Thirty years of systematic land evaluation in the Netherlands (2010)

Sonneveld, M.P.W., Boogaard, H.L.

Thirty years ago, the third version of the land evaluation procedure by the Dutch Working Group for the Interpretation of Soil Maps (WIB-C) was published. This allowed for the first time a systematic...

Landscape properties as drivers for farm diversification: A Dutch case study (2009)

Pfeifer, C., Jongeneel, R.A., Sonneveld, M.P.W., Stoorvogel, J.J.

Farm diversification is stimulated by the societal demand to transform production countryside into consumption countryside. In most empirical studies on farmers¿ decision making for diversification,...

Validation of regression models for nitrate concentrations in the upper groundwater in sandy soils (2009)

Sonneveld, M.P.W., Brus, D.J., Roelsma, J.

For Dutch sandy regions, linear regression models have been developed that predict nitrate concentrations in the upper groundwater on the basis of residual nitrate contents in the soil in autumn. The...

'Gouden gronden' in de Noordelijke Friese Wouden (2009)

Sonneveld, M.P.W.

De overheid heeft in 2004 twintig Nationale Landschappen aangewezen. Samen vertellen ze een prachtig verhaal over de ontstaanswijze van Nederland. De bodem, vaak onzichtbare drager van het landschap,...

A Whole-Farm Strategy to Reduce Environmental Impacts of Nitrogen (2008)

Sonneveld, M.P.W., Schröder, J.J., Monteny, G.J., Mosquera, J., Hol, J.M.G., ...

Dutch regulations for ammonia emission require farmers to inject slurry into the soil (shallow) or to apply it in narrow bands at the surface. For one commercial dairy farm in the Netherlands it was...

Nitrogen management and nitrate leaching on some Dutch dairy farms (2008)

Sonneveld, M.P.W., Roelsma, J., Brus, D.J.

Previous high N surplus levels on Dutch dairy farms have stimulated investigations into more efficient ways of farming. Increases in N efficiencies are especially relevant for the Pleistocene sandy...

Farm Diversification in Relation to Landscape Properties (2008)

Pfeifer, C., Jongeneel, R., Sonneveld, M.P.W., Stoorvogel, J.J.

Current European Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) has been moving from production support subsidies to direct decoupled income support. The emergence in policy making of the concept of...

Soil water repellency in an old and young pasture in relation to N application (2008)

Sonneveld, M.P.W.

Ageing of pastures is likely to affect the degree of potential water repellency in the long term, whereas seasonal variation on a shorter term affects the actual repellency of soils. A 1-year study...

The role of scientists in multiscale land use analysis: lessons learned from Dutch communities of practice (2008)

Bouma, J., Sonneveld, M.P.W., Heuvelink, G.B.M., Stoorvogel, J.J.

Many research and scientific organizations emphasize the importance of science for society in their strategic plans. This is certainly true for land use studies being discussed in this chapter as new...

Effects of different diets on utilization of nitrogen from cattle slurry applied to grassland on a sandy soil in the Netherlands (2007)

Reijs, J.W., Sonneveld, M.P.W., Sorensen, P., Schils, R.L.M., Groot, J.C.J., Lantinga, E.A.

Dietary adjustments have been suggested as a means to reduce N losses from dairy systems. Differences in fertilizing value of dairy slurry as a result of dietary adjustments were evaluated in a...

Supporting decision making at the regional scale, an approach to put soil information in a stakeholder context (2006)

Sonneveld, M.P.W., Stoorvogel, J.J., Mora-Vallejo, A.P., Claessens, L.F.G., Antle, J.M.

Decision making at the regional level requires information that includes tradeoffs between different economic and environmental objectives. Soil evaluation at the regional scale has nowadays moved...

Mapping hydrological pathways of phosphorus transfer in apparently homogeneous landscapes using a high-resolution DEM (2006)

Sonneveld, M.P.W., Schoorl, J.M., Veldkamp, A.

Agriculture is a significant contributor to the diffuse loading of phophorus (P) in fresh water systems. At the landscape level, source areas and targeted surface waters are connected through...

Dynamic fertilizer management triggered by real-time simulations and weather conditions (2006)

Stoorvogel, J.J., Sonneveld, M.P.W., Serrano, E.

Typically, the guiding principle for fertilizer management is a rather fixed cropping calendar in which applications are given at fixed moments in time or at specific crop development stages. The...

Nutrienten management op het melkveebedrijf van de familie Spruit : studie naar bedrijfsvoering en milieukwaliteit : synthese rapport (2005)

Sonneveld, M.P.W., Bouma, J.

Onderzoek naar aanleiding van de reactie van de Stichting Gras en Wolken, die in 2003 ageert op het door LNV ingezette milieubeleid. Ook bij de totstandkoming van dit Wageningen UR rapport zijn de...

Multi-scale analysis of soil erosion dynamics in Kwazulu-natal, South Africa (2005)

Sonneveld, M.P.W., Everson, T.M., Veldkamp, A.

For a case study area in the Okhombe catchment in the province of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, a multi-scale analysis of soil erosion dynamics was performed. At sub-catchment level, the dynamics of...

Effects of combinations of land use history and nitrogen application on nitrate concentration in the groundwater (2003)

Sonneveld, M.P.W., Bouma, J.

Effects of differences in both land use history and levels of nitrogen (N) application on nitrate concentration in the groundwater were studied for permanent pastures located on a single soil series...

Refining soil survey information for a Dutch soil series using land use history (2002)

Sonneveld, M.P.W., Bouma, J., Veldkamp, A.

Differences in land-use history within soil series, although not influencing soil classification, lead to variability of non-diagnostic soil properties in soil databases. Regional studies that use...

Three-dimensional landscape process modelling : the effect of DEM resolution (2000)

Schoorl, J.M., Sonneveld, M.P.W., Veldkamp, A.

Many landscape models have been developed over the past decades; however, relatively little is known about handling the effects of changing spatial and temporal resolutions. Therefore, resolution...
