Background The eutrophication of aquatic systems due to diffuse pollution of agricultural
phosphorus (P) is a local, even regional, water quality problem that can be found world …

Soil macropores largely control the transport of water and solutes in subsurface flows.
Preferential flow via soil macropores can substantially affect water quality. Hence, it is …

Purpose Preferential flow via soil macropores can have a large effect on water quality.
Hence, it is important to quantify soil macropore characteristics to better understand …

Repeated broiler litter application on agricultural lands can cause nutrient enrichment of
subsurface effluent, especially with the existence of preferential flow through soil …

Subsurface band application of poultry litter has been shown to reduce the transport of
nutrients from fields in surface runoff compared with conventional surface broadcast …

Improved knowledge on overland flow (OF) generation and its dynamics (ie spatial and
temporal variations) is essential to understand catchment hydrology, a prerequisite for better …

This study delineated spatially and temporally variable runoff generation areas in the Sand
Mountain region pasture of North Alabama under natural rainfall conditions, and …

The different peak discharge value estimated in the rational method (RM) model is caused
by the various methods used to determine the runoff coefficient (C) parameter. The C value …

Soil moisture dynamics have a significant effect on overland flow generation. Catchment
aspect is one of the major controlling factors of overland flow and soil moisture behaviour. A …

Nutrient buildup, mainly phosphorus (P), and loss from fields fertilized with poultry (broiler)
litter contribute to eutrophication of surface waters. In the US, broiler litter is typically surface …
