The presenters will share their experiences from more than a decade of small-scale field-edge monitoring in Wisconsin and neighboring states. The webinar will include information on:

• Matching data quality and monitoring intensity with study objectives
• Challenges of change detection and alternative benefits of edge-of-field monitoring data
• Equipment selection, monitoring challenges
• Standard operating procedures used and working with fine-scale time-series data
• Sampling techniques
• Precipitation-runoff relations and water-quality characteristics of nutrients and sediment in edge-of-field runoff at livestock farms in Wisconsin
• Comparisons of runoff and water-quality data between surface and subsurface tiles
• How field conditions and the timing of field-management activities affect the quantity and quality of runoff from agricultural fields

Speakers:

• Matt Komiskey, Physical Scientist, U.S. Geological Survey / Wisconsin Water Science Center
• Todd Stuntebeck, Physical Scientist, U.S. Geological Survey / Wisconsin Water Science Center
