This 72-page Nonpoint Source Water Contamination module was published by the Advanced Technology Environmental and Energy Center (ATEEC) and is part of the Technology and Environmental Decision-Making series. This module explores the interconnectivity of surface water systems and the resulting relationship specific to a human system of agriculture and nonpoint source (NPS) contamination. This module presents a case study illustrating the NPS contamination and resulting hypoxia in the northern Gulf of Mexico, also known as the “Dead Zone.”
The module includes a table of contents and the following sections: Introduction, Contaminant Formation and Environmental Impact, Fate and Transport, Measuring and Monitoring: Health Effects and Risk Assessment, Decision-Making, Remediation, Case Study-The Northern Gulf of Mexico's "Dead Zone," and Aids to Understanding. Other modules in the Environmental Decision-Making Series are available to view separately.
