Abstract
Environmental modeling provides a reliable tool for assessing and evaluating impacts of agriculture on surface water systems.
In this context, state-of-the-art modeling concepts that can be used in an integrated modeling approach based on terrestrial and surface water models are reviewed.
The review focus on the techniques and underlying assumptions used to conceptualize and simulate the processes involved.
Selected compatible sets of environmental models for agricultural pollution assessments are also presented.
The paper concludes with an indication of topics for future research and model development.
