Agricultural modifications of hydrological flows create ecological surprises
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2008Agricultural expansion and intensification have altered the quantity and quality of global water flows. Research suggests that these changes have increased the risk of catastrophic ecosystem regime shifts. We identify and review evidence for agriculture-related regime shifts in three parts of the hydrological cycle: interactions between agriculture and

Hydrologic and Sediment Transport Modeling of Agricultural Watersheds
Bridging the Gap, 2001Dealing with flooding, upland soil and streambank erosion, sedimentation, and contamination of water from agricultural, rural, and urban watersheds, and understanding the underlying natural processes are continued challenges to the environmental hydraulics field and in the management of sustainable water and environmental resources around the world ...

Nutrient Transport in an Agricultural Watershed as Affected By Hydrology
2003, Las Vegas, NV July 27-30, 2003, 2003Physical and chemical properties of nutrients combined with hydrological factors can dramatically affect nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) concentrations in and losses with streamflow from agricultural watersheds. In particular, adsorption and/or solubility of the different nutrient forms affect concentrations in subsurface drainage water, surface ...

Hydrologic and water quality impacts of agricultural drainage∗
Critical Reviews in Environmental Science and Technology, 1994While some of the world's most productive agriculture is on artificially drained soils, drainage is increasingly perceived as a major contributor to detrimental off‐site environmental impacts.

Hydrological heterogeneity in agricultural riparian buffer strips
Journal of Hydrology, 2017Riparian buffer strips (RBS) may protect surface water and groundwater in agricultural settings, although their effectiveness, observed in field-scale studies, may not extend to a watershed scale. Hydrologically-controlled leaching plots have often shown RBS to be effective at buffering nutrients and pesticides, but uncontrolled field studies have ...

New Research Directions in Agricultural Hydrology and Erosion
1989This paper addresses two rather contrasting areas of research that have developed rapidly during the last 10 years and that promise to have major impact on soil erosion control and agricultural hydrology.

Microwave remote sensing for hydrological and agricultural monitoring
1991Quantitative data about water conditions of soil and vegetation, can be obtained by using microwave sensors. The combined use of this technique with physically based hydrological models, can be employed for estrapolating punctual data over large areas.
