Abstract
The objectives have been the application and verification of the AGNPS model (Agricultural Non-Point Source Pollution Model) by Young et al. (1987, 1994) to assess runoff volume, sediment and nutrient yield in medium to large-sized watersheds (>1 km2) in Germany. The aim was to adapt the model to climate and land use conditions in Germany and to modify some model algorithms to improve description of transport processes (AGNPSm: modified AGNPS).
