  • Prompt

    Assess students' ability to apply watershed-scale hydrologic and nutrient modeling (e.g., SWAT) to design, implement, and evaluate best management practices (BMPs) for reducing agricultural nitrogen loads to a coastal estuary; scope includes model setup and calibration, selection and parametrization of BMP scenarios (e.g., cover crops, riparian buffers, nutrient management), interpreting outputs for load reductions and flow pathways, conducting sensitivity/uncertainty and cost-effectiveness analyses, and recommending monitoring and adaptive management strategies.
