  1. Nutrient Center watersheds Began with WE38 and Mahantango Creek watersheds First runs have been done in Manokin also

  2. Mahantango Creek and WE38 • Mahantango, 419km2 drains to Susquehanna • WE38, 7.2km2 headwater watershed of Mahantango • Agriculture lands in valley bottoms and lower slopes WE38 weir WE38 weather

  3. SWAT BootCampMarch 24, 2014 Not this SWAT? This SWAT!

  4. Everything is Awesome with SWAT Modeling with SWAT: A brief tutorial for members of Pennsylvania State University`s Center for Sustainable Nutrient Solutions

  5. HRU – VSA Field 5 Field 4 Field 3 Field 1 Field 2

  6. WE38 - detailed https://i.ytimg.com/vi/wx0SJM7FeEc/mqdefault.jpg http://www.extension.org/sites/default/files/w/4/4a/Spreading_manure.jpg

  7. Landuse Step-up into Mahantango Using generalized cropping patterns from WE38 to enhance cropland database for Mahantango Creek

  8. Outputs that helped us to give Team ?? what they need. Sediment (t/ha) Surface flow (mm) TP (kg/ha)

  9. Next steps – Spring Creek Spring Creek Likely to focus on Slab Cabin Run and/or Cedar Run

  10. Next steps – Conewago Creek Conewago Creek
