| General Comments: | The primary focus of this study was on RZWQM simulations of corn stover removal within cropping systems established in central Iowa. However, comparisons with previous SWAT results for the St. Joseph River Watershed (see watershed description) were also included as part of the overall study analyses. The SWAT results were previously reported in: Cibin, R., Trybula, E., Chaubey, I., Brouder, S. and J.J. Volenec. 2016. Watershed scale impacts of bioenergy crops on hydrology and water quality using improved SWAT model. Global Change Biology Bioenergy. 8(4): 837-848. Doi: 10.1111/gcbb.12307. |
