    Abstract

    The research project ''Nitrogen behaviour in soil in relatitin to oxygen, water, and temperature" of which results are presented in this report, was initiated by the werking group "Water, bodem en Lucht" of the Landinrichtingsdienst of the Netherlands. Purpose of the project was to provide possibilities to make predictions about long-term nitrate contamination of groundwater as a result of chosen scenarios in land and water use, taking into account the influences of environmental factors. For this purpose the presented model ANIMO has been developed. During the rnadelling process it became clear that the completed model ANIMO would also be able to give ether results, like nitrogen lead on surface waters and development of organic matter properties of a soil profile, so that it can be considered as a complete (although not in every aspect detailed) model of nitrogen behaviour.
