Neumann, Klaus

Beginning in the 1970's there has been an increase in the public awareness of the quality of surface waters due to the increase of chemicals being applied to farmland and an increase in soil erosion. Nutrient losses associated with agricultural activities have an adverse effect on surface and subsurface drainage water by increasing nitrate, phosphate and dissolved organic carbon (DOC). In recent years there has been more research in comparing conventional till (CT) soil management practices to those of no till (NT) soil management practices. The results of the implementation of NT soil management practices are changes in subsurface drainage, river recharge, and nutrient fluxes. The change in nutrient fluxes associated...
ScienceBase brings together the best information it can find about USGS researchers and offices to show connections to publications, projects, and data. We are still working to improve this process and information is by no means complete. If you don't see everything you know is associated with you, a colleague, or your office, please be patient while we work to connect the dots. Feel free to contact sciencebase@usgs.gov.
