Study on Non-Point Source Pollution in the Agricultural Watershed

Abstract:

This paper gives a review on the study of related factors of non-point source pollution (NPS) in water cycle. Hydrological process features, underlying surface conditions, human activities are sorted to introduce the recent research on NPS progress. Several major factors are divided in each item with developing process. The NPS models in world are introduced as well. Additionally, control approaches for NPS and their effects are summarized. Furthermore, the potential trends of NPS study are discussed.
