Assess students' ability to apply best-management practices (BMPs) to reduce nutrient (N, P) and sediment runoff in a temperate agricultural watershed by evaluating transport processes, comparing BMP types (e.g., cover crops, buffer strips, conservation tillage, constructed wetlands, tile-drain management), designing placement and sizing, estimating expected load reductions and monitoring metrics, using simple modeling or scenario analysis, and weighing cost-effectiveness and implementation constraints to recommend adaptive management strategies.
