measuring salinity of water at different depths along six transacts at the mouth of the wetland and along five tributaries connecting the wetland to the sea the extent of caspian sea penetration into anzali wetland was determined. the results demonstrated a depth-dependent salinity gradient extending up to 10 kilometres into the wetland. a pattern of saltwater and freshwater interface is presen...

The paper discussed the research course of the non-point source pollution and the application of spatial information technology to the non-point source pollution. Then we collected some spatial information data such as terrain, soil, water system, land use and so on, used MUSLE equation supported by geographic information system to get the risk distributing map of the non-point source pollution...

the agricultural non-point source pollution shows some special features such as dispersion, randomness, fuzziness and cumulative compared with industry and other point source pollution. Owing to lacking complete and systematic data on agricultural sources of pollution in the long-term, Agricultural non-point source pollution load of the new method "IS (Investigation-Statistics) estimation metho...

Due to the high density of buildings and low quality of the drainage pipe network in the city, urban non-point source pollution has become a serious problem encountered worldwide. This study investigated and analyzed the characteristics of non-point source pollution in Baoding City. A simulation model for non-point source pollution was developed based on the Stormwater Management Model (SWMM), ...

This paper presents an incentive scheme to control agricultural non-point-source pollution. The analysis is based on a nested agent framework with three parties; farmers, a country’s government, and the governments of all countries that affect each other’s environmental quality. Unlike previous analysis of incentive schemes to control agricultural pollution, we suggest non-individual contracts ...

Improper land use is one major cause of non-point source pollution. Integrated modeling would support the evaluation and optimization of land use for the non-point source pollution control. In this study, the CLUE-S (the Conversion of Land Use and its Effect at Small regional extent) and SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) models were coupled to simulate pollution loads under different land u...

The goal is to develop an inverse model capable of simultaneously estimating the parameters appearing in an air pollution model for an instantaneous point source, by using measured gas concentration data. The approach taken was to develop the inverse model as a non-linear least squares estimation problem in which the source term is estimated using measurements of pollution concentration on the ...

Background & Aims of the Study: In this research, Long-Term Hydrologic Impact Assessment model is selected for simulation of runoff and NPS pollution. The aim of this study is modeling of non-point source pollution by L-THIA model in Zayandehrood watershed in 2015. Materials & Methods: In this study, analytical survey and investigation of references in the context of libr...
