Spatial optimization of nutrient reduction measures on agricultural land to improve water quality: A coupled modeling approach

The objective of this study is to identify the optimal spatial distribution of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to reduce total phosphorus (TP) runoff from agricultural land in the largest Canadian watershed draining into Lake Erie, the Great Lake most vulnerable to eutrophication. BMP measures incl...
