Options for meeting WFD targets beyond 2015 in a highly polluted river basin in Germany

Heidecke, Claudia; Wagner, Andrea; Kreins, Peter; … - European Association of Agricultural Economists - EAAE - 2014

The Weser River Basin will most likely not meet European water framework directive nitrogen concentration targets by 2015. We use the AGRUM model network connecting hydrological and nutrient transport models with a German agricultural sector model to analyse current and future nitrogen surplus...

Community Governance: An Alternative Approach to Regulation and Market Mechanisms for Management of Nitrogen Loss

Parsons, Oliver - New Zealand Agricultural and Resource Economics Society … - 2012

The National Policy Statement on Freshwater Management now requires that water quality objectives and limits be set for all water bodies in New Zealand. Where objectives result in the development of nitrate limits for waterways and development pressure is likely to make these limits difficult to...

Agricultural costs for reducing nitrogen surpluses in the Weser river basin

Heidecke, Claudia; Kreins, Peter - European Association of Agricultural Economists - EAAE - 2010

Agriculture is to a large part responsible for nitrate leaching into groundwater and rivers in Germany, especially in highly intensive agricultural regions. To evaluate the link between nitrogen surpluses from agriculture and nutrient leaching into ground- and surface waters, a model network to...
