Landscape Assessment of Nutrient Loading to Waterbodies (LANLoad-NEEPP)

The flow of water and fate and transport of nutrients across terrestrial landscapes is a dynamic process governed by the interplay of hydrologic, geologic, and geomorphic parameters. In the Northern Everglades and Estuaries Protection Program (NEEPP) region, we developed the Landscape Assessment of Nutrient Loading to Waterbodies (LANLoad-NEEPP), a GIS-based decision-support tool designed to assess the potential for a location to contribute to nutrient loading to the nearest waterbody...Read On
