rainfall to baseflow in headwater catchments estimated using tritium: the Ovens River, Australia
Headwater streams contribute a significant proportion of the total flow to many river systems, especially during summer low-flow periods. However, despite their importance, the time taken for water to travel through headwater catchments and into the streams (the transit time) is poorly understood. Here, H activities of stream water are used to define transit times of water contributing to strea...
