Nitrous Oxide Emission and Denitrification in Chronically Nitrate‐Loaded Riparian Buffer Zones
Journal of Environmental Quality, 2003ABSTRACTRiparian buffer zones are known to reduce diffuse N pollution of streams by removing and modifying N from agricultural runoff. Denitrification, often identified as the key N removal process, is also considered as a major source of the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O).

Retention of sediments and nutrients in buffer zones with different riparian vegetation
2020<p>In Norway, eutrophication is a major problem for freshwater quality, mainly due to excess phosphorus (P) inputs from agricultural areas. Hence, vegetated buffer zones along water bodies have been used for decades to reduce soil and phosphorus losses from agricultural land to waterbodies.

Modeling and monitoring riparian buffer zones using LiDAR data in South Carolina
Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2020Functional riparian areas protect water quality and conserve aquatic systems, plants, and wildlife. Laser-based remote sensing technology offers a high-resolution approach to both characterize and document changes in riparian buffer zones (RBZs). The objectives of this study were to demonstrate a rapid method and model to calculate riparian buffer ...

Impact of riparian buffer zones on water quality and associated management considerations
Ecological Engineering, 2005Recent attention has focused on riparian forest buffer systems for filtering sediment, nutrients, and pesticides entering from upland agricultural fields. This paper summarizes the results of a field monitoring study done in Tokachikawa watershed in Hokkaido, Japan, Cisadane, Cianten and Citamyang sub-watersheds in Indonesia and Cauvery watershed ...

Using riparian Zone scaling to optimize buffer placement and effectiveness
Landscape Ecology, 2017Riparian buffers reduce subsurface nutrient losses to streams but there is a clear need to identify and prioritize locations for riparian buffer placement to optimize buffer performance. Scaling relations can be used to extrapolate hydrologic behavior within river networks and across catchments.

Effect of Vegetation Management on Bird Habitat in Riparian Buffer Zones
Southeastern Naturalist, 2008Riparian buffers can be valuable refuge areas for wildlife in otherwise homogeneous agricultural landscapes. Government sponsored programs like the Cropland Reserve Program generally require the planting of specifi c vegetative spe- cies during buffer restoration, although the effectiveness of such an approach when compared to restoration by volunteer ...
