“…For groups of cattle at the field or paddock scale (< 0.5 km 2 ), tracer release (Griffith et al, 2008;Leytem et al, 2011), the integrated horizontal flux method (Laubach and Kelliher, 2004;Griffith et al, 2008), and the point-source dispersion modelling and measurement approach (McGinn et al, 2011;McGinn and Beauchemin, 2012) have demonstrated their usefulness. At the farm scale in-between (≈ 0.5-5 km 2 ), McGinn et al (2006) have used a combination of tracer release, line-averaged concentration measurements, and inverse modelling of fluxes.…”
