| Abstract |
The Maumee River was chosen by PLUARG (Pollution From Land Use Activities Reference Group) to be one of four pilot watersheds to be studied on the U.S. side of the Great Lakes drainage basin as part of Task C--pilot watershed studies. The objectives of PLUARG were to determine the effects of prevailing land use practices on pollution entering the Great Lakes. The Maumee River Basin is primarily agricultural in land use, and the intensive crop production in the Basin accounts for most of the sediment and a major part of the nitrogen and phosphorus delivered to Lake Erie (Corps of Engineers, 1975; Sonzogni et al, 1978). Because of the importance of agriculture as a source of pollutants in the Maumee Basin, it was decided to place emphasis in the Task C project on soil and nutrient loss from small agricultural watersheds and on specialized studies on sediment transport. |
