Church Creek Watershed: An Illustration of the Application of Microcomputers for Estimating the Effects of Land Use Changes on Nutrient and Pollutant Loading

摘要

Land use planners must channel demands for land use within a watershed so that a proper balance can be maintained between an individual's right to develop his land versus society's obligation to preserve the environment for future generations. This report discusses one approach that land planners may wish to use to help them achieve a reasonable distribution of land use.
