Abstract

Water quality and ecology models, developed by Alterra, are described which are potentially interesting for supporting policy and management decision of the Dutch State water Board. Models are divided into model types dealing with nutrient processes (ANIMO and SMART models), nutrient effects (KRW-ECHO, MITERRA, and PLEASE), pesticide processes (TOXSWA and PEARL), nature processes (LARCH, SUMO2, and Natuurplanner), nature effects (METAPHOR), nature norms (GRAADMETER Natuurwaarde and EHS graadmeter), planning tools (Waterwijs and EUReyeopener), and water processes (SWAP and SIMGRO-MetaSWAP).
