Abstract/Contents: | "One of the areas of turf management on golf courses which is receiving significant attention from environmental groups as well as the turf industry is the impact of fertilization on surface and ground water quality. The concerns center on the potential for fertilization practices to affect: 1)leaching of nitrates into ground waters, affecting drinking water quality and 2) movement of nitrates and phosphorus into surface waters which can result in growth of weeds and algae, degrading water quality." Discusses the results of a study done on Mitchell Creek in Traverse City, MI. |
