Short summary
This study demonstrates the effectiveness of winter cover crops for reducing nitrate loads using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT). It illustrates the following: (1) nitrate removal efficiency varies greatly by species, timing, and extent of winter cover crop implementation; and (2) nitrate exports vary based on edaphic and agronomic characteristics of the croplands upon which crops are planted.
This study demonstrates the effectiveness of winter cover crops for reducing nitrate loads using...
