Abstract
ABSTRACT: A significant portion of all pollutants entering surface waters (streams, lakes, estuaries, and wetlands) derives from non‐point source (NPS) pollution and, in particular, agricultural activities. The first step in restoring a water resource is to focus on the primary water quality problem in the watershed. The most appropriate NPS control measures, which include best management practices (BMPs) and landscape features, such as wetlands and riparian areas, can then be selected and positioned to minimize or mitigate the identified pollutant(s). A computer‐based decision sup. port and educational software system, WATERSHEDSS (WATER, Soil, and Hydro‐Environmental Decision Support System), has been developed to aid managers in defining their water quality problems and selecting appropriate NPS control measures. The three primary objectives of WATERSHEDSS are (1) to transfer water quality and land treatment information to watershed managers in order to assist them with appropriate land management/land treatment decisions; (2) to assess NPS pollution in a watershed based on user‐supplied information and decisions; and (3) to evaluate, through geographical information systems‐assisted modeling, the water quality effects of alternative land treatment scenarios. WATERSHEDSS is available on the World Wide Web (Web) at http://h2osparc.wq.ncsu.edu.

The first step in restoring a water resource is to focus on the primary water quality problem in the watershed. The most appropriate NPS control measures, which include best management practices (BMPs) and landscape features, such as wetlands and riparian areas, can then be selected and positioned to minimize or mitigate the identified pollutant(s). A computer‐based decision sup. port and educational software system, WATERSHEDSS (WATER, Soil, and Hydro‐Environmental Decision Support System), has been developed to aid managers in defining their water quality problems and selecting appropriate NPS control measures. The three primary objectives of WATERSHEDSS are (1) to transfer water quality and land treatment information to watershed managers in order to assist them with appropriate land management/land treatment decisions; (2) to assess NPS pollution in a watershed based on user‐supplied information and decisions; and (3) to evaluate, through geographical information systems‐assisted modeling, the water quality effects of alternative land treatment scenarios. WATERSHEDSS is available on the World Wide Web (Web) at http://h2osparc.wq.ncsu.edu.</div></front></TEI><istex><corpusName>wiley</corpusName><author><json:item><name>D. L.

The first step in restoring a water resource is to focus on the primary water quality problem in the watershed. The most appropriate NPS control measures, which include best management practices (BMPs) and landscape features, such as wetlands and riparian areas, can then be selected and positioned to minimize or mitigate the identified pollutant(s). A computer‐based decision sup. port and educational software system, WATERSHEDSS (WATER, Soil, and Hydro‐Environmental Decision Support System), has been developed to aid managers in defining their water quality problems and selecting appropriate NPS control measures. The three primary objectives of WATERSHEDSS are (1) to transfer water quality and land treatment information to watershed managers in order to assist them with appropriate land management/land treatment decisions; (2) to assess NPS pollution in a watershed based on user‐supplied information and decisions; and (3) to evaluate, through geographical information systems‐assisted modeling, the water quality effects of alternative land treatment scenarios. WATERSHEDSS is available on the World Wide Web (Web) at http://h2osparc.wq.ncsu.edu.</p></abstract><textClass xml:lang="en"><keywords scheme="keyword"><list><head>keywords</head><item><term>decision support system</term></item><item><term>best management practices</term></item><item><term>geographical information systems</term></item><item><term>spatially distributed water quality model</term></item><item><term>water resource systems</term></item><item><term>watersheds</term></item><item><term>water quality</term></item></list></keywords></textClass></profileDesc><revisionDesc><change when="1997-04">Published</change></revisionDesc></teiHeader></istex:fulltextTEI><json:item><extension>txt</extension><original>false</original><mimetype>text/plain</mimetype><uri>https://api.istex.fr/document/027E80BF3B32B587F91D0285170FEED141B61CDF/fulltext/txt</uri></json:item></fulltext><metadata><istex:metadataXml wicri:clean="Wiley, elements deleted: body"><istex:xmlDeclaration>version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"</istex:xmlDeclaration><istex:document><component version="2.0" type="serialArticle" xml:lang="en"><header><publicationMeta level="product"><publisherInfo><publisherName>Blackwell Publishing Ltd</publisherName><publisherLoc>Oxford, UK</publisherLoc></publisherInfo><doi origin="wiley" registered="yes">10.1111/(ISSN)1752-1688</doi><issn type="print">1093-474X</issn><issn type="electronic">1752-1688</issn><idGroup><id type="product" value="JAWR"></id><id type="publisherDivision" value="ST"></id></idGroup><titleGroup><title type="main" sort="JOURNAL OF AMERICAN WATER RESOURCES ASSOCIATION">JAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association</title></titleGroup></publicationMeta><publicationMeta level="part" position="04002"><doi origin="wiley">10.1111/jawr.1997.33.issue-2</doi><numberingGroup><numbering type="journalVolume" number="33">33</numbering><numbering type="journalIssue" number="2">2</numbering></numberingGroup><coverDate startDate="1997-04">April 1997</coverDate></publicationMeta><publicationMeta level="unit" type="article" position="0032700" status="forIssue"><doi origin="wiley">10.1111/j.1752-1688.1997.tb03513.x</doi><idGroup><id type="unit" value="JAWR327"></id></idGroup><countGroup><count type="pageTotal" number="15"></count></countGroup><eventGroup><event type="firstOnline" date="2007-06-08"></event><event type="publishedOnlineFinalForm" date="2007-06-08"></event><event type="xmlConverted" agent="Converter:BPG_TO_WML3G version:2.3.5 mode:FullText source:HeaderRef result:HeaderRef" date="2010-04-07"></event><event type="xmlConverted" agent="Converter:WILEY_ML3G_TO_WILEY_ML3GV2 version:3.8.8" date="2014-01-28"></event><event type="xmlConverted" agent="Converter:WML3G_To_WML3G version:4.1.7 mode:FullText,remove_FC" date="2014-10-23"></event></eventGroup><numberingGroup><numbering type="pageFirst" number="327">327</numbering><numbering type="pageLast" number="341">341</numbering></numberingGroup><linkGroup><link type="toTypesetVersion" href="file:JAWR.JAWR327.pdf"></link></linkGroup></publicationMeta><contentMeta><countGroup><count type="referenceTotal" number="23"></count><count type="linksCrossRef" number="12"></count></countGroup><titleGroup><title type="main">WATERSHEDSS: A DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR WATERSHED‐SCALE NONPOINT SOURCE WATER QUALITY PROBLEMS<link href="#fn1"><sup>1</sup></link></title></titleGroup><creators><creator creatorRole="author" xml:id="cr1" affiliationRef="#a1"><personName><givenNames>D.

The first step in restoring a water resource is to focus on the primary water quality problem in the watershed. The most appropriate NPS control measures, which include best management practices (BMPs) and landscape features, such as wetlands and riparian areas, can then be selected and positioned to minimize or mitigate the identified pollutant(s). A computer‐based decision sup. port and educational software system, WATERSHEDSS (WATER, Soil, and Hydro‐Environmental Decision Support System), has been developed to aid managers in defining their water quality problems and selecting appropriate NPS control measures. The three primary objectives of WATERSHEDSS are (1) to transfer water quality and land treatment information to watershed managers in order to assist them with appropriate land management/land treatment decisions; (2) to assess NPS pollution in a watershed based on user‐supplied information and decisions; and (3) to evaluate, through geographical information systems‐assisted modeling, the water quality effects of alternative land treatment scenarios. WATERSHEDSS is available on the World Wide Web (Web) at http://h2osparc.wq.ncsu.edu.</abstract><note type="content">*Paper No. 96046 of the Journal of the American Water Resources Association (formerly Water Resources Bulletin).
