Display Name: WetlandsGeoprocessor

Description: Wetlands have often been described as the “Earth’s kidneys” because wetlands have the ability filter pollutants and purify water. Based upon wetland storage capacity, average daily flow, and inflow nutrient loading this model estimates potential load reductions of nitrate (NO3-) and orthophosphate (PO43-) from a constructed surface flow wetland (CW). The model relies upon equations, coefficients, and models provided by Cheng et al. 2020 and Cheng & Basu 2017. Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus are important nutrients to ecosystems, but high concentrations can lead to water quality issues. Major sources of these nutrients come from agricultural areas where fertilizer is applied in large quantitates and/or animal waste is present. Excess nitrate and phosphorus may result in overgrowth of algae, which can decrease the dissolved oxygen in water, thereby harming and killing fish and other aquatic species. This model evaluates water purification results and estimates cost to install a surface flow constructed wetlands.

Parameter: load_risk

Data Type: GPString
Display Name load_risk
Description: low: Drainage area dominated mostly by native vegetation and waterways support connected wetlands that provide habitat for a diversity of native plants, wildlife, and fish. Water is typically cool and clear year around.mid: Drainage area supports some farmlands, pasture/rangeland, and residential development. Most waterways have intact wetlands and/or natural vegetation that minimizes runoff discharge into streams. However, there may be some places where applied fertilizer, animal waste and sewage may reach waterways through runoff or seepage. The temperature of the water is typically cool and color can vary from clear to slightly cloudy. During warmer times of year, slow moving reaches or ponds within the system may turn slightly green due to algal growth. Wetland areas and riparian areas provide some habitat for native fish and wildlife, but may also harbor non-native species, especially rough fish.high: Streams within the drainage area subjected to high levels of runoff from intensive agricultural activities and other industrial activities, confined animal feeding operations, and/or municipal waste. Non-native vegetation is abundant and provide little to no benefit to native fish and wildlife. Most riparian areas within the system support non-native species and lack adequate vegetation buffers to prevent runoff into streams. The temperature of the water is usually cool to warm and water is cloudy from sedimentation and algal growth. During warmer times of year, slow moving reaches or ponds often require herbicide treatment to maintain flow and irrigation equipment operation.
