This study comprises a critical review of modeling of pesticides in surface waters. The aim
was to update the status of the use of models to simulate the fate of pesticides from diffuse …

Sediment and phosphorus (P) are two primary pollutants of surface waters. Many studies
have investigated loadings from upland sources or even streambed sediment, but in many …

Buffer strips on agricultural land have been shown to protect surface water quality by
reducing erosion and diffuse pollution. They can also play a key role in nature conservation …

Pesticides applied to slo** farmland may lead to surface water contamination through
rapid transport processes as influenced by the complex topography and high spatial …

The sedimentological connectivity of agricultural catchments may be affected by
anthropogenic structures (land management practices) established to reduce sediment …

BACKGROUND One of the most important sources of pesticide pollution of surface waters is
runoff and erosion from agricultural fields after rainfall. This study analyses the efficacy of …

Best management practices (BMPs) are the most effective and practicable means to control
nonpoint source (NPS) pollution at desired levels. Models are valuable tools to assess their …

Streambank retreat can be a significant contributor to total sediment and nutrient loading to
streams. Process-based bank stability models, such as the Bank Stability and Toe Erosion …

The most widely implemented mitigation measure to reduce transfer of surface runoff
pesticides and other pollutants to surface water bodies are vegetative filter strips (VFS).. The …

The effectiveness of vegetative buffer strips (VBS) for reducing herbicide transport has not
been well documented for runoff prone soils. A multi‐year plot‐scale study was conducted …
