Sources of Pollutants in Urban Areas (Part 2) - Recent Sheetflow Monitoring
Abstract
Two research projects that examined source area sheetflows that were conducted in the 1990s are high-lighted in this chapter. These are a comprehensive project conducted in Birmingham, AL, as part of a project developing a control strategy for critical source areas, and a series of related projects conducted in Wisconsin as part of the DNR’s efforts in calibrating the Source Loading and Management Model (SLAMM). A bibliography of recent source area monitoring activities by other researchers is also included in this chapter.
These recent projects conducted in Alabama and Wisconsin are more comprehensive than the earlier monitoring efforts described in the previous chapter. These large projects included a wide range of land uses, source sources, and pollutants, in coordinated monitoring efforts. This information complements the data presented previously.
