Sandy, loamy, and peat soils are characteristic for the catchment.
Therefore, the study recommends an irrigation plan for the catchment.
Few hydrological observations, however, exist for the catchment areas.
The runoff coefficient for the catchment was calculated as 0.1 (Table 2).
The overall mean NDVI value change for the catchment from 2000 to 2009 was 0.043.
For the catchment modelled, neglect of spatial heterogeneity caused relatively small differences in ENP retention.
NDVI values decreased from the year 2000 up to 2007 for the catchment compared to the wildlife reserve.
Like a doctor using a sophisticated medical scanner, the ICEGRAV scientists will then attempt to diagnose the future health prospects for the catchment.
For the catchment area of Lake Greifensee, an economic land-use model predicted land-use changes caused by agricultural policy.
The overall impact of these changes on the water yield has been evaluated for the catchment of the lake.
The sediment concentrations were then averaged to give the mean annual sediment concentration of 2,400 ppm (2,400 mg l−1) for the catchment.
