*3.7.4.6 Sediment transport models*

These models focus on sediment dynamics and how they transport phosphorus. They help understand erosion, sedimentation, and the release of phosphorus from sediment into the water column.

### *3.7.4.7 Nutrient loading models*

Nutrient loading models estimate the amount of phosphorus entering aquatic systems from various sources, such as agricultural runoff, urban stormwater, and wastewater discharge.

#### *3.7.4.8 Scenario analysis*

Modeling allows researchers to explore different scenarios and assess the potential outcomes of management strategies. For example, they can predict the effects of reducing phosphorus inputs from specific sources.
