“…WaterPUCK will integrate several models (Fig. 2), such as a surface water model based on SWAT [14,[31][32][33][34][35][36], a groundwater flow model based on MODFLOW [37], a 3D-ecohydrodynamic model of the Bay of Puck called EcoPuckBay based on the POP code [27][28][38][39], and an agriculture calculator called CalcGosPuck [40]. WaterPUCK will include several capabilities described in the following sections.…”

Knowledge related to land-use management impacts on the Baltic Sea ecosystem is limited. The constant release of pollutants into water bodies has resulted in water quality degradation. Therefore, only the innovative approaches integrated with research will provide accurate solutions and methods for proper environment management and will enable understanding and prediction of the impacts of land-use in the Baltic Sea region. Modelling approaches have become essential to address water issues and to evaluate ecosystem management. There are many water quality models, but only a few work in the operational mode and only some of them can be used as an interactive tool for environmental management to assess the impact of pollution on water quality. This study presents a new approach for investigating the influence of pesticides and nutrient fluxes from agricultural holdings and land-use *

“…Although several previous studies showed promising results using SWAT as a hydrologic model under different environmental conditions (Baker and Miller, 2013;Brzozowski et al, 2011;Cheng et al, 2009;Cibin et al, 2010;Du et al, 2009;Galvan et al, 2007;Gül and Rosbjerg, 2010;Stehr et al, 2008;Thampi et al, 2010;Ullrich and Volk, 2009;Zhang et al, 2009Zhang et al, , 2011, it has seen only limited application in Brazil (Andrade et al, 2013;Aragão et al, 2013;Durães et al, 2011;Pinto et al, 2013;Strauch et al, 2012Strauch et al, , 2013Uzeika et al, 2012), specially at watersheds with low availability of environmental data.…”

“…One of the most popular models is Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) which was applied in Europe across a range of spatial scales: from the whole continent , to largest river basins [ČERKASOVA et al 2016;PAGLIERO et al 2014;PI-NIEWSKI et al 2016], meso-scale catchments [OSTOJ-SKI et al 2014;PINIEWSKI et al 2015] and small catchments [BRZOZOWSKI et al 2011;MARCINKOW-SKI et al 2013;MOLINA-NAVARRO et al 2014; SMA-RZYŃSKA, MIATKOWSKI 2016;ŚMIETANKA 2014]. An increasing interest in the model triggers more com-plex and challenging applications, especially concerning implementation of new remote sensing techniques and datasets [AL-DOUSARI et al 2010] or more detailed multi-site and multi-variable calibration approach [WOZNICKI et al 2016].…”

Journal of Water and Land Development. No. 31 p. 97-111. DOI: 10.1515/jwld-2016. AbstractThis study presents an application of the SWAT model (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) in two meso--scale catchments in Poland (Upper Narew and Barycz), contrasting in terms of human pressures on water quantity and quality. The main objective was multi-variable and multi-site calibration and validation of the model against daily discharge, sediment and nutrient loads as well as discussion of challenges encountered in calibration phase. Multi-site calibration and validation gave varied results ranging from very good (daily discharge) to acceptable (sediment, nitrogen and phosphorus loads in most of gauges) and rather poor (individual gauges for all variables) in both catchments. The calibrated models enabled spatial quantification of water yield, sediment and nutrient loads, indicating areas of special concern in terms of pollution, as well as estimation of contribution of pollution from different sources, indicating agriculture as the most important source in both catchments. During the calibration process a number of significant issues were encountered: (i) global vs. local parametrization, (ii) simulation of different pools of water quality parameters in reservoirs and streams and (iii) underestimation of NO 3 -N loads in winter due to farmers practices. Discussion of these issues is hoped to aid SWAT model users in Poland in a deeper understanding of mechanisms of multi-variable and multi-site calibration.
