Land-use changes affect soil water balance. The Upper Grande River Basin (UGRB) headwaters have undergone intense modifications in land use. This study was conducted to simulate, using the LASH model, the impacts on the hydrological regime in the UGRB with five land-use trends: S<Subscript>1</Subscript> and S<Subscript>2</Subscript> –...</subscript></subscript>

There is a wide variety of approaches to whole farm models (WFMs) including purely biophysical models as well as models that combine biological and financial elements.
