University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
Modeling
-
Watershed-based hydrologic and sediment transport, ISWS -
Distributed modeling of erosion by overland flow
Monitoring
To assess the impact of increased implementation of conservation practices the monitoring program is based on a paired watershed approach (e.g., Court Creek with Haw Creek as a reference watershed)
- Biological and stream habitat at upper and lower subwatersheds: INHS
(map of monitoring sites locations)
- Fish
- Banthic Macroinvertebrates
- Habitat assessment
- Hydrologic and water quality: ISWS (map of monitoring sites locations)
- Hydrologic measures: water level, streamflow, discharge
- Nutrient concentration: Nitrate-N, Ammonia, Phosphate
- Suspended sediment concentration
This project is supported by C-FAR IT-SRI and Illinois Department of Natural Resources
