Key findings (brief)
- Export of N and P from all the single land use/soil type plots was positively correlated with soil fertility and increased as land use intensity increased.
- Nutrient export rates for the nested catchments did not correlate well to land use.
- Average rainfall TN and TP concentrations were 0.38 and 0.04 mg/L respectively.
