This paper presents an incentive scheme to control agricultural non-point-source pollution. The analysis is based on a nested agent framework with three parties; farmers, a country’s government, and the governments of all countries that affect each other’s environmental quality. Unlike previous analysis of incentive schemes to control agricultural pollution, we suggest non-individual contracts ...

The paper discussed the research course of the non-point source pollution and the application of spatial information technology to the non-point source pollution. Then we collected some spatial information data such as terrain, soil, water system, land use and so on, used MUSLE equation supported by geographic information system to get the risk distributing map of the non-point source pollution...

Due to the high density of buildings and low quality of the drainage pipe network in the city, urban non-point source pollution has become a serious problem encountered worldwide. This study investigated and analyzed the characteristics of non-point source pollution in Baoding City. A simulation model for non-point source pollution was developed based on the Stormwater Management Model (SWMM), ...

Improper land use is one major cause of non-point source pollution. Integrated modeling would support the evaluation and optimization of land use for the non-point source pollution control. In this study, the CLUE-S (the Conversion of Land Use and its Effect at Small regional extent) and SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) models were coupled to simulate pollution loads under different land u...

the agricultural non-point source pollution shows some special features such as dispersion, randomness, fuzziness and cumulative compared with industry and other point source pollution. Owing to lacking complete and systematic data on agricultural sources of pollution in the long-term, Agricultural non-point source pollution load of the new method "IS (Investigation-Statistics) estimation metho...

Background & Aims of the Study: In this research, Long-Term Hydrologic Impact Assessment model is selected for simulation of runoff and NPS pollution. The aim of this study is modeling of non-point source pollution by L-THIA model in Zayandehrood watershed in 2015. Materials & Methods: In this study, analytical survey and investigation of references in the context of libr...
