Effect of the area on the performance of low impact development practices placed at catchment-scale under long-term simulation

Abstract Previous studies highlighted the effectiveness of Low Impact Development (LID) practices in reducing urban surface runoff, but their long-term performance at different implementation areas remains unclear. This study addresses this gap by simulating surface runoff reduct...

Modeling of the Accumulated Nitrogen Loss by Volatilization in Topdressing Fertilization in Corn Plants

ABSTRACT Corn cultivation is one of the most important in the world. Urea possesses a high concentration of nitrogen, which is very important to corn crops, is easily handled, and has a lower cost per kilogram of nitrogen, but it presents high losses of this nutrient through vola...
