REGFLUD combines the agro-economic model RAUMIS for estimating nitrogen surpluses and the hydrological models GROWA/DENUZ for assessing the nitrate leaching from the soil. The areas showing predicted nitrate concentrations in percolation water above the EU groundwater quality standard of 50 mg NO3/l, have been identified as priority areas for implementing nitrogen reduction measures. For these "hot spot'' areas a backward modelling approach was used to quantify the maximal permissible nitrogen surplus levels in agriculture to guarantee a mean long-term nitrate concentration in percolation water below 50 mg NO3/l. Research work will directly support the implementation of the EU-Water Framework Directive in the Weser basin, e.g. by using the maximal permissible nitrogen surplus levels as a framework for the derivation of regionally adapted and hence effective nitrogen reduction measures.}, keywords = {J (WoSType)}, cin = {ICG-4}, ddc = {570}, cid = {I:(DE-Juel1)VDB793}, pnm = {Terrestrische Umwelt}, pid = {G:(DE-Juel1)FUEK407}, shelfmark = {Soil Science}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, UT = {WOS:000269686900005}, doi = {10.1007/s10705-009-9248-9}, url = {https://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/5097}, }
