Assessing Phosphorus BMP Effectiveness in the Cannonsville Watershed Using SWAT 2000
Assessing best management practice (BMP) effectiveness in large basins is complicated by hydrologic variability, ecosystem complexity, and issues of scaling. A traditional approach to assessing BMP effectiveness in large watersheds is to forecast several BMP scenarios and compare their performance relative to a baseline scenario. While this approach may provide insight into the effectiveness of...
متن کاملOptimizing Best Management Practice Selection to Increase Cost-effectiveness
With Best Management Practices (BMPs) being used increasingly to control losses of major agricultural pollutants to surface waters, establishing the effectiveness of these practices has become important. A methodology was developed for determining cost-effective watershed scenarios. This technique combines three existing tools: a genetic algorithm (GA), a watershedlevel nonpoint source model (S...
متن کاملConsiderations and Approaches for Monitoring the Effectiveness of Urban BMPs
The purposes of this paper are to 1) describe some of the problems with typical Best Management Practice (BMP) monitoring and effectiveness reporting and to 2) suggest the utilization of consistent stormwater monitoring techniques. This will allow the data collected on the effectiveness of individual best management practices (BMPs), including retrofit BMPs, to be useful for a particular site, ...
متن کاملErosion Hazard Index Methodology (EHIM) for Streams Erodibility Assessment (Ardabil-Province)
An erosion hazard index methodology (EHIM) was developed for assessing stream erosion. The index of stream erosion is designed as a management tool. Assessing stream erosion involves consideration of a range of aspects of streams and a value judgment about a desirable state. The assessment of the erosion indicators of streams was based on a state-wide assessment of physical stream condition. A ...
متن کاملSaginaw Bay Integrated Watershed Prioritization and Management System
There are many reasons to develop a non-point source pollution prioritization system to determine which watersheds require the most attention. Once priority problem watersheds have been determined, an approach for directing specific actions is needed, i.e. targeting the specific areas of greatest potential erosion which can contribute to water quality degradation. Once targeted areas are identi...
