| Summary: | The CREAMS nutrient submodel was modified to improve the prediction, of the nitrogen loss from a flat agricultural field with a fluctuating water table.The CREAMS nutrient submodal was modified by incorporating a water function in the CREAMS denitrification algorithm.The capability of the CREAMS nutrient submodel and modified CREAMS nutrient submodel in predicting nitrogen loss was evaluated by using linear regression analysis, t-test on the slope and intercept of the regression equation, standard deviation of differences, absolute average differences, and percent error.Observed data from an experimental plot near Baton Rouge, Louisiana, USA were used in this study.The modified model underestimated the total nitrogen losses by 2% compared to 35% overestimation by the CREAMS model.Overall performance of the modified model in predicting nitrogen losses was satisfactory. |
