  2. Missouri 1mi 0 Better Locations for Buffers?

  3. Missouri 1mi 0 Soil Survey

  4. Missouri 1mi 0 Sediment Trapping Efficiency STE (%) 10-25 25-50 50-75 75-100 Not Farmable Water

  5. Sediment Trapping Efficiency (%) STE = 100 – 85 e -1320 (SF) Sediment Factor = D50 / R K L S (104) Validation & Calibration Sediment

  6. Sediment STE = 100 – 85e -1320 (SF) Sediment Factor = D50 / R K L S (104) Dissolved Groundwater 1. Interaction – Hydric + Shallow WT 2. Interaction – Hydric + Deep WT 3. Interaction – Not Hydric + Shallow WT 4. No Interaction – Not Hydric + Deep WT WTE = 97 (IF) 0.26 Infiltration Factor = Ksat2 / R L S Three Functions
