Natural/Small Water Retention Measures (NSWRMs) can help to mitigate conflicts among agricultural water uses and other human and environmental demands for water. Moreover, they can significantly contribute to an improved water quality and more resilient agriculture. Despite the existing comprehensive set of techniques to increase water and nutrient retention on both catchment and farm levels, knowledge is still lacking on the effectiveness of different scale- and region-specific measures across various soil climatic regions and agricultural systems, especially under changing climate conditions. The EU Horizon 2020 project OPTAIN aims to (i) identify efficient techniques for the retention and reuse of water and nutrients in small agricultural catchments across different biogeographical regions of Europe, and - in close cooperation with local actors - (ii) select NSWRMs at farm and catchment level and optimize their spatial allocation and combination based on environmental and economic sustainability indicators. All gained knowledge will be translated into a Learning Environment allowing analysis of trade-offs and synergies between multiple values/goals in the management and design of NSWRMs. The presentation will discuss the flow of the project that comprises of: a) the establishment of Multi-Actor Reference Groups in each case study, b) identifying and documenting NSWRMs and its potentials and constraints, c) modelling the environmental (SWAT+ for the catchment scale and SWAP (Soil Water Atmosphere Plant) for the field-scale) and socio-economic performance of NSWRMs in 14 case studies, d) a multi-objective allocation and combination of NSWRMs, e) policy analysis and recommendations, and f) the establishment of the Learning Environment. More specifically, we will highlight the challenge of constructing SWAT+ model setups that are methodologically harmonized across all case studies and allow for a routing between contiguous field-scale objects. We will briefly introduce into workflows currently developed to overcome this challenge, which we believe can provide great benefit for the wider model community as well as the potential for implementation of the attained knowledge into practice.

The deliverable D2.3 of the OPTAIN project introduces a framework and scale specific guidelines for the parameterization of Natural/Small Water Retention Measures (NSWRM) in modelling approaches. More specifically, it provides a detailed translation of NSWRM into parameters and design approaches for the application in the SWAT+ (catchment scale) and SWAP (field-scale) models, which were selected as the main modelling tools in the OPTAIN project. This document can also be considered as an extension of the well-known Conservation Practice Modelling Guide for SWAT and APEX (Waidler et al., 2011), which is frequently used by the SWAT modelling community for testing the effectiveness of conservation practices. However, besides of conservation practices, the report focuses mainly on NSWRMs, and how they can be implemented in SWAT+, the new and restructured version of SWAT. Analogously, the NSWRM parameters are also described for the SWAP model, which is addressing the field-scale. Compared to previous NSWRM modelling approaches, this methodology enables the setting of NSWRM parameters in the two selected models to improve the description of the related hydrological and hydrochemical processes.
