The Economics of Sediment Management Using an Aggregate Model of a Large Agricultural Watershed
Abstract
dc:descriptionThis thesis describes an aggregate model of a large agricultural watershed, developed with the specific objective of modeling the interactions between farming decisions and the quantity of sediment delivered to the receiving surface water. The purpose for developing such a model is to combine it with an economic optimization model to enable analyses to pursue minimum cost land management strategies to control sediment.
