annual leachate rate Brandenburg
Description
The annual leachate rate (SWR) describes the estimated mean leachate amount in mm/a using a calculation method (TUB-BGR), which leaves the soil downwards taking into account capillary ascent. The leachate formed contributes to the new groundwater formation and/or leaves the leachate zone as an intermediate discharge. The leachate rate is a decisive input size for water balance calculations or hydrogeological groundwater modelling. It also significantly controls the shift of harmful substances and nutrients (e.g. Nitrate) in soil and indirectly influences location suitability for flora and fauna.
