The article discusses how to estimate the amount of pollution entering water bodies from non-point sources. This is important for creating plans to improve water quality. The researchers focus on simulating the concentrations of pollutants in streams that flow into lakes and reservoirs using computer techniques. By knowing these concentrations, they can estimate the amount of pollution coming from non-point sources. This information is crucial for developing effective plans to reduce pollution in water bodies.
