daNUbs - Outlines of a Handbook for International Nutrient Balances on Catchment Scales in Austria, Hungary, Romania

This handbook is designed for nutrient management on larger catchment scales. The handbook is restricted to N and P only. The focus is on the management of nutrient emissions into the hydrosphere in order to abate eutrophication. In this handbook results from nutrient balancing in the Danube basin (size: app. 800000 km²) are presented. Results concerning nutrient balances for the time period 1998-2000 stem from the emission model MONERIS carried out for 388 catchments (< 100 km2 to >16000 km2) covering the whole Danube river basin.
