Modelling Sediment Input to Surface Waters for German States with MEPhos: Methodology, Sensitivity and Uncertainty

Soil erosion on arable land and on steep vineyards is a major problem in the state of Hesse (21,115 km²) in central Germany. The aim of a joint study between the Research Centre Jülich, the Hessian Agency for the Environment and Geology and the Hessian Ministry for the Environment, Energy, Agricultu...
