Modelling environment
Decoupled simulation of: nitrogen leaching (DAISY -
code developed at the Royal Veterinary and Agricultural University);
integrated surface water and groundwater flow (MIKE SHE WM and MIKE 11 - code developed at DHI);
integrated nitrogen transport and degradation (MIKE SHE AD - code developed at DHI);
MIKE SHE
Physically based integrated hydrological modelling system for the entire land based hydrological cycle
Strong groundwater component with surface water interaction
MIKE 11 river model integrated
Solute transport modelling in all components of the hydrological cycle

DAISY
Open and flexible, physically based agro-ecosystem modelling system (water, nitrogen and pesticides)
Changes in crop yield as a function of water and nitrogen availability under various agricultural management practices.

For each combination of soil type, management practice (e.g. crop or crop rotation) and climate region, which should be included in the simulation, data must be specified.

All data on detailed or

from regional
models to local
sub-models.
Data level - Nitrogen load
Detailed data on local scale, i.e. information on farmers or field level on soils, crops, nutrients, farming practice etc.
Statistical data at regional scale, i.e. statistical information is dis-aggregated to produce realisations of likely distributions of “model” parameters
Case study: Karup, DK
Catchment characteristics: Area: 518 km2; Precipitation: 900 mm Pot. Evaporat.: 610 mm Run off: 451 mm; Mainly agricultural
areas; Alluvial sediments; Sandy, unconfined
regional aquifer; Little groundwater
exploitation; Large interaction
between river and aquifer system;

NO3- leaching - validation
Nitrate measured and modelled at 57 locations in various depths;
graphs show mean
+/- one standard deviation of both measured and modelled results;
correspondence is impressive!
Infiltration
Water/pressure: the pressure
propagation from ground surface to water table takes about 4-5 months (depth to GW table 15 m);
Solutes: solute transport
through the unsaturated zone takes about 3-4 years;
Results: NO3- concentrations
NO3- :
large spatial variations both horizontally and vertically;
variations due to crop, fertilizer and agricultural management differences as well as hydrological and hydrogeological conditions;
Results: NO3- concentrations
NO3- :
large temporal variations with characteristic annual variation;
about 50% reduced before it reaches streams;
10-20 mg NO3-/l in
stream;

Conclusions
Modelling environment developed for simulation of nitrogen load, leaching, balance and transport through the unsaturated zone and the groundwater;
model codes based on sound physical principles and equipped with user friendly GUI’s or GIS interfaces;
applicable for detailed analyses of soil processes and both local and regional scale analyses of impact from agriculture on water quality in groundwater and surface water;
methods extensively used in DK and abroad both for simulation of recharge to non-integrated groundwater models and for simulation of nitrogen balance;
